1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: It's night Side with Dan Ray. I'm telling you easy

2
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: Boston's Beach Radio Hemloo.

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 2: It's Bradley Jay for Dan on a Friday, a little

4
00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:12,280
Speaker 2: bit lighter on Friday. As you know, you know how

5
00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:15,120
Speaker 2: it goes. You know, people are searching for something new

6
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:19,480
Speaker 2: all the time. Sometimes something new is something old. For example,

7
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 2: vinyl vinyls old. But you'll find that young people are

8
00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 2: flooding record shops and paying a lot of money for vinyl.

9
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 2: People that hang in there and kept these vinyl shops

10
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 2: alive from making money hand to a fist. And if

11
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 2: you have vinyl in your cellar, you might want to

12
00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 2: think about selling it because it's worth more than you think.

13
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 3: Probably now. The same thing goes with music.

14
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:46,840
Speaker 2: With bands, sometimes something new is something old because it's

15
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:50,879
Speaker 2: so good. And that would be the Beatles. There are

16
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,280
Speaker 2: lots and lots of young folks looking for something real

17
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,480
Speaker 2: and they turn to the Beatles, which makes the Beatles

18
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: probably the most relevant band ever even now, because they

19
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,080
Speaker 2: you know, older folks like them, and mature folks, let's say,

20
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 2: and young folks like them. I recently went to a

21
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: Beatles show and there were lots of young people. In fact,

22
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 2: there was a group of students there that were part

23
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 2: of a Beatles class in a college, and we're going

24
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 2: to find out a little bit more about that. So

25
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: to celebrate the Beatles, I have a guest named Chachi Liprette,

26
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: who is a really serious but fun Beatles expert. And

27
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 2: why now, you might ask, Well, February is a huge

28
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 2: month in the history of the Beatles. So it's February

29
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 2: and we have Chachi here, and it's all Beatles at

30
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:44,560
Speaker 2: least for now. The number to call here six one, seven, two, five, four,

31
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: ten thirty, and we're going to give you a couple

32
00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: trivia questions just for fun and see how you do.

33
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 2: Give you a little I give you an add a

34

Speaker 2: boy or at a or whatever and if you get

35
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 2: it right, So let me introduce Chachi litprette chauci.

36
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 3: How are you, Bradley. It's a pleasure to be here.

37
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 4: Thank you for inviting us in or inviting me. And

38
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 4: I brought my lovely bride, Stephanie, who's also a huge

39
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,640
Speaker 4: Beatles fan Beg's as well. But it's a pleasure to

40
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 4: be here to celebrate the greatest band. And this is

41
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:17,960
Speaker 4: a significant month in Beatles history of the Perhaps the

42
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 4: biggest historic Beatles moment in February.

43
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 3: Okay, so let's establish credibility here.

44
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 2: Okay, it's pretty hard to overstate your credibility, but can

45
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 2: you go ahead, and you know, give us the high

46
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: points of your resume what makes you the man when

47
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 2: it comes to the Beatles.

48
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 3: I appreciate that.

49
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 4: And just for geographical reference, I was born in Boston,

50
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:45,920
Speaker 4: raised in Cambridge. First generation Beatles fan, which means I

51
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 4: saw them on the Ed Sullivan Show on February ninth,

52
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,040
Speaker 4: nineteen sixty four, eight pm CBS television.

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,920
Speaker 3: So you would be how old at that time? Seven

54
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,920
Speaker 3: years old and they were on the TV because your

55
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,679
Speaker 3: parents were watching. Because I had two older brothers and

56
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 3: the sister. Okay, and I was.

57
00:03:03,680 --> 00:03:07,880
Speaker 4: I was sucked into that vacuum, and I distinctly remember

58
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:13,600
Speaker 4: that day. That night, my oldest brother, Vinnie, was playing

59
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 4: in the backyard and playing whiffle ball.

60
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 3: Fell.

