Letter From Britain

The Walrus Was Ringo!

They've just re-released the twenty-two original Beatles singles, plus Yesterday,.

July 1, 1976
Simon Frith

They've just re-released the twentytwo original Beatles singles, plus Yesterday," which never was a single here before. Three of them are in the top thirty already, "Yesterday" climbing fastest, and the rest are bubbling under. It won't be long methinks, before the Beatles hold every place from one to twenty, and our lives, according to a prophesy I read in 1964, will then be over. A dumb way to. go and I also think, listening to these tracks on the radio, hour after hour, that the Beatles are the most overrated group ever — they're so chirpy and they don't understand the principles of disco dancing at all.
