  • Tag Fine Arts Presents
    TAG FINE ARTS PRESENTS Peter Dean’s inspired re-creation of the circus poster behind one of the Beatles’ most memorable songs. Sergeant Pepper. Side One. Track Seven. Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite “And of course, Henry the Horse dances the waltz...” On an album of psychedelia and surreality, Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite still manages to stand out. Initially banned by the BBC for what it perceived as drug references, in fact much of the song’s ornate language was taken directly from a circus poster John Lennon had bought in an antique shop in 1967. Pablo Fanque’s Circus Royal promised dancing horses and legendary contortionists which appealed to Lennon’s sense of the ridiculous. “I had all the words staring me in the face one day when I was looking for a song,” he said. “I hardly made up a word.” Peter Dean, a London designer and lifelong Beatles fan, has painstakingly recreated this poster, using the traditional printing methods used to create the original poster in 1843. He explains, “I’ always longed to own a copy of the Mr. Kite poster, but as a designer, I couldn’t accept the poor imitations that were available. So I decided to do it properly.” Dean called on renowned wood-engraving artist Andy English to recreate the two circus characters on the poster, while Graham Bignell, who runs New North Press in Shoreditch, London, matched the Victorian metal and wooden typefaces on the original using his extensive collection of Victorian type. Dean says, “I feel privileged to have worked with Andy and Graham.

  • What Is Circus Today? Explorations Through 250 Years of British Circus by Professor Vanessa Toulmin in the Beginning
    What is Circus Today? Explorations through 250 Years of British Circus by Professor Vanessa Toulmin In the Beginning In 1768 a uniquely British invention created from entertainment popular in late Georgian London was born. The innovator was Philip Astley who with his wife Patty, a gifted equestrienne, and his horse Gibraltar, gave riding displays at Glover’s ‘Halfpenny Hatch’ between Neptune and Angel Streets in April 1768. On this site Mr and Mrs Astley developed scenes of horsemanship and later incorporated older forms of entertainment such as acrobatics, performers from the street and clowns to draw the crowds. It was this combination of speciality skills that developed into the circus entertainment we recognise today.1 As we celebrate 250 years from when modern circus combination of performance genres within a ring was created, the narratives and histories that are of a set diameter quickly became global and being revealed, especially in the United Kingdom, by the early nineteenth century circus could be demonstrate the complex and global history of the found in thirteen different countries including the genre that is circus; an evolving language of visual United States in 1793, Canada in 1797, Mexico in and physical performance.2 The Astleys settled at 1802, Russia in 1816. Within the European and Westminster Bridge Road where initially they used an North American traditions evolutions in popular open-air circular arena, then built a partially covered entertainment from the music hall to the menagerie ‘amphitheatre’ styled ‘Astley’s British Riding School‘ tradition of previous centuries played a key part which opened in 1770.

    MUSC-21600 Freeze Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band: Lyrics 1. Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band It was twenty years ago today, Sergeant Pepper taught the band to play. They’ve been going in and out of style, But they’re guaranteed to raise a smile. So may I introduce to you the act you’ve known for all these years? Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. We’re Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, We hope you will enjoy the show, We’re Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Sit back and let the evening go. Sergeant Pepper’s lonely, Sgt. Pepper’s lonely, Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. It’s wonderful to be here. It’s certainly a thrill. You’re such a lovely audience, We’d like to take you home with us. We’d love to take you home. I don’t really want to stop the show, But I thought you might like to know That the singer’s gonna sing a song And he wants you all to sing along. So let me introduce to you, The one and only Billy Shears, And Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, yeah. 2. With a Little Help from My Friends What would you do if I sang out of tune? Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song, And I’ll try not to sing out of key. Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends.

The Beatles - This Boy – Meet The Beatles US EP Four By The Beatles /Past Masters I flip of I Want To Hold You Hand in UK The Beatles – Mean Mr. Mustard - Abbey Road Recorded July 24th. Written in India as we heard on the White LP demos from Esher. When the band is playing it during the Let It Be sessions Pam was then a Shirley. Lennon 1.00 3 The Beatles - Baby, You’re A Rich Man - Non-LP track (Lennon-McCartney) Lead vocal: John The Beatles’ fifteenth single release for EMI’s Parlophone label. The Beatles were contractually obligated to deliver four new songs for inclusion in the “Yellow Submarine” animated film project. “Baby, You’re A Rich Man” was the first song 4 recorded especially for that project. Earlier in the year, George Harrison’s initial offering for the “Sgt. Pepper” album, “Only A Northern Song,” had been rejected for that album and was now being earmarked for use in the “Yellow Submarine” animated film. But with the rush-release of “All You Need Is Love” as a single following the “Our World” world television transmission on June 25, 1967, a B-side was needed.
