            A new best selling book is out about Epstein now too called "The 5th Beatle" and unless I'm mistaken, they're making a movie out of it? "Eppy" certainly deserves all this!

              Great news about Brian! (Also, I have a good friend who's a massive KISS fan. He's going to flip out!)

                        Brian deserves the award. Its not so unbelievable that it was Brian who was the secret of their remarkable success. He got them out & into the world at the exact right time. What a genius to send them to the US, I remember George saying no one knew who they were, he didn't think their first record would be popular because no radio was playing it. He went into music stores in NYC & couldn't find any Beatles in the racks. Then like magic, about 6 months later NYC was rioting at the airport & the whole world changed.

                        From Hollywood Bowl 1964 & 1966 to  NYC  Madison Square Garden 2017, 15 concerts so far.

                          I just rewatched The Beatles on Ed Sullivan yesterday (for about the 100th time!) and I still smile the entire time! Paul is in his element, so excited about the whole thing! John looks scared to death, but manages a quick smile to George, who smiles back. Ringo seems stunned but happy about the screams for him. George is happy too. What a night that was, almost 50 years ago and I remember it like it was "Yesterday."

                            Paul has always been a natural on stage. When I see a performer with little stage presence I unfortunately compare them to Paul. They put on a show but it seems like such hard work for them, where with Paul nothing seems more natural. It fascinates me. My only grip is that he please be more careful & not fall down any more.
