Four people make the noises on five Beatles recordings. They are John Lennon (on 'Revolution 9', 'Only a Northern Song' and 'Piggies' and others), George Harrison (on 'Piggies'), Mal Evans (on 'Maxwell's Silver Hammer') and Ringo Starr (on 'I Want You (She's So Heavy)'). Noises run from 1968 to 1969, and 1969 has more of them than any other year, three of the four.