61
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,360
Speaker 4: And you know how the Italians are, They have the

62
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 4: tomato plants with the sticks and they grow up the stick.

63
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,919
Speaker 4: And so Vinnie was playing whiffle ball in the backyard,

64
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 4: fell and the stick went in his eye. He went

65
00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 4: to the Mount Urban Hospital, unable to watch the Beatles

66
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,360
Speaker 4: on The Ed Sullivan Show because his eyes were covered

67
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 4: and they had him in a dark room.

68
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 3: Everyone has these stories.

69
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that night was, you know, cultural watershed moment

70
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 4: things changed.

71
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 3: Did you have high expectations or was it a surprise

72
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:48,119
Speaker 3: what you said?

73
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 4: It was not a surprise because the couple of months

74
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 4: before Capitol Records finally released The Beatles, they had refused

75
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 4: to release the Beatles in sixty three. They kept refusing

76
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 4: although Capital in Canada released their records, but not until

77
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 4: the end of nineteen sixty three.

78
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 3: Because Capital.

79
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 4: The guy at Capital who was overseeing all of it,

80
00:04:12,760 --> 00:04:16,279
Speaker 4: hated the Beatles. Dave Dexter Junior hated the Beatles and

81
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 4: if but if you go to like the Help album,

82
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,159
Speaker 4: he gets credit on the back. It was his decision

83
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 4: to cut up the albums. So they're not like the

84
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:29,920
Speaker 4: UK catalog Capitol Records. You know, in the UK albums

85
00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:33,520
Speaker 4: had more songs, but Capitol Records kept the number low.

86
00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 4: They paid less of a royalty rate. They were able

87
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,279
Speaker 4: to make more albums, thus more money. The Beatles didn't

88
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 4: like that. But for me, I was born and raised

89
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 4: on the American catalog, so through the sixties I was

90
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,720
Speaker 4: a kid, but devoted to the Beatles. I would take

91
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,240
Speaker 4: the tee to Harvard Square. I'm going to get into

92
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:55,960
Speaker 4: what you saw that night first, Okay.

93
00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:57,720
Speaker 3: I want to back up just a little bit more

94
00:04:57,720 --> 00:04:58,279
Speaker 3: on the credit.

95
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 4: Sure, I have been in radio over forty years, and

96
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 4: and I still have my Beatles show.

97
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 2: And you've been doing a Beatles show for like thirty years,

98
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 2: thirty plus yearsty plus years.

99
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 4: It started as get back to the Beatles, but for

100
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:11,919
Speaker 4: years it's now Breakfast with the Beatles.

101
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 3: And you've met most of the Beatles.

102
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 4: I started in radio in eighty one. John was already gone.

103
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 4: But yeah, I've met the other three, Ringo many times,

104
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 4: Paul many times, had dinner with Paul with some other people,

105
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 4: and and interviewed George once.

106
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 3: Which was you actually have their numbers. I do not

107
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 3: have their numbers, but I know their contact people. I

108
00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 3: know their people, yes, like Ringo knows who you are. Ringo,

109
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 3: you know.

110
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:38,919
Speaker 4: I don't want to brag. I don't want to brag.

111
00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 4: It's been a number of years since I've seen them,

112
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 4: But through my connections with the Ringo camp, whenever we talk,

113
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,680
Speaker 4: he remembers the name Chochi. Okay, and that's how you

114
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 4: have a weirder name than I do. Chachi Chachi Chachi.

115
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 4: So I have recordings of him making fun of my name,

116
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 4: saying Chauchi. How many times have we talked? It seems

117
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 4: like we've talked a million times.

118
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 3: So yeah, no.

119
00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 4: And you know, when I watched the Beatles on the

120
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 4: Ed Sullivan Show that night, it was just an amazing moment.

121
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 4: I was immediately drawn to Ringo. I loved he was

122
00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,359
Speaker 4: on a riser, playing drums, having fun.

123
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:13,440
Speaker 3: He was always smiling.

