The Beatles 1965 Christmas Record: Several off-key, a cappella - TopicsExpress



          

The Beatles 1965 Christmas Record: Several off-key, a cappella versions of Yesterday are dispersed throughout the record, alongside Lennons Happy Christmas to Ya Listnas, Auld Lang Syne, a one-and-a-half-line version of the Four Tops Its the Same Old Song and an original poem titled Christmas Comes But Once a Year. Members of the Beatles US fan-club did not receive this (or any) Christmas flexi-disc in 1965. Rather, they received a black and white postcard, with a photo of the Fab Four and the message Seasons Greetings – Paul, Ringo, George, John. The Beatle Bulletin, the publication of the US fan-club, explained in its April 1966 edition that the tape arrived too late to prepare the record in time for Christmas.
