Today's Video Link

Hey, do you remember when The Beatles starred on a Saturday morning cartoon show? I do and I recall it as having real cheap animation but fast-moving and clever scripts along with (of course) some real good music. My pal Jack Mendelsohn, who I mentioned here the other day, was one of the writers and I knew some other folks who were involved. They all remembered working real fast for real low money but apart from that, I didn't know a whole lot about the show…not until I came across this video.

And before I got around to posting it here, I received a number of e-mails from folks telling me about it and saying I ought feature it here. So I hereby feature it here. I guess it's pretty accurate…although they show a clip from the Rankin-Bass Frosty the Snowman special and identify the voice actor in it as Paul Frees, when it was in fact Billy DeWolfe. But I think the rest of it's pretty solid…
