He loves his suit

Here is something a little different.   In 1977 Ringo made four TV commercials in Japan for "Simple Life" leisure suits.     Some of the ads are very much like the Goodnight Vienna video but there is one that is my favorite.   Ringo is heard singing a catchy little song that goes "I love my suit..." and then in the background you hear "he loves his suit..."   Those background singers are non other than Ringo's BFF Harry Nilsson and Monkee Davey Jones!    Most likely Harry wrote the song "I love my suit," but no one seems to know for sure.    

Here are some fun photos for Japanese advertising.    I first heard these commercials on bootlegs in the early 2000's and of course now they are on youtube.
