The Beatles are still recognized as the most influencial rock band of the last century. I do believe, like many others, that there must be a little something...
The purpose of this team is to search for, to select and to organize all the evidence of the magic produced by the melt of those four guys. This is a quest, our quest...
If you know people that could give us a little help on that quest, please invite them to "team up" with us. Francois Mar 4

It is intended as a tribute to the greatest group of all time, to try - in a small way - to help introduce their music to new generations of fans.
Just this evening, I found myself explaining to my kids how relatively short the Beatles career as group was, compared to, say, The Rolling Stones. Seeing this only reinforces how fleeting those years were. Artist Maxim Dalton is selling a limited edition (500) of this giclée print.

Je suis devenu accro : j'attends chaque nouveau titre le mardi avec impatience... by william Oct 30
Special thanks to ThisDayinMusic.com . It’s hard to believe in this day and age, but in 1964 — at the dawn of Beatlemania — there was some doubt as to whether the Fab Four would sell in a non-English-speaking country like Germany. Perhaps those making that assessment weren’t aware that The Beatles had spent their formative years as a band tearing down houses on Hamburg’s Reeperbahn on a nightly basis. Nevertheless, Odeon Records (the German imprint of EMI) contacted George Martin and Brian Epstein and convinced them that The Beatles should record their biggest hits in German so that they could sell more records there.
On the 27th August 1967 Brian Epstein, The Beatles’ manager was found dead in his bed at 24 Chapel Street – his London home in Belgravia, and practically a stones throw from the grounds of Buckingham Palace. He’d taken, what was most likely, an accidental overdose of Carbital – a popular sleeping pill of the time. Epstein had in the last few years become a heavy drug user and in fact during a lot of that summer Epstein had been staying at The Priory, the infamous rehab clinic – trying to cure his acute insomnia and growing addiction to amphetamines. Earlier that week Epstein had met up with The Beatles, for what would be the final time, while they were recording Your Mother Should Know at The Chappell Recording Studios for the up-coming Magical Mystery Tour. He was then planning to spend the August Bank Holiday weekend at his country home at Kingsley Hill in Sussex with his friends Geoffrey Ellis and Peter Brown, and he did indeed drive down there with them on Friday 25th.
