Memories of “Magical Mystery Tour”!!!
Beatle historian Bruce Spizer is collecting stories and remembrances about “Magical Mystery Tour”–both the album and the movie, so I thought I’d supply a couple of mine! I felt that “Magical Mystery Tour” came fairly quickly after “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.” “Pepper” was released on June 1, 1967, and the summer was barely…
