Is it really 57 years?

I remember feeling very rebellious when I bought Eve of Destruction!

I was 13 saw them live three times and as a member of their fan club met them and got their autographs. Still love their music and know all the words to the songs. Elder siblings still remember me screaming at the t.v.

M mom was 15 then. I have photos of her from her teen years. We still have some of the Beatles original lp's. I have many Beatles tracks on cd and downloaded, my children listen, sing and dance to their music and other music from the 60's 70's and 80's (my era)
I very much doubt anything from today's artists will be listened to or remembered in 50/60 years time.

Oh that takes me back to my schooldays, with nearly every girl having a photo of their favourite Beatle pinned to the inside of their desk top. Also a happy memory of Mum and I singing 'She loves you' at the tops of our voices in the kitchen, complete with 'Yeah, yeah' and our embarrassment at being applauded by a neighbour at her kitchen window across the way.

I was 18, at art school and had just met DH. We did a lot of dancing in the student common room . Those were very happy days

merryweather Your Mom was 15?

Are you a child?

I did say most of the music, not all

Lot of George fans here. Sorry, he was mine.

Gonegirl, Is it me or is it you lol Love Me Do came out in 1962. Wouldn't merryweather mum have been born in 1947?

Just seems odd that another GNr's mum was fifteen when I was 21. So I'm only six years older than her mum. Not her. Her mum.

It's probably me. Forget it.

I was 21 in 1967, I preferred the stones. recently I took my DD to see the places I lived in London and my walking route to infant school. We came to a road with lots of youngsters crowding round to cross the zebra crossing, my DD had to explain to me that it was Abbey Road of Beetles fame.

I read up about it when I got home and it seems the local council wanted to move the zebra crossing further away from the junction, but there was such an outcry, it had to be given some sort of protective status and stay where it was. Who’d have thought?

Beatles not Beetles, your spell checked being fussy.

I actually met my husband to be in the Cavern Club, in Liverpool. Pre-Beatles, though. It was a jazz club then, and many famous names performed there. Our first child was born in 1964, followed by the second in 1966, so the carefree beginning of the Pop era rather passed me by.
I still love the music, though. I remember teaching judo in a youth club when Cliff Richard had his first hit with “Move It.” The kids played it almost non-stop, and whenever I hear it, it brings back the crash of bodies on the mat!

merryweather, I think Ed Sheeran will be listened to for a long time.

I don't even know anything by Ed Sheehan.

Sorry kitty.

*LullyDully" I beg your pardon but George was mine. In our family, if he is on TV, people will say to me 'I saw your George on TV'. He (briefly) chatted to me and a couple of friends once. He didn't actually confirm that he was my George but I'm sure he would have if he'd had more time

I was 10 and a Scouser, we felt a great attachment and pride in their talent and fame. Still a huge Macca fan.

I saw them on the cavern in Liverpool. I was a child but my cousin was a doorman and he let me in. Liverpool was alive with bands - every youth wanted to be in one. We had the Merseybeats living in the next street to us (anyone remember them?). Billy Fury use to come to our house for Sunday lunch. Fab time to be there.

I was 12.

Remember going to see the films at the pictures and screaming at the screen.

1964 - Saved up to buy "Hard Day's Night' album (vinyl) to play on my Dansette Record Player.

57 years made me interested.

On Thursday my oldest friend and hubby visited us.

We met aged 10 in Gibraltar where our dads were serving.

We have met several times over the years, holidayed together and corresponded often....now we chat on facebook!

They live in Portsmouth and we live in Yorkshire.

All those miles apart, yet we`ve maintained a close friendship. Nice!

I forgot to add that our friendship is 57 years old!
