Your Mother Should Know Painting

This acrylic piece is actually three paintings in one, depicting the highlights of the busby Berkeley-esque inspired finale of 'Magical Mystery Tour'. "Your Mother Should Know" was written by Paul McCartney at his home in London. It took its title from the screenplay of 'A Taste Of Honey', and the music harked back to Busby Berkeley show tunes, and the golden age of music hall. It's likely that the song was briefly considered for the Our World satellite broadcast of June 25th,1967. The Beatles went instead with "All You Need Is Love", a simpler message and one more readily understood by a worldwide audience. But the idea of a big old-fashioned singalong clearly stayed with McCartney when planning the Magical Mystery Tour film. "The big prop was that great big staircase that we danced down, that was where all the money went: in that particular shot on that big staircase. I said, 'Sod it, you've got to have the Busby Berkeley ending,' and it is a good sequence. Just the fact of John dancing, which he did readily. You can see by the fun expression on his face that he wasn't forced into anything." - Paul McCartney "I wrote it in Cavendish Avenue on the harmonium I have in the dining room there. My Aunty Jin and Uncle Harry and a couple of relatives were staying and they were in the living room just across the hall, so I just went to the dining room and spent a few hours with the door open with them listening. And I suppose because of the family atmosphere Your Mother Should Know came in. It's a very music-hall kind of thing, probably influenced by the fact that my Aunty Jin was in the house." Paul McCartney, Many Years From Now, Barry Miles
