HAPPYBIRTHDAYPAULMCCARTNEY! ↬ June 18th, 1942, Liverpool
❝ It’s a mystery how all this happened. People stop me in the street, and they can get very emotional. They say, ‘Your music changed my life,’ and I know what they mean – that The Beatles brought something very important to their lives. But it’s still a mystery, and I don’t mind ending up being a mystery. ❞
JANUARY 30, 1969 The Beatles Rooftop Concert “I love how people view the rooftop as some big event, but it’s just that they had nowhere else to go.” — Giles Martin
So, you know the famous photos of the Beatles in Harold’s Cafe in Hamburg (62 years ago today, 28th September 1960)…
I’d seen a few people say that they wished John and Paul were sitting next to each other, and it always bugged me because I was sure I’d seen a version that showed they couldn’t even keep their eyes off each other for one photo.
Well, I’ve finally found it!
Apparently this was Paul’s copy that he sent to Dot, so presumably the “Hello Madame” is a message to her (link)
But how very Paul to send his girlfriend a photo of him gazing at his boyfriend.
