Roy: I did not see your question about your namesake until I read through just now. Was the answer you are looking for Zig Zag?

and their followup....
HOLD ON! 1966
U.S. film. Herman's Hermits version of "Help." The British group is on tour in the U.S. when NASA decides to name a rocket after them. Huh? Meanwhile the boys find themselves mixed up with an ambitious starlet willing to stop at nothing! Shelly Fabares, Herbert Anderson, Sue Ann Langdon, Bernard Fox, Mickey Deems. Ten great songs! Silly fun.

Never seen the film but I have the soundtrack, The Fourmost number and the Cilla Number and the Fourmost number are excellent but never appeared anywhere else. Forme one of the best numbers on the album is All Quiet On The Mersey front by George Martin Orch. Always loved his version of This Boy on HDN's but it wasn't on the soundtrack.
Scene where Ringo does a runner and is seen walking through a park on his own it plays in background.

Yes Roy, that is a great theme song, Ringo's Theme.
Posted: Sun Jul 31, 2005 9:21 am
I agree... Ringo's Theme is one of Martin's best.
Almost as good as his keyboard playing on a number of Beatles songs.... The subject of George Martin's contribution/influence to the Beatles is huge and needs its own thread.

Paul: of course they're Jerry's legs. You cantell because he's holding them up around his neck, just like his guitar. "Ferry Cross the Mersey" was a small hit in the U.S in 1965. I sang it in my band at the time.
