I've never seen this George Harrison clip before .... how weird!
Gives a glimpse into his humour and why he set up hand made films ....

 

[JTL]

Is there any equivalent humour in music these days?
It was completely mad back then.
Freddie and the Dreamers and this lot!

This was 1962!
No way could you do this now.
We are no longer as free.
Like the smoking in the Dion clip ... no more no longer free people.


"Ahab the Arab" is a novelty song written and recorded by Ray Stevens in 1962. In the song, Arab is pronounced "Ay-rab" to rhyme with Ahab. The hero of the story is Clyde the camel and Stevens has made references to Clyde numerous times throughout his career.

What a strange little number this is frm Ringo.
Almost every line is from a Beatles song!
It's quite clever.

I wonder where he got that idea from ..........

Play loud!!!!!!!

How times change ......

Mr Chris and his band used to play this in a comedy/cabaret club in the 70"s but the drummer would add "sound effects" like shouting spalsh when they jumped in the river.

Never heard that one before.

My favourite Roy Harper I-may-have-smoked-one-or-two-too-many-herbal-cigarettes track is this one: (parental advisory, some mildly smutty language)
