********************************
Hope you are are keeping well and coping with a new way of life - self-isolation, difficulties of shopping, no visits to friends and relatives, exercise at home, etc
We will be conducting a ‘virtual’ Vinyl Meeting by all of you submitting your suggestions for tracks fitting a theme that will be emailed to you, so if you all reply & send in your suggestions to me, I will consolidate a list of the tracks, try to find a link to that track and send them back to you.
You can then apply your Hit or Miss to them and we’ll see how we collectively voted.
John
************************************
Fifty years ago on April 10th, the world found out that the Beatles were no more. Whilst that was the date we all found out, it had been going on for some time, and it was during a promotion of Paul McCartney's new solo album that he let slip that he would never perform with Beatles again, and would no longer write songs with John Lennon. It was actually John who had told the guys in a meeting a few months earlier that he ‘wanted a divorce’ but as it was Paul who told the world, he was seen as the bad guy, and so the 'Band that Changed the World' were no more - it took years of litigation to sort everything out.
Vinyl Record Group leader John Langham posts a daily blog on his twitter feed @dailybeatlecom and also on his Facebook page, reporting on what happened to the Beatles on that day in history, so to celebrate (or commiserate ) the anniversary of the end of the Beatles, he has given us a short Beatle quiz, just for fun - no prizes.
1 Who was the first Beatle to leave ?
2 Who was their very first manager ?
3 What was the name of John Lennon’s first wife ?
4 What was the name of the drummer before Ringo Starr joined ?
5 Who was engaged to Paul McCartney, but never married him ?
6 Which Beatle was deported from Germany for performing underage ?
