Martha My Dear by The Beatles
“Paul is the only Beatle playing, or singing on this track from "The Beatles" (White Album), released in late November '68. Macca plays piano, bass, lead guitar and drums!!! All the other brass & string musicians featured are session players. Opinions differ about who the song was written about. Paul insists it was written about his Old English sheepdog puppy named Martha. Others interpret it as another song about fiancée Jane Asher, who inspired many of Macca's songs around this time. We think maybe the lyrics point towards Jane, what do you think? Either way it's a McCartney Classic!!!”

for all those silly gals.
When you find yourself in the thick of it, help yourself to a bit of what is all around you
After one year of jamming I realise I've posted nothing by The Beatles! Time to correct that with a track recorded on this day in 1968.
