Gosh Lola, I love those videos of the Beatles. I remember when they first made their appearance in America on the Ed Sullivan show. I think I have their first Album they made! George Harrison's sister, Louise, supposedly lived here in the states for many years with her husband and family. She lived in town not far from me. George would come to visit and stay with her allot. A few of the other Beatles came along with him a couple of times too. I have read that Louise had given one of the Beatle records to the local DJ and it is believed to be the first Beatle songs to play in America. The records were..."Love Me Do" and "From Me To You". George visited the radio station and gave the DJ a signed copy of "She Loves You". When George's sister sold the house to a local couple, it became a B&B and a museum of the Beatles.....the bed that George slept in, dish he ate off of, etc. (Ha.) I have seen on our local news that the house has recently been sold again, but still is a museum of the Beatles.

Wow, his son does look just like him! I love the song, "Photograph!" I bet there wasn't a dry eye in the house at the tribute to George. I Just watched the videos ....Where's my Kleenex!

Chatty,
I LOVE "At Last" by Etta James! My husband took me to San Francisco for my 50th b'day to see her live. She opened with "At Last" and did a terrific version. I think I will never forget those opening bars -- one of my most favorite memories.
Bonnie
