Not very likely, but several requested that I put this out there.

Oh yeah, he got it right this time.
†heRigh†Album Special - He'll Be Dared Video Edit 2 N13G
Thanks to yenohpehttonmai, you can still see the original version here.
More to say, but I have to run.
Watch out for the batty William the Conk. (No crypticism on my part. Just thinking about Dickens, Joyce and Carroll)

New Video: †heRigh†Album Special - He'll Be Dared
Just in time for Mother's Day, Iamaphoney gives us †heRigh†Album Special - He'll Be Dared.
He'll Be Dared???
Not that it doesn't make some fine anagrams (Bearded Hell, Bladder Heel, Labeled Herd, Ed Balled Her, Led Here Bald, Dad Beer Hell, to name a few), but really, I'm hearing "He'll be dead" when you play "Let It Be" backwards, because dammit, that's what I have been programmed to hear.
The video itself uses quite a lot of footage from the "Free As A Bird" video, as well as exterior crowd footage from "Let It Be" [Still reading the record mirror, are we?] and some unidentified crowd footage. There are also clips of some 1960's types that we have seen previously.
And in a lovely animation, the much loved fake mustache is flying like a nightingale. [Sorry Ken, just a plug for the film. Try and keep it in]
And then, there is this:
There is some brief, but interesting footage (actually inchage) of Paul, circa early 1968. This was hinted at in Rotten Apple 80, but in this video, Paul does appear to be standing in front of a white Volkswagen.
The last two videos have both made reference to the famous "Superstone" concept, which is still a sore subject for me. If we must dredge that up, at least we can compare soundtracks to show what a clean version we now have with this new video. I believe the lyrics (if you can call them that) have changed a bit too. Maybe we are heading in the direction of †heRigh†Album after all.

More Like More Wizards
You Tuba Player LikeMoreWizards says: The Teachings is already there in TheRottenApple,series. We will all have to go backwards in order to experience the truth,
I'm not sure why the message ends in a comma, it could me that more of the message is to come or it could mean that more typographical errors is can do be expected.
Either way, a new video shows lots of footage of the Phoney Figure, and I don't think we have seen all of this.
I don't know if the peculiar soundtrack reveals anything, but I have considered the idea that there is much we have not found or interpreted correctly in the Rotten Apple Series. Perhaps it is a good time to start looking backward.

paul is dead - the rotten apple 80 plus
It looks like "Peace of Mind" will be rightfully reinstated as Rotten Apple 79, albeit with some significant changes.
Rotten Apple 80 here! Looks like somebody has been reading the record mirror.
Initial Observations:
Glad to see Iamaphoney come through. The revelation still appears to be a way's off. Obviously, the old "put different dialog in the video footage" trick is being employed again. The guy with the accent is as lovable as ever. Nothing hammers you on the head, but there are some new things in this one worth investigating.
I would be interested in hearing your impressions. Please feel free to comment as we analyze this latest effort.
More to come...
UPDATE 1:
Those mysterious dots scrolling down the screen in recent Rotten Apple videos are reminiscent of the dots on the Abbey Road wall that have been historically connected together to form the number three. That was the interpretation as far back as the F. Lee Bailey television mock trial at the height of the original rumor. Recently a picture was published on the fabulous Wog Blog that reportedly shows more dots that were on the wall. Elements of the album cover have been superimposed on the wall.
UPDATE 2:
Is this a face in a tree or the power of suggestion?

