John Lennon: "As far as I'm concerned, Shakespeare is a drag."
You don't need me to point out the links between Britain's greatest ever band and greatest ever bard this #FabFoolsFriday. #Shakespeare lovers the world over will love SHAKESPEARE'S MUSES OF FIRE, the new book from the Fab Fools author. #Beatles #Rutles #Comedy #Theatre✌🏾🎶🃏🎭🪶

Little more from The Krazees, this time it's their song 'Yeah Yeah Yeah' - assuming Zoe, Jamie and the audience can get past Blobby!

Sometimes I worry that all the Beatle fans worthy of the description have bought FAB FOOLS, the most entertaining Beatle book ever published… But then I realise that if they had, I'd be able to put food on my family's table, so they can't have.

Five years since I wrote and released the ultimate guide to The Beatles' comedy, all of their movies, funny songs, and the whole Rutles legend: FAB FOOLS. As ever, everyone else is now ripping me off. No book has ever been more unjustly overlooked. candy-jar.co.uk/books/fabfoo…

I love the way that this ‘anecdote’ only tells you how pompous and thin-skinned little Phil is.

It’s #FabFoolsFriday and it’s 60 years since the world first heard the comical masterpiece Yellow Submarine. Including Mr Spike Milligan, who shortly after went into a recording studio and made this: youtu.be/QTQhtZh0Wnw?is=2aW_… #Beatles #Goons #Comedy 🃏🎼✌🏽

It's naturally been a bit Macca-heavy round here of late, so for this #FabFoolsFriday, here's a wee breather – the short animation inspired by John Lennon's sketchbooks: youtube.com/watch?v=HpuXfQHB… 🎶✌🏾🃏

Sounds legit. Peas and luv.
The ultimate last word on The Beatles' comedy, all their movies, every Beatle spoof ever, so The Rutles and the whole universe of rock 'n' roll comedy – FAB FOOLS! hive.co.uk/Product/Jem-Rober…
NB Claiming to be a Beatles fan without having read this book is both risible and sick.
