The Beatles

[Oma]

Yesterday I watched a old Beatles film ,( Its a hard days night )
Really enjoyed it singing along with the songs all in Black and White ,
It was a bit Naff compared to todays films but I loved it ,
Would love to see a few more
What films would you like to see ?

We watched Life at the Top with Laurence Harvey a couple of weeks ago.
Made in 1965, but we enjoyed it.

I've liked Laurence Harvey for as long as i can remember.

[Oma]

If I recall he died quite young didn't he or am I thinking of someone else ?

Oma its Beatles week-end here in Liverpool and I am off to Town to browse about listening to all the Beatles songs performed in the local pubs & clubs that will have tribute bands its a great atmosphere down Matthew Street,I love to sit and people watch for a few hours and remember when I used to go there in my lunchtime yrs ago.

We caught the last 20 minutes of It's a Hard Day's Night. I had totally forgotten it was in B&W!!

Glamm - enjoy your trip down memory lane - and Matthew Street.

I love the Ealing comedies and the Carry On films. Also Room at the Top, A Taste of Honey, all those films.

[Glammanana]

Off to Matthew Street shortly I am meeting up with my pal and we are off people watching for the afternoon,we will treat ourselves to a chip butty out side of Strawberryfields pub xx

Sounds fab Glamma

[Daisy]

Glamm - did you have a good time?

[Glammanana]

Yes thank you Daisy such a good time we browsed all down Matthew Street and stopped for some refreshment at Sgt Peppers pub whilst listening to the music.
There where loads of foreign visitors taking pictures of the "60's Wall" its a brick wall with all the famous groups that had played at The Cavern and that had hits during the 60's.
We came back over on The Ferry which was full of course lots of people singing Ferry Cross the Mersey.

[Plantaholic]

Sounds great Glamm.

Glamm - a real nostalgia trip for you!

It's funny, when I was working in Liverpool in the early 70s the Mersey Sound had peaked, and although it was still hugely popular, there wasn't the white hot adoration like there was at the time of Beatlemania, but it was too soon for people to reminisce about it all. I missed out a bit, didn't I!
