The Beatles cheer up a dreary orphanage and it’s children.
Most Beatles fans recognize the boundary between the “Early Beatles” period and the “Late Beatles” period as the end of 1966. In 1967, when The Beatles released their first single of the year, the double A-sided “Penny Lane” c/w “Strawberry Fields Forever”, the “later Beatles” were born. The only later Beatles songs featured in The Beatles cartoon series were both songs from this single.
