Here’s the quilt on the wall - I was mistaken - there are reproductions of concert posters, not their albums, on it!

Found the video!

Excellent clip. If the Beatles hadn't have happened, ELO would be my all time fave band. Incidentally, did I spot Paul's "Abe Aborial jnr" playing drums in that clip? Looked like him from where I'm sitting.

Not Abe Laboriel Jr.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abe_Laboriel_Jr.

His name is Donovan Hepburn.

Great pictures! I like seeing the entrance EMI sign before it was changed.

I quite agree, but I guess not everyone is a Beatles fan️

@wandy That is true. 😞

The same thing happened to Ringo's Tittenhurst Park Estate. He sold it to an Arab guy called, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, he had no idea about Britain's Listed Buildings laws. These buildings are protected by law/government, and musnt be altered without permission from the authorities. The sultan changed a heck of a lot of stuff there. He got onto trouble with the local council, but it was too late, the damage had already been done. I have often wondered what would have happened if the Beatles had been allowed to keep their mural on the front of the Apple Boutique in Baker Street. I believe now it too would be protected by the government. Oh well🙁

You’re quite right (slick) Look at the mural that was painted on the Empress Pub by Ringo’s old Liverpool home. That wouldn’t have been tolerated in the ‘60s!

Agreed! Problem was ( imho) back in the 1960s, the London councils would have consisted of ( mostly) men who had fought in the second world war, and these "old" men now in their 40s, which would definitely seem old to the Beatles, did not risk their lives fighting in a war so long Haired hippy jumped up unimportant pop stars could paint their stupid ugly hideous drug induced paintings on the side of perfectly good buildings. Just saying like.

“I fought in the war for your kind!”
Ringo: “Bet you’re sorry you won. HehHeh.”

Thank you so much I will be glad to learn and you are very kind indeed!

@Markeaux You're welcome. It's my pleasure. 🙃

@beatles4ever-1 said in Ask Me Why (the song):

Yeah, I love when he sings "I" when it should be "you"....never even try, girl.... in "Please Please Me," it just jumps right out at you. Paul sings it correctly. But, overall, the take on the song sounds just so perfect and energetic that it doesn't matter. No wonder Martin never asked them to do it again.

Totally agree! Like GM told them, “You’ve just recorded your first #1 hit, boys!”

@wandy You can't ask someone to convert your VHS to DVD. There are people who specialise in this field. That way you don't lose what you have on it.

Yes, there are bunches of companies that specialize in this! Google it. 😉

Yes. All I have to do now is find the cassette. Would definitely be worth it. Anybody remember the scene where the microphone bounced forward and smacked Paul in the mouth? You got the idea that this happened fairly frequently. He said, "by the time this tour is over I will be looking like Joe Bugner". Joe Bugner was a British heavyweight boxer. He fought Muhammad Ali.

@wandy
You'll find it I'm sure. Somewhere in the attic between two boxes and cobwebs. Lol 😅

Copy of their marriage license. Note #4 Condition: Bachelor. 😂
(I would be banned from the forum for saying what it really should have said!) 😂

@wandy Second time. 😅😉

@njr

Clay Aiken is from NC so when he lost it was a big deal here -lol. American Idol has gotten it correct a few times with the likes of Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood but on the whole most winners have not achieved great success.

Totally agree!! 👍

@beatles4ever-1 said in Love Album Cirque Mashup:

@wandy Showing their music off perfectly is hardly messing with it.

Totally agree! 👍

Hi I'm new here but by no means new to The Beatles.
I have a YouTube channel dedicated yo them. Check it out.
https://youtube.com/@AndrewBrooks

I have made a 72 min film, on DVD, about the Beatles life and times in London, called The London Beatles Walk. It starts at MPL in Soho Square, and visits ( I won't go into every location, here) Trident Studios, The London Palladium, The Bag O' Nails Club, 3 Savile Row, The Indica Art Galley, and many more. Nancy will ( hopefully) have it soon, and hopefully pass it around the forum to anybody who's interested. Just saying, like. Would also like to add, I have made NO money WHATSOEVER from this DVD. I made it purely for fun!! In fact, its actually COST me money to make it.

Wandy, it’s Region 2 and I’m going to have to buy a Region-free DVD player to watch it. 99% of the people on here are from the U.S. which is Region 1 and I doubt if they have Region-free players, so I won’t be mailing it to anybody, sorry. And Lady Leslie has yet to send it to me anyway, even though she wrote me that she would. 😢

OK.

Trying something else:

It worked! You have to click on the little picture you’ll see and keep watching!

@littlewillow You’re welcome!

Nice! Good to see that good music has been chosen.
