Did you know Paul may have invited a total stranger to a Beatles session?
🎙️ [Fact 1]
When the Beatles began recording “Fixing a Hole” on Feb 9, 1967, they didn’t use Abbey Road.
Instead, they went to Regent Sound Studio on Denmark Street — the only Sgt. Pepper track recorded outside EMI.

Paul later said he chose Regent because EMI’s studio wasn’t available that night… but engineer Geoff Emerick suggested it might’ve been about privacy from EMI staff.

🎙️ [Fact 3]
And here’s the wild part: Paul reportedly brought a fan to the session — someone who had shown up at his home claiming to be Jesus Christ.
He wasn’t kicked out. Paul said, “Well, let him in… as long as he doesn’t disrupt.”

🎙️ [Fact 4]
The lyrics weren’t about drugs — despite speculation. Paul said it’s about the mind’s freedom and “fixing the hole where the rain gets in” is about thoughts, not substances.
