The Beatles. Question: why are four grown men and a grand piano sitting in a tree and why are they being filmed doing it by a Swede? The answer is of course that it's 1967 and sitting in trees with a grand piano is de rigeur - the Swede by the way is optional. The only question really is whether "Strawberry Fields" was the definitive psychedelic record? The answer to that is that it's nothing to get hung about, that is I think it's not too bad.