124
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 4: So I was drawn to Ringo more so when I

125
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:19,239
Speaker 4: met Ringo, we would talk about that and I'd say, Ringo,

126
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 4: we have a drum kid in our home, but we

127
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 4: never play it because it's a monument. Well you know, chot,

128
00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:27,440
Speaker 4: you you got to play those drums, you see. And

129
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 4: so Ringo meant a lot to me. But not too

130
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 4: long after that, George became my favorite Beatle.

131
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 3: Okay is he still yes? All right?

132
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:38,960
Speaker 2: George was mine. I switched to John. We'll talk about

133
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 2: that later, okay. So I hadn't thought about this till

134
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,320
Speaker 2: right this moment. I would have asked you before the show,

135
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 2: would you mind if people in the audience try to

136
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 2: stump you?

137
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 4: I have no problem at all. I don't mind being stumped.

138
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 4: I don't know everything about it. This way you learn

139
00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 4: if you're wrong, you know. I know you're very kind

140
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 4: to call me a Beatles expert, and to some degree

141
00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:01,719
Speaker 4: I am. But listen, there's a lot of information out there.

142
00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 2: I stumped you today and the question was, what is

143
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:06,720
Speaker 2: Paul McCartney's favorite soup?

144
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 3: Oh? You see the stuff? Is that trivia or trivial?

145
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: That's trivia favorite soup.

146
00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 2: I want to address you all out there for the listeners,

147
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 2: what is his favorite soup? I'm gonna have folks get

00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:28,160
Speaker 2: your building right there you go, so so, folks, I

149
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 2: invite you to call six one, seven, two, five, four

150
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 2: ten thirty and talk to Chachi and if you have

151
00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 2: any any thoughts about the Beatles why you love him

152
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 2: so much? Did you happen to see the Sullivan Show.

153
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 2: Are you a young person maybe who's discovered the Beatles

154
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 2: and you want to share why that is what makes

155
00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:46,880
Speaker 2: him so great?

156
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, because a lot of people remember where they bought

157
00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 4: one specific album, So any kind of recollections like that.

158
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 4: I love when people share that stuff.

159

00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 4: looking for someone to call in with the correct answer.

177
00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:45,520

178
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 3: the oldest Beatle? Who is the youngest Beatle? My think

179

Speaker 3: it's easy, but I got it got it wrong. I

180
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:54,760
Speaker 3: got it wrong. I guess you guess.

181
00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 2: Seven times wrong every time, so you know it's not

182
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 2: super duper easy. Six one, seven, two, five, four ten thirty.

183
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 2: Now we're here in February, because February is such a

184
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: big Beatles month. Let's go through some of the historical

185
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 2: February moments involved the Beatles.

186
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 4: Well, it was obviously it starts with the Beatles on

187
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,120
Speaker 4: the Ed Sullivan Show on February ninth. Actually, when they

188
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 4: land in America on February seventh, they had the top

189
00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:27,079
Speaker 4: five slots in the Billboard top one hundred and April

190
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 4: of nineteen sixty four.

191
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,760
Speaker 3: Top five slots like one, two, three, four five. That's right.

192
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 3: That's never been done, no since, never been done.

193
00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:39,319
Speaker 4: And that was a huge time.

194
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:41,760
Speaker 3: It was all Beatles all the time.

195
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,520
Speaker 2: So if you got in the car and listened to

196
00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:48,040
Speaker 2: the radio, you heard probably two Beatles three Beatles songs

197
00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 2: an hour.

198
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 3: More than that.

199
00:09:49,559 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 4: And I would listen to BZA back then.

200
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, so.

201
00:09:55,720 --> 00:10:02,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was February that nineteen sixty four. Unbelievable. Brian Epstein,

202
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,840
Speaker 4: the Beatles manager, made a deal with the Ed Sullivan Show.

203
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 4: They appeared three times on The Ed Sullivan Show in February.

204
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 3: And he didn't get paid much. No.

