The Beatle's
The Beatle's have very probably, provided the soundtrack to my life. I remember the first time I heard them play one night when they guested on 'Sunday Night at the London Paladium', a popular TV show in the UK back in the 60's.This was about 1963 ish, and I have been hooked ever since.
John, Paul, George and Ringo, grew up in the busy port of Liverpool, I am not about to go into their life stories, suffice to say, they cut there teeth playing the bars and sex clubs of Hamburg, Germany, in the early 60's.
You're Going To Lose That Girl - From the movie 'Help!'
On returning to their home city of Liverpool, by now a tight combo, they landed a job playing in the 'Cavern', one of Liverpools more popular clubs. It was there that they met 'Brian Epstein', a local entrepeneur and owner of a nunber of music stores in and around Liverpool. I guess the rest is history.
This collection is my tribute to the greatest band of all time.
The Beatle's Films
The Beatle's appeared in five major films, the majority of which received great reviews, with the exception of Magical Mystery Tour. This was a made for TV christmas special that at the time was, in my opinion, 'greatly misunderstood', however its reedeming feature is an excellent mix of music. You can watch all five movies from the links below, plus I have added the famous 'Rooftop Concert' that bought chaos to the streets in and around Apple's headquarters in London.

Subsequent years have seen the arrival of all sorts of compilations, some full retail and some bootlegs. My favourite is the 'Love' album released in November 2006. It is a remix of the music used in the ' Cirque du Soleil ' production of the Beatle's musical.
