Albert Hall not happy with lyric.

This is really pretty good.  Albert Hall wrote to Brian about their objection to their mention on the Pepper album.

Perhaps my understanding of the English language isn't on a par with the Brits, but I NEVER thought JL was saying there were holes in the Albert Hall....the holes were in Blackburn, Lancashire. A number pegged at 4,000 would certainly been enough to fill the Albert Hall, but that's not JL's intent.

Yeah, it was a mysterious line, it didn't say anything negative about the Albert Hall.
