Magical mystery tour.

Release date: 27 November 1967

"It was like we were in another phase of our career you know we'd done all the live stuff and that was marvellous, now we were into being more artists. We got more freedom to be artists." PAUL

"If you think it was good, keep it, if you don't, scrap it." JOHN

"You have success with something that might have seemed like a far out idea, people had said wow this is great and so when we'd come back again George would be really quite keen to try, what other ideas have you got?" GEORGE

"And now we are going to play a track from Magical Mystery Tour which is one of my favourite albums because it was so weird I Am The Walrus, one of my favourite tracks because I did it of course but also cos it's one of those that has enough little bitties going to keep you interested even a hundred years later." JOHN

"The Beatles songs had started to sound more individual from Revolver onwards or even before then." GEORGE MARTIN

The Beatles devised, wrote and directed a television film called Magical Mystery Tour which was broadcast on BBC Television at Christmas, 1967

Even before Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, had hit the shops, the idea of the programme had been born and work had commenced on the title track.

It was decided that the soundtrack for the programme would be released on two seven inch discs which would be packaged with a booklet in a gatefold sleeve. The booklet contained stills from the show along with a comic strip telling the story. A lyric sheet was also stapled into the centrespread of the booklet. The EP was a runaway success and reached no. 2 in the UK singles chart, held off the top spot by their own single... "Hello, Goodbye".

In the US, the double-EP format was not considered viable so instead, Capitol Records created an album by placing the six songs from the EP on side one of an album and drawing side two from the titles that had appeared on singles in 1967. These titles were "Strawberry Fields Forever", "Penny Lane", "All You Need Is Love" - their anthem that had been broadcast around the world via Satellite in June. "Baby, You're A Rich Man" and their current single, "Hello, Goodbye". The US release made # 1 in early January 1968 and stayed there for eight weeks. Its initial chart run lasted 59 weeks.

1967 had certainly been a year of great achievement but it was also tinged with sadness. Brian Epstein, The Beatles' manager since 1961 passed away on 27th August, 1967 at the age of 32.

The US configuration for Magical Mystery Tour was later adopted by many other countries (including the UK in 1976). When the Beatles catalogue was first issued on Compact Disc in 1987, Magical Mystery Tour joined the core list of titles.

If they aren't already planning so, the Beatles should start planning their next full-length film immediately. After watching a rough cut of their 'Magical Mystery Tour', which BBC viewers can see on Boxing Day. I am convinced they are extremely capable of writing and directing a major movie for release on one of the major cinema circuits. The film sequences for the musical numbers are extremely clever. For 'Blue Jay Way' George is seen sitting cross-legged in a sweating mist which materialises into a variety of shapes and patterns. It's a pity that most TV viewers will be able to see it only in black and white. 'I Am The Walrus' has four of them togged up in animal costumes switching at times to them bobbing across the screen as egg-men. A special word of praise for Ringo, who more than the others comes over very, very funnily. But praise to all of them for making a most entertaining film. I only wish they would now put out a sequel made up from the parts they left on the cutting-room floor. NME July 20, 1967

The Meaning Behind “Magical Mystery Tour” by The Beatles and the Subtext Running Just Beneath the Surface

by Jim Beviglia February 27, 2024, 8:00 am

Four individual movies about the four Beatles due in 2027? Sounds like a fascinating project, just like the one the Fab Four embarked on when they made the film Magical Mystery Tour in 1967. Although the film served as fodder for critics, the title track delivered a jolt of psychedelic energy and still stands as one of The Beatles ‘ most strikingly original singles.

Videos by American Songwriter

What does this song mean? What exactly is a “Magical Mystery Tour”? And why was the film that contained it one of the few artistic endeavors by The Beatles met with less than universal acclaim? Let’s take a look at the origin and meaning of this classic.

“Tour” of Duty

It’s a common misconception that The Beatles made the Magical Mystery Tour film because they insisted on pressing on with some project following the death of their manager Brian Epstein . In truth, the “Magical Mystery Tour” song sessions took place months before Epstein’s death in September 1967, and filming for the movie was already underway when he died.

In any case, Paul McCartney did indeed push for the band to continue a busy pace in 1967, perhaps to stave off the lethargy that might have accompanied their lack of touring. Hence, the sessions for “Magical Mystery Tour” took place just days after the group had put a bow on Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band . McCartney explained in the Barry Miles’ book Paul McCartney: Many Years From Now what inspired the song:

“John and I remembered mystery tours, and we always thought this was a fascinating idea: getting on a bus and not knowing where you were going. Rather romantic and slightly surreal! All these old dears with the blue rinses going off to mysterious places. Generally there’s a crate of ale in the boot of the coach and you sing lots of songs. It’s a charabanc trip. So we took that idea and used it as a basis for a song and the film.”

