Beatles Christmas Ornaments

I'm sure the stories will start flowing around the Christmas tree when the Yellow Submarine Christmas ornaments appear. From a visual standpoint the yellow will look great against the dark green Christmas tree. I really have to think whether or not I want to see pictures of my father and his brothers in their Nehru jackets and love beads. We'll have to get out the Holy Grail of vinyl, their copy of Seargant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band and listen to its genius.

Again, we'll have to debate Timothy Leary and is LSD experiments. I wonder if this is when we wonder if someone killed Paul. F. Lee Bailey got to have a mock trial. They listened intently to determine if Paul was alive or dead? Yes, their childhood will flash before my eyes.

There are framed Peter Max posters in my parent's house. So did he or didn't he work on Yellow Submarine. My parents say even if he didn't, his influence on the movie is undeniable. Although I think they secretly believe it's a corporate conspiracy that Max isn't getting credit.

Yes, my parents were hippies. They drove a VW van, they promised never to trust anyone over Thirty and they truly loved the Beatles.

So if you've got Boomer parents or grandparents, a Beatles Christmas ornament is the perfect stocking stuffer or host gift. If you're spending the holidays, show up with one of these and I'm sure you'll hear more than you ever wanted to know about the wacky Sixties and the music of that decade. 

A friend of my mothers actually went to THE Woodstock festival. She is now the most respectable and chic woman. Although if you look closely you do see a little hippie chic in her jewelry and clothing. Marsha is just the person that I would give Beatles ornament to. 

From their early music as a group to later years when they moved on, the music of their Beatles seems to have lead the way for a generation. Whether they were dancing in the gym or learning Transcendental meditation, there was usually a Beatle leading the way.
