Rich HumphreyTime for an annual tradition of mine #thebeatles #chrstmas messages
I tend to listen to the '68 and '69 ones first, '68 is where it all started to fall apart and George is in a grump, and I skip most of the '69 one as there is way too much John and Yoko loved up soppiness!
The rest however contain classic Beatle humour and weirdness aplenty! :)
And I'll have Good King Wenceslas and Rudolf the Red Nosed Ringo stuck in my head all month now thanks guys 😅
