I'll go thru pic files and see if I have anything that might work.
No promises though.
July 1973
Before I get into this long awaited update, does anyone have any feedback on the tracklist of Mind Games Forever? I also forgot about "Live And Let Die". Could that possibly be a non-movie track on the Band On The Run album? Anyway, on with the show...
July 1, 1973 - "Band On The Run" officially enters the post-production phase with a target release date of Christmastime 1973.
July 5, 1973 - "Instant Karma (We All Shine On)" b/w "Living In The Material World", the first single from Mind Games Forever, is released in the UK as Apple R 5986. This is their first single release since last November. The A-Side is a glam rock number inspired by David Bowie. The single goes to #5 on the UK charts.
July 7, 1973 - The Beatles celebrate Ringo's 33rd birthday at Trader Vic's in London.
July 10, 1973 - "Instant Karma (We All Shine On)" b/w "Living In The Material World" is released in the US as Apple 3656. The single peaks at #3 on the Record World pop chart. This is the first time since "I've Got A Feeling" b/w "Octopus's Garden" in late 1971 that a regular Beatles single has not gone to number in either the US or the UK.
July 12, 1973 - Ringo starts writing a few songs for potential use on his solo country album, which he plans to start recording later in the summer. He also contacts a few producers in Nashville, including Chet Atkins, Owen Bradley, and Bob Ferguson in hopes of recruiting them to produce and arrange the album.
July 13, 1973 - Queen's self-titled debut album is released in the UK as Apple 37. The album becomes a critical and commercial success, eventually peaking at #20 on the UK album charts. The album is also fairly successful when released in the US, peaking at #60 on the album chart there.
July 17, 1973 - Paul goes on vacation with his family to Spain.
July 20, 1973 - During a business meeting at Apple, John floats the idea of splitting off their US division into a second label on which to house their American artists.

Yaya! If they make an American label, they should name it after one of Ringo's many funny sayings, or Ringoisms!
Did those exist at that point?Good name- though would people think they only did funk and disco??
Been following this thread for ages... Made an account a few months back I think, forgot I had it... Hello! You can expect to see one or two contributions from me if you guys don't mind a new guy dropping in?
You send anything you come up with to YellowSubmarine93 by a PM first and ask permission, his TL, his call.
Not stupid but some would consider it rude while some others wouldn't.
Better to be safe than sorry and welcome to AH.
