Reading Philip Norman’s George Harrison biography and I can’t believe he’s still repeating the myths that were thoroughly debunked by Mark Lewisohn’s Tune In.
E.g., Liverpool seamen distributing crates of American records. And the band seriously calling themselves “The Silver Beatles.” Lewisohn convincingly proved these claims are both horseshit.
Did he do any new research after publishing Shout in 1981?
Mark Lewisohn on the 50th anniversary of Paul McCartney and Wings’ Band on the Run.
Fascinating find by Samira Ahmed of a 1963 live show by The Beatles - a few clips on Front Row and looking forward to hearing a cleaned up version if what Mark Lewisohn suggests is possible gets realised!
Listen to The Beatles playing for posh schoolboys!
