Yellow Submarine at The Belcourt and Heinz Edelmann's Enduring Influence

I’m willing to bet that a lot of Scene readers are like me: They’ve spent their lives so immersed in The Beatles’ catalog and lore that they reflexively know way more about the band than they really want to. So I’m going to skip over all the Beatle-centric core of Yellow Submarine and get to the good stuff:

Beatles Museum in Baltimore ?

The metal sign reads Abbey Road above the door. It is the gateway to Ruxton resident Frank Lidinsky’s collection of Beatles memorabilia. The 20- by 12-foot room harbors thousands of items he has organized in chronological order, including every 45 and album that John, Paul, George and Ringo ever made.

All This And World War ll – Watch how The Beatles lost the war

FANS of The Beatles hated All This And World War ll, a film that mashed up actual 1940s World War 2 footage with Hollywood actors pretending to fight in war films and set it to people singing songs by the Fab Four. This 1976 flick was not the work not of a Japanese fan in his mum’s basement but the mighty 20th Century Fox.