John Lennon and McCartney wrote the song from that basic idea. The recording manages to sound both refreshingly old-fashioned, thanks to the bright, shiny brass, and eerily forward-looking, courtesy of the somewhat unsettling coda. It was yet another example of The Beatles’ ability to meld different music styles, all while keeping things undeniably catchy. The group released the song as a single in the United Kingdom to precede the film’s release, and it went to No. 2 in the British charts.

As for the film, The Beatles created a surreal pastiche that felt less like a coherent film and more like a collection of skits. Its avant-garde silliness isn’t all that unlike what Monty Python would do in the coming years. But at the time, viewers and critics were baffled. The Fab Four had to endure some of the first negative reviews of their career. The music, which included beauties like the title track, “The Fool on the Hill,” and “I Am the Walrus,” proved that they were certainly on top of their game in that department.

The Meaning of “Magical Mystery Tour”

Taken at face value, “Magical Mystery Tour” does indeed refer to a bus trip. But there’s a subtext running just below the surface that isn’t too hard to realize. The year 1967, when the song was released, stood out as a time in history when drug experimentation was running rampant through the culture. The Beatles had already used a few of their songs to promote psychedelia, including when they sang, I’d love to turn you on at the end of “A Day in the Life” to close out Sgt. Pepper’s .

That idea seems to be working its way through “Magical Mystery Tour.” McCartney, who sings the lead vocal, takes on the role of a barker trying to get crowds of people to join the traveling circus: Roll up for the magical mystery tour / Step right this way . You can certainly take it literally if you wish. But the idea of a mystery trip that’s going to take you away certainly could refer to tripping on acid or some other recreational drug.

Perhaps that’s why the movie failed. It attempted to put definitive visuals on a mind-altering journey. But it couldn’t quite capture the flights of fancy conjured by the song “Magical Mystery Tour,” which gives you the perfect soundtrack for the movie in your mind.

UK EP release: Magical Mystery Tour

More than two weeks before its accompanying film received its premiere on BBC television, The Beatles’ Magical Mystery Tour EP was released.

As The Beatles had six songs for release, it was decided that they would release a double-EP set. The package came with a gatefold sleeve and a 28-page book, including lyrics. This retailed at twice the normal price of a single.

The EP had the catalogue number Parlophone MMT 1 (mono) and SMMT 1 (stereo). It was the first Beatles EP to be issued in both mono and stereo.

Magical Mystery Tour entered the charts on 13 December, and spent 12 weeks in the top 40. Its highest chart position was number two on the singles chart, the dedicated EP chart having been abandoned at the start of December 1967. It was held off the top spot by The Beatles’ own ‘Hello, Goodbye’ .

The EP retailed at 19 shillings and sixpence. It had advance orders in the UK of 400,000, and by mid January 1968 had sold 600,000.

The two-disc EP was reissued in 2012 as part of the deluxe Blu-ray edition of Magical Mystery Tour .

Hi, not for inclusion on the site, just for my own curiosity) do you know if the release of Magical Mystery Tour and its subsequent No. 2 singles chart placing warranted an appearance on BBC tvs Top of the Pops show? Obviously with Hello Goodbye at Number one during its highest chart placing, two appearances, albeit in pre-recorded promotional video I should have thought unlikely but if they did appear during its chart run did MMT have its own single length promo film, maybe of the like that the BBC put together for Hello Goodbye in black and white as an alternative to their own colour one. Thanks for your time. Bill

I own a UK “Magical Mystery Tour” double EP, a gift from a friend in Newcastle. In the top right corner of the back cover it says “MMT-1 MONO.” And indeed, most of the mixes are mono, except for the track “Flying,” which is in stereo! Any explanation for this?

