ON THIS DATE (47 YEARS AGO) December 26, 1967 - The Beatles film, Magical Mystery Tour, premiered on BBC-TV. Shot in color but broadcast in black-and-white, the show was confusing and a disappointment to fans and reviewers. A Daily Express critic wrote that he had never seen such blatant rubbish. A planned U.S. airing was soon cancelled. The songs in order of their use in the movie: Magical Mystery Tour The Fool on the Hill She Loves You (played during the marathon with a carnival-style organ) Flying All My Loving (orchestrated, as background music) I Am the Walrus Jessie’s Dream (instrumental piece, not released on any audio recording) Blue Jay Way Death Cab for Cutie performed by the Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band Your Mother Should Know Magical Mystery Tour (part, once more) Hello, Goodbye (part, finale played over end credits) The Beatles