205
00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 4: See, Brian was a marketing guy, you know, promotion, game taste.

206
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,359
Speaker 4: Elvis charged Ed Sullivan for one appearance fifty thousand dollars.

207
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 4: Brian Epstein met with Ed Sullivan and said, he wants

208
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 4: his boys to be on his show, but they have

209
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:34,679
Speaker 4: to headline. We want three consecutive appearances in February, and

210
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 4: we'll charge you ten thousand dollars.

211
00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 3: So he was in it for the promo more than

212
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:38,320
Speaker 3: the cash.

213
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 4: Well, he had that instinct to, you know, just be

214
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 4: out there in America. And he had made a deal

215
00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:49,080
Speaker 4: with the Beatles that they wouldn't go to America until

216
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:52,400
Speaker 4: they had a number one hit, and they did get

217
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 4: that in January of sixty four, they were number one

218
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 4: with I Want to Hold Your Hand. The Beatles celebrated

219
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 4: there in Paris, doing an eighteen night stay at a

220
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 4: theater in Paris. Brian met them in their hotel room

221
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 4: afterwards and said, you're number one in America. And things

222
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,400
Speaker 4: began to move forward to bring them in and they

223
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,960
Speaker 4: started on the Ed Sullivan Show and life here in

224
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,800
Speaker 4: America was never the same. The number one song around

225
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 4: that time number one album was The Singing Nun with

226
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 4: Dominique Bobby Vinton and even the Four Seasons and I Love.

227
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:33,160
Speaker 3: The Shocks Me and I'm not really thrilled.

228
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,079
Speaker 4: And I know that it was a big hit, that's

229
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,760
Speaker 4: why you know it. And she performed on the Ed

230
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 4: Sullivan's Show.

231
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 2: So they were very different. Mean, Elvis had already been there.

232
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,559
Speaker 2: He was probably the biggest departure for Ed.

233
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:46,959
Speaker 3: And then the Beatles came on.

234
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,080
Speaker 4: And I will tell you Elvis was not happy when

235
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: the Beatles came to America.

236
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,640
Speaker 2: I was never really they were always competition. We'll get

237
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,400
Speaker 2: into that later because we had to get some folks.

238
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,719
Speaker 3: Yes, and we have a special guest calling into.

239
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:01,679
Speaker 2: Yes, that's coming up in a little Yes. Now we

240
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:03,679
Speaker 2: have John in Somerville. John, are you going to take

241
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: a shot at that travic question or just tell us

242
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 2: about Yeah?

243
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, ma'am.

244
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 5: Actually all right, the oldest speed. The question you had

245
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 5: was who was the oldest feedle? Oh?

246
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 2: My correct, oldest beetle and youngest Beatles?

247
00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 5: Oh well, I know the oldest feeder was definitely a

248
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,120
Speaker 5: Wingo Star, that's correct. The youngest feet that's a good one,

249
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 5: I want to say, George Harrison, but I'm not one

250
00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 5: hundred percent sure that's correct.

251
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:31,079
Speaker 3: You got them both right, You got them both right?

252
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:34,439
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, So John, you must know the Beatles pretty well,

253
00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 2: when did you dism Ah?

254
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,559
Speaker 5: Well, I was born in sixty four, so they were

255
00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:44,319
Speaker 5: already out. But my brothers are fourteen years older than me,

256
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 5: twelve and fourteen years. So I've been listening to him

257
00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,559
Speaker 5: since I was a baby, and I used to start

258
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 5: singing to him when I was like six years old.

259
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 5: I had to take the court. I would just walk

260
00:12:54,600 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 5: around and sing to the music.

261
00:12:57,800 --> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 3: Wow, do you know it?

262
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: Because if you still had that tape and wonder what

263
00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 2: kind of tape recorder?

264
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,160

265
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:05,839

268
00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:14,079
Speaker 5: And I didn't get the cassette tapes until the seventies.

269
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 3: Yeah.

