1969 Happy Christmas Holiday Flexi-Disc
This is the last of a series of blog posts about The Beatles’ Christmas flexi-discs. This is the 1969 Happy Christmas holiday flexi-disc. The cover features a photograph by Ringo. To me, it looks like the inner workings of a mind…light plotches everywhere, little pieces of thought blurry…
The record was released December 19, 1969 on Parlophone Records, running almost eight minutes. Once again it was recorded separately in the fall of 1969. George and Ringo were barely on the album, and John and Paul were on it extensively. Paul sings his “This is to Wish You a Merry, Merry Christmas,” to the fans.
This flexi-disc makes me a bit sad, because it is the end of The Beatles. They didn’t even get together to make the album. :-/ But as always, I’m grateful for the kind words from the boys!
Great post! Maybe you could do a follow up on this topic?
