Groovy tune.

I Am The Walrus & Strawberry Fields Forever are my faves from that record.
(Lennon rules, McCartney drools lol)

Correction edit:
Looks like that was a colab.
I thought Ringo penned it.

I think that's the Beatles only instrumental. Am I right?

MY favorite Beatles album, and I listened to it today! I totally know what u mean about "Flying". Ringo's drum kit is especially funky here.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.... MMT is probably one of my favorites. My father used to take me driving when I was little...and pop this 8 track in. And at the end of "FLYING"..we would (in really deep voices) sing.. LA LA LA LU LU LAAAAA

Good memories....

One of their best psychedelic cuts. It (almost) works as a long intro to "Blue Jay Way".

That whole first of that album is something out of the ordinary.. beautiful masterpiece..

George starts showing major contributions at this point.. Blue Jay Way is just about the most accomplished song on the album

I think it was a collaboration between all four Beatles and credits the writers as Lennon/ McCartney/ Harrison/ Starkey.

Sorry guys but I got to dump on "Flying". Never was a big fan of Magical Mystery Tour or the Beatles' psychedelic music. I much prefer Rubber Soul, Revolver, The Beatles and Abbey Road. I do like "Baby You're A Rich Man".

In addition to the above tracks "The End" is almost an instrumental (barring the "in the end the love you make is equal to the love you make" bit. there's a lot of jamming on that one.)

If I'm not mistaken wasn't the original version of "Flying" over ten minutes long, 12 maybe? I haven't heard it but I believe it is circulating, unofficially, of course.

Within You Without You is one of his masterpieces no doubt.. but Blue Jay Way has studio mastery.. its just a gem that goes unoticed to easily.. he was exteremly experimental at this stage.. i love it