270
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,040

Speaker 5: I had a realistic cassette tape player and recorder, and

274
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,599
Speaker 5: I used to listen to the cassette tape on in

335
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 2: how are you hey?

336
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 5: Jotter?

337
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 3: How are you hey? Mark?

338
00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 8: So somebody already gave the question. I was responding to

339
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 8: the question about how old the oldest and the youngest

340
00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 8: Beatles are and Rindo Star was the oldest, George was

341
00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:26,400
Speaker 8: the youngest, and siddenly funny story. I remember reading that

342
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 8: h when Paul, I think, introduced George to John. John

343
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:37,960
Speaker 8: was initially not really receptive to George, considering because of

344
00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:41,000
Speaker 8: his age, he thought he was too young, and he

345
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:44,120
Speaker 8: was actually really duly impressed when George was able to

346
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 8: play a particular that GoF the song. I forget the

347
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,880
Speaker 8: name of the song now, but George at that point said, okay,

348
00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 8: you're in. So I thought that was pretty cool. I was.

349
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 8: I never saw the Beatles. I was born into seven,

350
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 8: so I remember hearing them a lot when I was

351
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 8: a young kid, but I wished I had been able

352
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:07,440
Speaker 8: to go see them, but unfortunately that never panned out.

353
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:08,720
Speaker 3: Well.

354
00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 4: They played, they played, They played in Boston twice, yeah.

355
00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 8: I had actually a friend of mine in second grade.

356
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 8: I believe he had older sisters that were going to

357
00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 8: go see the Beatles and he was going to get

358
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 8: to go with them, and I wanted to go. And

359
00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:32,040
Speaker 8: my parents were not in favor of that. I think

360
00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 8: they said something like, what are you kidding? So, but

361
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 8: that would have been great to uh have that under

362
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 8: my belt?

363
00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:40,920

00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,480

377
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 2: I went to Cambridge the Gallery where they had some

378
00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:28,320
Speaker 2: fancy music store. There got a fancy Thorn's turntable got

379
00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 2: some vinyl. I never used it because I was with

380
00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:33,359
Speaker 2: the radio shows I do. I was always looking for

381
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 2: new music. It was just taking up space and I thought,

382
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,359
Speaker 2: I'm selling this and I'm selling the vinyl, and I

383
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 2: never looked back.

384
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 9: You must have a thunderous amount of vinyl, huge, predominantly

385
00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 9: obviously Beatles, but there are other titles in there, but

386
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:54,320
Speaker 9: hundreds and hundreds and maybe thousands, but then and then

Speaker 9: CDs as well, because you know it's not I have

388

390
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,800
Speaker 4: your job. Yeah, it's part of my job. But I

391
00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 4: was doing that well before I became a DJ. But

392
00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,600
Speaker 4: I always wanted to be a DJ because of the Beatles.

00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:25,840
Speaker 2: Hello, yeah, great, So this is pretty straightforward. Yeah, I'm

437
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,160
Speaker 2: sure you've told this story before, so tell it from

438
00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,240
Speaker 2: the beginning and all kinds of beautiful detail as you do.

439
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:38,439
Speaker 6: Okay, sure, thank you. Well. It was the end of

440
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 6: April nineteen sixty three, as some family friends had returned

441
00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,639
Speaker 6: from a trip to the UK. I had just turned

442
00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 6: thirteen years old and they didn't know what to bring

443
00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,719
Speaker 6: me back, so they went into a local records store

444
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,320
Speaker 6: and they thought, hey, you know, she's a teenager now,

445
00:21:55,359 --> 00:22:00,199
Speaker 6: she has to like music. So they asked what the

446
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 6: best selling record was at the time, and he pointed,

447
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,760
Speaker 6: I guess to this album, and they bought it. It

448
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,919
Speaker 6: was called Please Please Me by this little known group

449
00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 6: called the Beatles. They I remember the night so distinctly

450
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 6: when they knocked on our door, our front door, and

451
00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 6: handed me this square looking brown paper kind of thing

452
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,879
Speaker 6: tied with string and I opened it up and I

453
00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 6: saw like the four cutest guys on the cover that

454
00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 6: I had ever seen. I thought they were just so adorable.

