Was Bill a confederate in a previous life? Maybe he's a multiple personality and this particular alter was a Civil War "re enactor". Bill has many faces.....

In so many pictures Bill really looks weird or has a total spastic expression on his face. I agree that anyone saying they are the same man seriously needs to see their optometrist! Bill's face keeps shifting or changing......shapeshifter? ?

Yo, don't get me wrong, say what you feel sma just stuff like "spastic" is totally out of order IMO.

Okay, not meaning to make fun or rude remarks about people with natural disabilities; however, his facial expression are often really stupid, dumb, idiotic, ridiculous...........anything else? Besides, I am from the Beatle generation and we didn't have all this crap about politically correctness. We have politically corrected ourselves into the ridiculous when we can't even say "Merry Christmas"..................why can we never get the pendulum to go to the middle? It either swings too much right or too much left and never reaches a point of intelligence. Of course, we all know SMA has a bad habit of "telling it like it is". ;D

Bill is the rubberfaced man.....
Maybe he is some mutant experiment by some mad scientist. I have referred to him in other places as "FrankenFaul" or Maccastein...something like that....

There was a comic book-parody piece in one of the early National Lampoons (early or mid 1970s, not sure exactly what issue) with the storyline of each of the Beatles being assembled like Frankenstein's monsters in the basement laboratory of a former Nazi scientist in Hamburg, whom the evil German would release into the world to manipulate people and society into his warped new world order. I'd like to find that piece. With what we know about Faul, government control of the Beatles and the Hitler-Liverpool connections (not yet posted in this forum) it's possible this obscure, angry piece could have clues or at least some unintentionally produced relevance.
..... [Minutes later ...] Wait, I found some pages of this on the web, it's from the 1977 National Lampoon Beatles issue, here's the link:
[ftp]http://es.geocities.com/beatlescomicsmelgar3/natlampoon.html[/ftp]
This was written by John Hughes, the former Madison Avenue advertising copy writer and National Lampoon editor, originally from the Midwest, who it just so happens would go on to become, in the 1980s, the ultra-successful writer/ director of Hollywood movies National Lampoon's Vacation with Chevy Chase, Weird Science, Sixteen Candles, Pretty In Pink, the Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Planes, Trains and Automobiles, The Breakfast Club, Home Alone, Curly Sue, 101 Dalmations, Flubber, Uncle Buck ... Hughes' work also gives the impression of Hughes being an elitist, sneering, arrogant racist. A perfect match for the backsliding, right wing trends of the American media in the 70s, 80s and 90s.

"the Hitler-Liverpool connections (not yet posted in this forum)"
Yeh I asked for info about that a while ago and heard nothing. Now everyone knows of the "Hitler-Liverpool connection" but know nothing about it.

Hitler was a Theosophist, as he was a follower of Helena Blavatsky. She was also one of Elvis' spiritual inspiration.
Study more about the house of Theosophy.

Food for thought. I have read about Madame Blavatsky before. I have never read of an Elvis connection with her.

I saw a 4 part video about "They Sold Their Souls To Rock And Roll" and on the first tape was about Elvis. He was not what he appeared to be. He was into Madame B's writings very much so. Members of the Memphis Mafia talked about supernatural things that happened around him.

I hadn't heard that about Elvis. That is truly interesting. I hadn't been a big Elvis fan although it was supposed to be a big rags to riches story as I recall.

Yes and Elvis' mother was of Jewish lineage. Which seems strange for a man who has this image of being a poor southern boy turned king of rock and roll.

That is strange. I never knew that Elvis was into the supernatural or that he was of Jewish descent.

I didn't either, but it was something I learned recently, if I can remember where I found that info out, I will post it. It's hard to get time for this, let alone going back to find documentation.

I read an article about this. Elvis was 1/16 Jewish on his mother's side.

Here's one that FP (aka Larry King) posted at MMH. What's odd is the caption says June 22, 1966 for the Revolver sessions! The Beatles were touring by June 22, '66, weren't they? Revolver was already finished by then. It's most likely a year, 2 albums and a singer off. I don't think there's any question, it's Bill in '67.

That's a very fake looking Faul above ... Lennon's "Ono sideboard [sideburns]" lyrics definitely fits the Bill here.

Jerusalem entering Solomon's Temple to sprinkle incense. Pardon my fascination with the milieu of the ancient Hebrews, but this strange, voluminous garment is as "mod" as it is from antiquity. Shalom, y'all.
