2021-08: A receita de sopa de lentilhas de...

Paul McCartney nos créditos finais de um episódio dos Simpsons. Invertida? 
Sim:
https://www.cbr.com/simpsons-end-credits-paul-mccartney-lentil-soup-recipe/

Citando:
"When played in reverse, the strange mumbling reveals as McCartney reciting his lentil soup recipe. Some ingredients include one medium onion chopped, two tablespoons vegetable oil and one clove garlic crushed. The end of the recipe also features a small line where McCartney states, “By the way, I’m alive.” The line references a 1966 conspiracy in which Paul was supposedly killed in a car accident and replaced with a lookalike.

The Simpsons always finds a way to keep things fresh for its fans after decades of episodes. But it's Easter eggs like Paul McCartney's recipe that show just how many surprises are littered throughout the series. However, it's hard to say how many more are still hiding in plain sight with so many episodes."

2021-01: Learn eye yoga with...

... Paul McCartney!

https://ultimateclassicrock.com/paul-mccartney-eyesight/

Citando:
"The former Beatle said he discovered the exercises in India, where a yogi explained the reasoning to him.

“He explained that your eyes are muscles whereas your ears aren’t, so you can’t exercise your ears,” McCartney noted on a recent episode of Table Manners With Jessie Ware. “But your eyes, you can.” He went on to explain how this works: “So, head still, and then you look up as far as you can – one, two, three – go back to the middle, then down – one, two, three – then back to the middle. You do three lots of that, then go to the left and the right. Now you’ve got a cross, up and down and sideways; now you do the diagonals.”"

2021-02: Yoko Ono, George Harrison and... biscuits?

During the official GH IG account happy birthday to Yoko Ono who recently most of the comments there were regarding biscuits. I found some explanation on this here:
https://www.quora.com/George-Harrison-had-very-little-good-to-say-about-Yoko-Ono-What-were-the-incidents-that-led-to-this
Quoting (one of the answers):
"During the Abbey Road sessions, John and Yoko were away during part of the recording because John crashed his car and they had to be hospitalized. When John returned, he had a bed placed in the studio for Yoko who claimed she was still recuperating. The often told story about Yoko getting up to take George’s biscuits that he kept on his amp and George erupting in anger, was not about her taking his biscuit, but that it was clear evidence that she was not really bedridden and having a bed in the studio was just her being manipulative and demanding."

Always learning, all these years after. :)

George Harrison prank on Phil Collins

An account of a funny story I had already heard about, occurred on the occasion of remastering of the triple album "All Things Must Pass":
https://www.good.is/amp/phil-collins-george-harrison-prank-song-2650436438

Quoting:
"Collins was devastated, to say the least.

A while later, Stewart calls Collins and puts Harrison on the line. "'Did you get the tape?' Harrison asked. "I now realize I was fired by a Beatle," Collins sighed. The two changed the subject, but a few minutes later, Harrison couldn't stop laughing.

"Don't worry, it was a piss-take. I got Ray Cooper to play really badly and we dubbed it on," Harrison admitted. "Thought you'd like it!" So, Harrison had an entire recording session with a conga player who he asked to play poorly, just to pull one over on Collins."

2019-12-29: Morre Neil Innes...

... porcessado por ATV Music (que publica algumas das músicas dos Beatles nos EUA):
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2019/dec/30/neil-innes-the-rutles-monty-python-dies

Citando:
"Innes’ spoof songs were targeted by Beatles publisher ATV Music who successfully argued that Lennon and McCartney should be added to the songwriting credits, and settled out of court with Innes’ publisher. After another legal dispute, Innes was added to the credits of Oasis’s song Whatever, which was deemed to have imitated his song How Sweet to Be an Idiot. “The music business is like a school where big boys come and take your candy away,” Innes said in 2013. “No other business in the world gets away with stealing like the music business – apart from banking.”"