455
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 6: And remember we were coming out of a time then

456
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 6: where it was like I always talk about all the Bobby's,

457
00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 6: from Bobby Van to Bobby Vint and Rye to Bob Dare,

458
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,080
Speaker 6: and it was all Bobby's, you know. And I looked

459
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,639
Speaker 6: at these guys and theyse were so cute. So the

460
00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 6: next day I went to school and I told everyone, Hey,

461
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 6: you have to come and hear this record that I

462
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:11,720
Speaker 6: just got. And a few people came over after school.

463
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 6: In the next few days, absolutely no one liked the Beatles.

464
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 6: As a matter of fact, our local supermarket that was

465
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:25,919
Speaker 6: called Grand Union, I was in one afternoon with my

466
00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:29,600
Speaker 6: mom and another woman came over, was the mom of

467
00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 6: a friend, and pointed her finger at me and said

468
00:23:34,840 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 6: to my mom, do not let your daughter anywhere near

469
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:44,520
Speaker 6: my daughter again, because she keeps talking about these guys

470
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 6: and she is a bad influence on everyone. So I

471
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 6: just kept quiet, and I had to find someone who

472
00:23:54,840 --> 00:24:00,199
Speaker 6: loved the Beatles. So fortunately, on my grandmother's floor in

473
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:04,080
Speaker 6: her apartment building in New York lived a woman who

474
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,440
Speaker 6: came from Liverpool. I brought the record to her and

475
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,640
Speaker 6: I said, can you find anyone in Liverpool? She said,

476
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:17,200
Speaker 6: I don't have people there any longer. But she worked

477
00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,159
Speaker 6: at a big ad agency in Manhattan called doll Dane Burnback.

478
00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,439
Speaker 6: They had a London office and she went and she

479
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 6: found out about a fan club, and I wrote a

480
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 6: letter to the fan club asking if I could join.

481
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:37,440
Speaker 6: I never heard anything back. This was about the second

482
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 6: week of May, I'd say, nineteen sixty three, and I

483
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 6: waited and waited. I went away the summer camp, sleep away,

484
00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 6: and I kept sending postcards. Never anything until it was

485
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,240
Speaker 6: Halloween weekend that year. I came home from school and

486
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 6: there was my mom standing with a yellow piece of

487
00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:04,920
Speaker 6: paper or a Western Union telegram from a lawyer's office

488
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 6: in New York. This lawyer's name was Walter Hoffer, and

489
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 6: asked for me to call his office because the Beatles

490
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 6: management were coming to New York to plan a trip

491
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 6: and appearances of the Beatles and what I'd be available. Well,

492
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:28,480
Speaker 6: I begged my mother to call, and she did and

493
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:32,240
Speaker 6: they arranged a time for me to come to New York.

494
00:25:33,240 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 6: The town I lived in in New Jersey was just

495
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 6: about twenty six miles away, and my dad drove me. Fortunately,

496
00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 6: it was Veterans Day and I didn't even have school.

497
00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:52,360
Speaker 6: I walked into the office of this law office and

498
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 6: was greeted hello, and you remember I was just thirteen

499
00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 6: years old, and we were asked do we want something

500
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:06,440
Speaker 6: to drink? And in the distance to my left, I

501
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:10,919
Speaker 6: saw three men standing around an oval conference room table,

502
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,880
Speaker 6: and there were two of the men that had the

503
00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:20,480
Speaker 6: most beautiful British accents, and I was introduced to Brian Epstein.

