The Beatles before fame - photo thread!

This was probably a joke ??

Certainly not George. He looks more like the guy from Rory Storm's band...

Early 1961, Liverpool, maybe Liverpool Jazz Society a.k.a. The Iron Door Club)
Multi-exposure image by Mike McCartney

 

Wow... I had no idea that there was a second photo of John on stage at the Woolton village fete

November 1961, Cavern Club

I have a mate from Burnley who used to do that sort of thing in our student days. Walking in the street, it'd be freezing cold and he'd proceed to strip off his clothes saying "oh it's so bloody 'ot"

Emile Ford, Pete Best, and Paul McCartney backstage at the Tower Ballroom. (24 Nov.1961)
