Magic Bus Mystery Tour
My older brother is a big Beatles/McCartney fan. I am a Who fan.
Knowing this, he has accused Pete Townshend of stealing the idea
for Magic Bus from the Beatles' Magical Mystery Tour. As I recall,
MMT came out around '67 and MB around '68. This all started years
ago when someone gave my brother the 8-track Magic Bus: Thw Who on
Tour with a picture of a flowered bus on the front. That 8-track
ended any possibility of my brother ever being a Who fan. He
thought it was lousey. Until that moment he was a Who fan, having
bought Who's Next on 8-track. I used to sneak into his room and
listen to WN while he was out. I was just a kid, but WN really
impressed me way back then.
