The Reviews about Doctor Robert (page 1/1)
------ performed by The Beatles
doctor bob? | Reviewer: billy balls | 10/3/09
i think this song is about bob dylan... anyone agree? didnt the beatles smoke weed with bob for the first time? "take a drink from his special cup" sounds like a reference, as does "you're feeling fine" in the context. not to mention john is singing this 2 songs before paul sings his ode to MJ... these are all assumptions, obviously, but it makes sense to me
Doctor Robert meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/30/09
John Lennon was writing about a fellow who slipped him and George and their wives some LSD
and didn't tell them until they were tripping.
They proceded to go to some clubs but didn't have a good trip. I believe he worked for the National Health, Doctor Robert.
dr. bob drug connections | Reviewer: jim newlyn | 8/18/09
I propose a definite link between this song and the drug laws in force in the UK at the time. Heroin (actually a trade name) was available on prescription in the '60's, and the names of GP's that were 'friendly' to the addicts were passed around . . . perhaps Dr. Robert was one - some-one more familiar with the scene may be able to fill in the blanks.
