The Beatles-Magical Mystery Tour
Magical Mystery Tour: the Album
The Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour album is quite often forgotten when talking about The Beatles album releases but in some ways it's among their greatest albums. Although it may be hard to argue it's their best album, it is reasonable to argue that it is their most psychedelic album and if you are great fan of psychedelic music like I am, that means a lot.
Part of the reason the album is somewhat ignored is that it wasn't really originally intended as an album but instead as an EP. The album version (released in the United States originally) included songs that had long before been released as singles such as "Strawberry Fields Forever" & "Penny Lane." But those songs are not included on any other studio album so it does make sense to let them have a home on Magical Mystery Tour. And certainly "Strawberry Fields Forever" & "Penny Lane" are among The Beatles greatest songs.
What I really like about the album is that every song is at least a little bit weird. I like weird music and The Beatles made some great weird music during this part of their career. A good example is "The Fool on the Hill." What kind of song is that anyway? It's a ballad I suppose but it's not the usual "I love you" ballad, it's about, well, a fool on a hill. And the instrumentation and arrangement is quite strange indeed.
Perhaps it's actually the instrumental 3rd track "Flying" that most gives the album it's special psychedelic flavor. This is clearly a song meant to be listened to by those in another place mentally. It's just bizarre really, and I love the ending. It goes perfectly into George Harrison's weirdest song, "Blue Jay Way."
"Blue Jay Way" was The Beatles at their most experimental in the studio. They seemed to throw almost every studio trick they had at their disposal into this song. Some would say that makes it a bit over the top with effects, and there may be some point to that. But it works for me. In fact it's the production that really does it for me, it's not a great song but the insanity of it makes it interesting for me.
The real centerpiece of the album is "I Am The Walrus" which is the ultimate weird Beatles song. It's the song that most defines this album for me and considering it's easily among my very favorite Beatles songs, it's a big reason why I think this is a great album. It includes most of the studio trickery of "Blue Jay Way" but in a much more controlled fashion, and the song is about 100X better too, which helps quite a bit.
I'm not a big fan of "Hello Goodbye" (even before the Target commercials) but the outro of the song is quite cool and it has some neat riffs in it.
"Baby You're a Rich Man" is a pretty unknown song by Beatles standards but I also think it's one of their coolest songs. It's one of the highlights of the album for me. It's fantastically weird.

What type of shirts did the Beatles wear in their "I am the Walrus" music video in Magical Mystery Tour?
In that music video, they wear incredible high necked psychedelic shirts, and I was wondering if there's any website/store that sells shirts which are either very similar vintage or psychedelic reproductions. Also, what's this style of shirt called? Thanks!
Yeah, Paul, George and John had on Nehru shirts.
Ringo was wearing a dashiki.