I think the magical Mystery Tour and Yellow Submarine releases (all songs on MMT and some songs on YS being recorded in 1967 I believe) would have made a great album combined. I find ‘Flying’ to be one of most dull Beatles songs ever (their final stab at releasing the ’12 bar original that’s so grating on Anthology 2!); I find ‘Your Mother Should Know’ to be just tolerable, and certainly not up there with ANYTHING on Pepper or revolver. I know Hello Goodbye is a fan fave but to my mind it isn’t in the same league as Getting Better or say McCartney’s work after MMT. So this leaves Walrus, All You Need is Love, Fool on the Hill, Baby You’re a Rich man, Magical Mystery Tour, Blue Jay Way and the Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields single. Those songs are all (mostly) great, and if you added It’s all Too Much, Hey Bulldog (which I know was recorded after the E.P), All Together Now (ditto) and It’s Only a northern Song, that would be a formidable Beatles album, and you wouldn’t have Yellow Submarine album as I guess an ‘official’ Beatles album, lacking so much as an actual album.

Forgive me (‘It’s not for me to forgive you Derek, it’s for your psychiatrist’-Al Capp) but I have these ‘dream album line-ups’ from various years, like my all-time-favourite Beatles album would be Pepper instead of Revolver/White Album tie if the former had dropped When I’m 64 and She’s leaving Home and added Strawberry Fields and Penny lane.

You can see the ‘music hall’ McCartney that ultimately gave us ‘You gave me the Answer’ in Wings (yech) really creeping in here after I would imagine the good reception When I’m 64 got. Here, Your Mother Should Know continues this train-of-inspiration that brings us forth to Honey pie, Ob La Di & Maxwell, ‘granny music s**t’ according to Lennon (and me).

Back in 2012, the “Magical Mystery Tour” EP was released as part of a very colourful special collector’s edition box set and it not only contains a remastered version of the original mono double EP with faithfully replicated artwork (gatefold and booklet included) and Parlophone labels, but also a customized MMT ticket, an officially restored version of the original movie (or more precisely, TV special, being too short for theatrical release) on both DVD and Blu-Ray discs (the customer has a choice as which format to view it on) and a very interesting booklet containing historical information, facsimiles of invoices, diary entries, filming dates/locations, behind-the-scenes photographs and even mini biographies for each of the actors in the film.

MMT holds the distinction of being both my favourite Beatles movie as well as the first Beatles vinyl record that I bought brand new as opposed to purchasing a second-hand original vinyl copy – the EP, that is. I bought it at my local JB Hi-Fi along with a vinyl copy of “Future Games” by Fleetwood Mac, neither of which I have ever owned original vinyl copies of, and when I first saw the movie in its entirety, having only seen snippets of it in the “Anthology” documentary, I absolutely loved it and as I have stated above, it’s my favourite Beatles movie.

Magical Mystery Tour: THE BEATLES

+ scroll down for The Fool on the Hill by The Beatles

Australian singles chart: The Magical Mystery Tour double EP entered the Kent charts on 16 March 1968 and peaked at #3. The EP was #42 on the Top 100 of 1968.

Songwriters: John Lennon, Paul McCartney

Producer: George Martin

Record label of Australian release: Parlophone

BONUS CLIP BELOW – The Fool on the Hill

Wikipedia: Magical Mystery Tour was released in late 1967 as a double EP in the United Kingdom and an LP in the United States. It includes the soundtrack to the 1967 television film of the same name. The EP contained Magical Mystery Tour , The Fool on the Hill , I Am the Walrus and three other songs. After the Beatles completed Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band in April 1967, Paul McCartney wanted to create a film that captured a psychedelic theme similar to that represented by author and LSD proponent Ken Kesey’s Merry Pranksters on the US West Coast. Titled Magical Mystery Tour , it would combine Kesey’s idea of a psychedelic bus ride with McCartney’s memories of Liverpudlians holidaying on coach tours. The film was to be unscripted: various “ordinary” people were to travel on a coach and have unspecified “magical” adventures. The film idea then lay dormant while The Beatles worked on other projects but was picked up later in 1967 after their manager Brian Epstein died of a prescription drug overdose. McCartney suggested they proceed with Magical Mystery Tour to give them a point of focus after Epstein’s death. Read more: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magical_Mystery_Tour

5. Let It Be ( 1970)

Directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg , the film portrays both moments of musical brilliance and moments of tension and discord among the band members. Despite the underlying tensions, Let It Be stands as a testament to The Beatles' enduring musical legacy and the bittersweet conclusion of an era.

4. Yellow Submarine (1968): Beatles Movies

If there’s a film that captures the psychedelic era of the 1960s that gave us Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, it would have to be the animated Yellow Submarine . Although The Beatles themselves had nothing to do with the film beyond supplying songs and making a cameo appearance at the end, it certainly captures their essence.

The plot has Captain Fred traveling from Pepperland to recruit The Beatles to help free the music-loving people there from the reign of the Blue Meanies. Most amazing thing of all?
