May 23rd, 1970

♪♫    "Signs, Signs, Everywhere a Sign!"  ♫♪♫


Chuck Buell here, posing this Musical Question . . . . .


Which came first?  The Sign . . . or the Song?!

 

It was on this date, May 23rd, 1970, that a new song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart by the biggest group in history.

 

One cannot help but wonder if perhaps this cautionary sign, installed on a remote road somewhere outside Liverpool, may have sparked the unconfirmed rumor that it inspired the Beatles to create what would turn out to be a two-week Number One Song for them in Summer of 1970 ... and their last official #1 Record on the charts.




That's a much better sign than this one!
 


Oh, BTW, on the subject of "which came first?” ...

 

I just ordered a Chicken and an Egg from two different online sites.  

 

I’ll let you know!