504
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 6: There he My distinct memory is of his gold cup

505
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 6: links that absolutely flashed and reflected off the light. And

506
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,640
Speaker 6: they asked me, would I be able to gather up

507
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:41,159
Speaker 6: fans and not just start a fan club, but also

508
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,120
Speaker 6: collect fans to greet the Beatles at the airport when

509
00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:48,239
Speaker 6: they came and at their hotel.

510
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:49,040
Speaker 8: As they planned.

511
00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:55,520
Speaker 6: And I said, I'm sorry, you know, I'm only thirteen well,

512
00:26:55,840 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 6: they sort of all looked at me and under stood

513
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 6: shook my dad's hand, my hand. But the secretary there

514
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 6: to the lawyer, Walter Hoffer, pulled me aside as I

515
00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 6: left and said, mister Hoffer has motioned to me. Mister

516
00:27:15,119 --> 00:27:19,520
Speaker 6: Epstein said, they might still need you in the future,

517
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:25,199
Speaker 6: but as a thank you for your time, if the

518
00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 6: deal is agreed upon this evening with Ed Sullivan and

519
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 6: if the appearance happens, we will send you a ticket

520
00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 6: to go and see them perform on the Ed Sullivan Show.

521
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 6: That's how I received my ticket.

522
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,600
Speaker 2: Well, you know what perfect place to take a break.

523
00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,480
Speaker 2: First of all, I knew you were going to be

524
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,080
Speaker 2: a good storyteller. That's why I didn't interrupt you. And

525
00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,640
Speaker 2: you've created a tension, and you've got your ticket to.

526
00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,160
Speaker 3: Go on the Ed Sullivan Show.

527
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,600
Speaker 2: And even if you don't know what the Ed Sullivan Show, folks,

528
00:28:00,720 --> 00:28:04,000
Speaker 2: this is a thirteen year old person, thirteen year old

529
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:07,520
Speaker 2: kid who's going to a giant show. So that's all

530
00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:08,800
Speaker 2: you need to know. It doesn't have to be the

531
00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,040
Speaker 2: Ed Sullivan's Show. It could be Saturday Night Live or something.

532
00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 2: It's a big deal. It's actually way bigger than Saturday

533
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 2: Night Live. So we're gonna get the rest of this

534
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,680
Speaker 2: juicy story after this on WBZ. Thanks Debbie, don't go

535
00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 2: away More to come.

536
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:29,200
Speaker 1: Night Side with Dan Ray on WBZY, Boston's news radio.

537
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 2: Brad Lujay and for Dan one more night this week.

538
00:28:32,520 --> 00:28:35,440
Speaker 2: Here's what we're doing in case you just joined us. Firstly,

539
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 2: it's February. February is a February is a big Beatles

540
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:44,080
Speaker 2: month in Beatles history. So I've invited Chachi to Prett

541
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,200
Speaker 2: Beatles Historian to be on the show. And Chachi is

542
00:28:47,360 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: very connected to folks, very interesting folks such as Debbie Kendler,

543
00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,680
Speaker 2: who is actually was invited to go to the Ed

544
00:28:55,760 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: Sullivan Show to see the Beatles when they're very when

545
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 2: they first got here.

546
00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 3: That's right.

547
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 4: And one thing you should know is that Ed Sullivan

548
00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:07,360
Speaker 4: Theater holds seven hundred people in the Ed Sullivan Organization

549
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:11,160
Speaker 4: got fifty thousand requests for tickets, so it's.

550
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 3: A huge deal.

551
00:29:12,080 --> 00:29:14,920
Speaker 2: And you don't have to be old to appreciate this.

552
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 2: Just you know, it's like, Okay, say you're a teen

553
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 2: who loves Taylor Swift, and Taylor Swift management said, you

554
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 2: want to you know, you want to go on a

555
00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:27,760
Speaker 2: TV show and watch Taylor Swift, and we want you

556
00:29:27,840 --> 00:29:30,240
Speaker 2: to like, we want you to be part of our organization.

557
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 3: Kind it's a giant thing.

