THE BEATLES - HAPPIER DAYS

 Random Beatles photos 

The Beatles, February 1967, by Jean-Marie Perier, via snapgalleries, which also features this story from the photographer:

“Brian Epstein had hired me to shoot some record sleeves during the recording of Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. I had to build a photo studio inside the Abbey Road studio building, in a room next to their recording studio. I stayed there for one week. They needed group pictures of the four, so I had to wait a long time since it seemed there was always one of them hanging around somewhere – talking to the angels!” 


EARLIER DAYS!

Jane Birkin in 'WONDERWALL' Wonderwall Music is the debut solo album by George  and the soundtrack to the 1968 film Wonderwall, directed by Joe Massot. Released in November 1968, it was the first solo album by a member of the Beatles, and the first album issued on the band's Apple record label. Also the first Beatles solo album I bought and still have (and play)

John in Kenwood 1965 - while latterly we see Paul more as the artistic one of the Beatles (Sgt Pepper was a Peter Blake and Jann Howarth project elected by Paul and Richard Hamilton also was selected by Paul as the designer of the album package for the White Album) we shouldn't forget perhaps that it was John who had been to art school (despite dropping out) and he also had a strong passion and was drawn to the plastic arts as well as music
