The Beatles, Marilyn, Joni Mitchell, Lana Del Rey & The Cure is at my core.
Bizarrely, I watched ‘Beatles ‘64’ for the first time yesterday.
If only Jack Douglas and his mate got together with these two girls, they’d have a bigger newspaper story!
It would’ve nudged Melanie Coe off the front page!

I remember seeing her death being announced on ‘News at 10.’ My mum was surprised, as she heard she was a really strong swimmer.
Then, years later, I saw a doctor about her saying she hated deep water!

2/2 Jan ‘83 and ITV’s ‘The Early Beatles’ in Jan ‘84.
Quite an education for a young Beatles fan and a great time before everything got ‘franchised.’

1/2 I was 12/13 when I probably first saw ‘The Compleat Beatles’ in 1982/83.
It was that era for me of enjoying Paul’s ‘McCartney 2’ and ‘Tug Of War’ singles and the ‘82 release of ‘Love Me Do.’
There was also Philip Norman’s ‘Shout’ as well as BBC1’s ‘The Beatles - The Fab Four Phenomenon’ in

I think Ringo, as he’s using his left hand, but, then again, it could be Paul!

On ‘Anthology’, the ‘Rubber Soul’ / Revolver’ era seemed to be a bit of a blur for George!
I’m sure in ‘Lennon Remembers’, John couldn’t remember the title of Revolver’!
What was going on in ‘66?

Just these constant, pointless deaths. Women and children just being wiped out, futures just being obliterated before our eyes.

But if they did, they’d have to re-release ‘On air - live at the BBC vol.2’ for continuity!

When I first heard ‘No Bed For Beatle John’ in the 90’s, I went through a phase of when I was reading the paper, I would imagine the text was song lyrics and be singing them in my head!

Last August, I walked from King’s Cross station to Mornington Crescent to attend a meal. I walked past St Pancras Old Church and was really taken by it, not realising its significance to Beatles’ fans. I had to take a photo!
