    Can't hear the Beatles influence re the beat...I was ten at the time & straight off, the beat was Glad All Over by the Dave Clark Five which had been a hit a few months earlier. As for the `Croony, fatuous, singing....I must assume you dislike Neil Sedaka, who you could very easily assume is singing along with the DCF here?

    I think I might like Long Tall Weekend better than even you, because it was the first TMBG album I remember coming out when I was a kid (I was 4) and I was so excited for new TMBG songs. "She Thinks She's Edith Head" and "Maybe I Know" were my favorite songs for many years (replacing "Put Your Hand Inside the Puppet Head" which was apparently my fav song as a toddler...) I didn't even know it was an eMusic album until this video, since I guess my parents must have immediately burned it onto a CD so we could all listen in the car, and I think they printed out the cover art for the CD case too! Great breakdown, definitely an album that holds up, I agree that the song sequencing is really well done! Funnily enough, I did always know "Edison Museum" wasn't Flans, because the song always scared me as a kid and the sudden unfamiliar voice made it creepier to me (and yes my dad did tell me and my brother he'd take us there when we "quarreled")

    All we have to do is watch the Get Back documentary to know that the Paul is dead. Conspiracy theory is total bullshit. The amount of reminiscing from the old days is proof enough. Not to mention that Paul’s family would’ve never gone for it. They wouldn’t have anything to do with the fake Paul.

    If only you'd had the French EP as the other 2 songs are great, particularly 'I Can't Keep From Crying' which was originally a 1929 Blues song by Blind Willie Johnson and was covered by The Blues Project featuring Al Kooper. The Random Blues band version is pure snarly Garage Rock and nothing like the godawful Winchester Cathedral.

    It would probably help if you would shut your mouth while the record was playing so someone could actually listen to it. Your clueless opinion is not important enough to listen to during the song.

    They had three excellent singles (actually more but three must hears). Love You So Much was a big hit in Chicago when they were still relatively unknown nationally, then I Will Always Think About You (#1 @ WLS Chicago/#22 on Billboard's Hot 100) and the one you just listened to are their three best IMO and I have them all (central Illinois born and raised).

    "Have I the Right?" was the debut single and biggest hit of British band The Honeycombs. It was written by Ken Howard and Alan Blaikley, who were impressed by the group's lead vocalist, Dennis D'Ell, and the fact that they had a female drummer, Anne (‘Honey’) Lantree. The group were looking for material to play for an audition with record producer Joe Meek, and they played the songs Howard and Blaikley had just given them. Meek decided to record one of them, "Have I the Right?", there and then. Meek used his apartment at 304 Holloway Road, Islington (North London) as a recording studio. Three U.K. No.1 hits were produced there: "Johnny Remember Me" by John Leyton in 1961, "Telstar" by The Tornados in 1962, and the last of them, "Have I the Right?" in 1964 Conspicuous in "Have I the Right?" is the prominent part of the drums that carry the song. Their effect was enhanced by having the members of the group stamp their feet on the wooden stairs to the studio. Meek recorded the sound with five microphones he had fixed to the banisters with bicycle clips. For the finishing touch someone beat a tambourine directly onto a microphone. The recording was somewhat speeded up (as were a lot of Meek’s productions), reportedly to the disappointment of Dennis D'Ell, who regretted that he could not reproduce this sound on stage

    To all PID Believers watch the "James Paul McCartney" TV special 1973 (here on KZread for everyone to see) at the 20 minutes mark there's a McCartney family get together in a Liverpool pub, they're all getting pissed (drunk) calling him Paul singing along with him and showering him with kisses! Now how is it that his Dad, aunties, uncles and cousins, can not see that it's not their Paul, the one they have grown up with, the one they have always known, but he's in fact an imposter named Billy?

    You are right, a lot of studio musicians here, however, on Daydream, Mike is playing rhythm guitar and the harmonics, Peter Piano. Goin down has both Mike & Peter on guitar, possibly Peter on bass (different liner notes state different things)

    The truth is, if Paul is dead Elvis is still alive. Chew on that one. The Paul McCartney we know and love today is the same guy who sacked off school with his buddy John as teenagers, went up to John’s bedroom, and wrote their first tune together called “17”…… what we all know now as I Saw Her Standing There. Same guy. Ya’ll are full of wacky tobacky.

    You are one perceptive listener -- all your predictions about this song came true -- the "Baroque" quality, the "claustrophobic" sound. I loved this song in May 1971, when it reached #22 on the top-forty chart on WARM-590 AM in Wilkes-Barre-Scranton. Of course it's too short, as you say, but that's because there isn't really a chorus or a middle 8. On the other hand, it does have variety in the way the harmony changes with each repetition. Nice job.