I Miss I
Dear Mr. Iamaphoney, Do you know I miss you? We all miss you, don't ya boys? Do ya miss him, miss him, miss him? All the Beatles miss you.
We (or at least I) have not heard from Iamaphoney since the release of the severely underrated "Peace of Mind," but I am hopeful that things will change soon. I have never been that fond of the Iamaphoney posted "schedule," and quite frankly, due to some kind of extremely specific learning disability from which I apparently suffer, I have always had trouble decoding it anyway. But I sincerely hope that "01020410" as indicated on his YouTube channel means that we will see a new Rotten Apple effort in the next couple of days. I have been told that Iamaphoney has shared in various correspondences with viewers that he, in fact, does not control the release or revelation schedule, and in my studies in the rabbit hole, I am finding more evidence to support that assertion than I expected. I am also beginning to think that eventually there will be an answer (ebtitel) to all of this.
With that in mind, and in the absence of medication, I am offering a video of my own. If we do hear from Iamaphoney this weekend, I'm sure it will blow mine away, but my hope is that my effort will rest comfortably in the shade of the one, the only, the original Iamaphoney. We sure do miss you. All the Beatles miss you.
For my video I chose to do a cover version of one of my favorite songs on one of my favorite albums "Time Takes Time." The song is called, "Don't Know A Thing About Love." Stanley, I hope it's okay.
I do try to answer questions and honor requests, but it can sometimes take me a while. So if any of you have a request or question that has not been addressed in an article or on one of my videos, I haven't forgotten you. And, please keep sending me those clues.
As I said, things are rather slow in the Iamaphoney news department. Are there any Nutters fans out there? Hmmm. How about Nutters? Well anyway, if you are curious about this unusual item from 24 seconds into the video A BIRD IN THE BUSH - 1 by aGameOfFlVES...
...you can find it here if you scroll down to the bottom of the page.
The documentary version of Rotten Apple 65 can now be found again here.
I love this guy named sneidng who makes ukulele versions of Iamaphoney classics. If you play the ukulele, you're okay by me.
And yet another videomaker has joined the ranks of the Iamaphoney imitator society. Say hello to WeirdCandycain. A support group meeting is scheduled for next Thursday, but it will be canceled in the event of a new Rotten Apple video.
Come on, Iamaphoney. We all miss you.

The Phoney Figure
First of all, I am glad that I am not a real journalist because we are dealing with some very flimsy stuff today.
The name, "The Phoney Figure" or "TPF" seems to have caught on as a way to refer to the Iamaphoney actor character who first appeared around the time of Rotten Apple 39 K. I think it might have been Mikeynl1038 who coined the term originally. Mike credits himself for making me famous, but from my perspective, the opposite is true.
TPF has gone through some appearance changes since then. This guy, featured in a video from July of 2007 was shown briefly more recently in Rotten Apple 78.
The image below is from Rotten Apple 75 L.
Then we had the video called "Footage TPF 1" that threatened to expose everything. Have you ever noticed how everyone who threatens to blow the lid off the whole thing never does? I'm beginning to wonder if this thing has a lid.
Some have even claimed that the individual playing the part of Iamaphoney has changed from the original in a similar scenario to an American Television show of the 1960s that dealt with the occult.
Lately there has been some speculation on the identity of TPF based on some of the softest evidence yet. We haven't exactly been a fount of critical thinking up to this point, but now it's going to get much worse.
Apparently, for a brief period of time Iamaphoney changed the background on his channel to a picture that showed TPF with a guitar in his hand. Therefore, speculation was that if he is pictured with a guitar, he must be a musician. If he is a musician, he must be on the recordings in the Rotten Apple videos. If he is on the recordings on the Rotten Apple videos, he must sing on them too.
While we are at the Olympic Conclusion Jump trials, we might as well keep going...
On December 8, 2009 (yes strange things happen on infamous Beatle anniversaries) someone left a comment on my blog post "Curious Thing" supposedly revealing the identity of TPF. Someone using the moniker "thetruthmustout" claimed to be a former classmate and said that TPF was an actor named Richie King.
The Internet Movie Database actually has a listing for Richie King, who is alternatively known as Rich King. There is not much information on Rich King, but it does list two films in which he appeared. In 1978, he was in "Stunt Rock" and in 1984, he was in "Rocktober Blood." Despite the murky waters of this research, I did find it interesting that he portrayed a bass guitar player in both movies.
The IMDB had no pictures, but I did find this Rich King on Google.
Undaunted, I searched YouTube and actually found a clip from "Stunt Rock" with the band Sorcery. The bass player, Rich King looks like this.
Going back to the comment from "thetruthmustout," Richie King, the Phoney Figure can be found in the movie "Less Than Zero" playing an uncredited extra in the pool scene. I first should warn that "Less Than Zero" is one of those "brat" movies where almost everyone looks like TPF. But from the description in the blog comment, I believe the alleged former schoolmate is the young man with thick blond hair who walks in the background during the pool scene. You see him emerge in the picture below to the left of the principle actors.
In this second capture, he is right between the principle actors in the scene.
In this third shot, he is to the right of the actors.
In this last capture he is about to exit to the right side of the screen.
The most recent twist in the liquid tale of TPF emerged two weeks ago when a new YouTube channel called FORN00NE uploaded nine tracks credited to an artist known as "The Afterlife." Based on various anonymous comments, the lead singer of the melodic synth pop band is a previous incarnation of the The Phoney Figure. The videos contain a few low quality pictures of what is implied to be a young TPF.
I must admit, he does look like he could have been any one of about 26 extras in the movie "Less Than Zero."
