Move over, Ms L!

Hi all, wondering why you are looking at this jumbled up page? This is due to the fact that Facebook didn't like our url since it starts with wog, so we have been forced to move the blog. This was some time ago, and we have placed a script which would automatically send you to our new location. Obviously, this hasn't worked for all of you, since we have just finished moderating some of your comments which appeared on this site recently, and not on our new (and improved!) site. So what we're saying is head on over to our new site, and update your bookmarks!

Something is rotten

The Norwegian "Something"/"Come Together" single
The people running the Beatles website, YouTube and Twitter accounts, Facebook page, Instagram account etc are releasing images through their various social media outlets, in order to promote TheBeatles.com. Yesterday the above photo was release with the caption: "Something/Come Together single sleeve - Netherlands, 1969. #BeatlesArchive http://gnikn.us/ExploreBeatles"

As you can see, and "something" that is easily verified, that is not the Dutch release, but the Norwegian one. And one that has been licenced out by Apple to various manufacturers of new Beatles apparel. I have a shopping bag with the image of this particular single.

I really can't get it. How come someone knowledgable and a fan of the group can't be employed to administer The Beatles' presence in the social media division?

For those who wonder, this is what the Dutch release looked like.
