Three people play celesta on four Beatles recordings. They are George Martin (on 'Good Night' and 'Baby It's You'), Paul McCartney (on 'Real Love') and John Lennon (on 'The Fool on the Hill'). The Magical Mystery Tour album shows more of them than any other album for its length, one of the three across its eleven tracks.
