Jan. 2, 1969: Hair, there and everywhere

Line of the day, directed at Paul during a discussion with director Michael Lindsay-Hogg:

“You going to keep the beard? You look like a Talmudic student.”

As it happened, one of the few covers they ran through on that day was Chuck Berry’s “Brown-Eyed Handsome Man.”

Thirty years later, Paul McCartney would record his own version of the song on Run Devil Run, and perhaps with his subconscious working overtime, among the video’s line dancers (around 52 seconds in) would be none other than…

(Albeit beardless). Coincidence. Absolutely. Right?

  1. Great work, thank you! Hey, I noticed that Peter Jackson muted George whistling when he tries to call the food server during their dry bun meal on Jan 2. Everything is heard, but the little whistle. Guess just another example of cosmetic editing. No one was speaking during the whistle, so there was no reason to mute it other than to make George look more polite
