I'm speechless. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SauoefwQrnQ"Here is the original theatrical trailer to the ULTRARARE 1976 film, All This and World War II. This is surely one of the most bizarre cult classics of all time, a mixture of vintage WWII footage (including nazis edited to march back and forth in time to the music) with a soundtrack of Beatles classics, as rerecorded by: Ambrosia, Elton John, the Bee Gees, Leo Sayer, Bryan Ferry, Roy Wood, Keith Moon, Rod Stewart, David Essex, Jeff Lynne, Lynsey De Paul, Richard Cocciante, The Four Seasons, Helen Reddy, Frankie Laine, the Brothers Johnson, Status Quo, Henry Gross, Peter Gabriel, Frankie Valli, Tina Turner, Will Malone, and the London Symphony Orchestra" [glow=yellow,2,300]WTF? !![/glow] |

Bill Shepherd's The Bee Gees (so named because "B.G." was the abbreviation for "Beatles Group") is in there too, doing what Beatles song(s)? Two years later they made the movie of "Sgt. Pepper." Did "Fifth Beatle Bill" Liverpudlian William Patrick Hitler (cover of Sgt. Pepper Statue) do any v.o. narration? Maybe a cameo? The Hamburg Silver Beetles. Sie Lieb Dich/ Gib Mir Deine Hande.  William Patrick Hitler, Age 18  ![]() i55.photobucket.com/albums/g134/antiKitano/Pepper27s_reflection.jpg[/img]"Bill Shepherd" is the English translation of "Bill Hitler": "Hitler" (hittler) is the Old German word for "shepherd." See also the "Lennon" cartoon in "Skywriting by Word of Mouth" of Adolf Hitler holding the Spear of Destiny commanding a flock of sheep. A lot of Japanese WWII footage in there; do the selected songs make a connection with Yoko Yasuda Ono? Just from the trailer: "Here Comes the Sun King" as Axis Japan warplanes swoop in on Pearl Harbor. The Rising Sun of the Japanese Empire. The Sun King is Emperor Hirohito. Hitler and the Nazi SS also made an occult deification of the sun. |

""How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" It sounded so much like the Beatles that many were convinced... "
What idiot wrote that?!
I'll grant that some of the Bee Gees' songs had PID/PWR clues in them, though, imo.
Specifically: "Holiday" and "I Started a Joke". Probably others.

Anyone who thought the Bee Gees were Beatles soundalikes.. What were they smoking? Taking a set of initials with no other corresponding information and concluding it has some Beatle connection is overreaching BIG time.
Badfinger was the group that had everyone chattering about the "Beatles in disguise", at least somewhat plausible. (Apple artist, a McCartney song authorship, etc.)

In "The Rutles" the Yoko Ono character is described as having a father (a German Nazi) who "invented World War II." Not too far off actually from the activities of Yoko's Yasuda dynasty and Eisuke Ono. And then there's the whole Adolf Hitler-Liverpool-William Patrick Hitler thing/Sgt. Pepper cover Hitler clues. www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI1tdvH2L4U |
