Between 1963 and 1969, The Beatles issued ephemeral holiday
greetings to members of their fan club on flexidiscs. These were
collected onto an LP in 1970, but for the most part, escaped a
proper issue for the masses (excepting the 2017 limited edition
set).
In this holiday edition of SATB, Gary Wenstrup (Beatles
Olympiad shows) and I take a deep dive into the history
of these recordings, providing context and analysis. In their way,
the seven messages serve as a microcosm of the group's career,
reflecting the state of the band each year.
