@ngipngip No, we didn't.

@lolfag93 No, that was a melotron, using the flute voice for the intro particularly. The horn part is a piccolo trumpet, played by the piccolo trumpet player of the London Symphony Orchestra. Paul heard the piccolo trumpet in a performance by the LSO of the Brandenburg Concerto, which features a piccolo trumpet. He wanted to use that voice in a song-and that's how the horn became the signature sound of "Penny Lane."

@iPodsUNLEASHED they didnt have a synth as such they had a very primitive version of one though (they used it for strawberry fields)

Love Billie Joel, the air horn kid, and Paul starting to flub one of the verses, but fixes himself since there are thousands of ppl singing with him. Poor Paul, he did this over the summer with Hey Jude too! Must be hard when you have written SO MANY awesome songs!!

@kcolat that's right....the single that came out with penny land ( a real street in Liverpool) had strawberry fields ( a home for girls in Liverpool).  Yes, it really looks like what John and Paul wrote about Liverpool.
