@essjayjay @Black_Flag Those Peter Sellers records of the 60s were what George Martin cut his production teeth on along with Bernard Cribbins.

@essjayjay @Black_Flag Those Peter Sellers records of the 60s were what George Martin cut his production teeth on along with Bernard Cribbins. The fledgling Beatles must've thought he was just that guy that helped make novelty hits. My parents had Peter Sellers doing She Loves You (as Dr Strangelove and Laurence Olivier characters) in their record collection.

@essjayjay @Black_Flag Oh yes. Maybe it's that one i was thinking of for the Laurence Olivier Henry V type character. Man everybody jumped on the Lennon McCartney gravy train didn't they.