558
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:39,120
Speaker 2: So we have established how Debbie got her tickets. Now

559
00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 2: we're gonna pick up the story where she, you know,

560
00:29:42,560 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 2: is getting ready to go to the show, et cetera.

561
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:47,120
Speaker 3: You're a very good storyteller.

562
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,760
Speaker 2: Again, unless I need to, I'm not going to interrupt,

563
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 2: So go for it.

564
00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:57,880
Speaker 6: Okay, great. Well, you know the time between of me

565
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,760
Speaker 6: being offered the ticket and its arriving in the mail,

566
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:09,840
Speaker 6: of course, there was assassination, you know it. It devastated

567
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:15,720
Speaker 6: you know, America and the world. And out of nowhere

568
00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 6: came the music of the Beatles. In mid December, radio

569
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 6: stations started playing I Want to Hold Your Hand. Capitol

570
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 6: Records moved the release up of the of this single.

571
00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,360
Speaker 6: And I was at school where I was still being

572
00:30:36,480 --> 00:30:41,320
Speaker 6: berated by everyone as this lunatic and crazy kids who

573
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:47,160
Speaker 6: loved these you know, troublesome four boys from Liverpool. And

574
00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:52,000
Speaker 6: I finally got my ticket the week before in the mail,

575
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,840
Speaker 6: and I spent a full day trying to decide what

576
00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,640
Speaker 6: in the world I was going to wear to the

577
00:30:57,720 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 6: show because the Beatles might look at me and what

578
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 6: did you wear?

579
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,520
Speaker 3: I will interact to ask what you wore?

580
00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 6: Oh, okay, well I wore this white blouse with a

581
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 6: sweater a skirt, and my mother gave me a necklace

582
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 6: that I still have that I wore that necklace perfect.

583
00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:27,520
Speaker 6: But it took a long time to decide because you know,

584
00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:31,000
Speaker 6: they might they might see me. But by then, you know,

585
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:36,520
Speaker 6: the Beatles were so popular, the DJs on frequent rotation

586
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:41,280
Speaker 6: with their music, and you know, everything was Beatles and Beatles.

587
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 6: The DJs in New York that I can speak to,

588
00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:48,080
Speaker 6: like Murray the Kay and Cousin Brucey and the WMCA

589
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 6: good guy. I mean, it was near hysteria.

590
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:53,200
Speaker 5: Okay.

591
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:59,680
Speaker 6: We drove on that Sunday night from New Jersey into

592
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 6: New York. My mom took me. I had to battle

593
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 6: my way into the theater. Finally she gave me a

594
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 6: push over the shoulder because there were all these police

595
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 6: officers on horseback that were like guarding the entrance from

596
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 6: Broadway into the theater, and so I couldn't even get through,

597
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,960
Speaker 6: and my mom kept telling him she has a ticket.

598
00:32:27,520 --> 00:32:33,560
Speaker 6: So they pushed me through and they immediately grabbed my ticket.

599
00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:38,840
Speaker 6: No ticket stubs. Okay, they took the entire ticket. That's

600
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 6: what they said was their procedure. Because I really wanted

601
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 6: to have a souvenir, but they took it away and

602
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 6: I was led up.

603
00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 10: To the mezzanine.

604
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 6: Well, there was so much rushing around, I thought, oh,

605
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,479
Speaker 6: mezzanine I really wanted. I saw people going into the

606
00:32:55,600 --> 00:32:59,280
Speaker 6: orchestra and I wanted to be closer. But I figured, oh,

607
00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:02,200
Speaker 6: you know, I'll just follow the rules and I went

608
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:06,200
Speaker 6: up to the mezzanine, which really worked out quite well

609
00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:10,280
Speaker 6: because if you see the video of that first show,

610
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 6: you can see that the Beatles really played to us

611
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:20,000
Speaker 6: up in the mezzanine and balcony versus the you know,

612
00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:23,880
Speaker 6: walckestra seating where there were lots of camera booms and

613
00:33:24,240 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 6: camera equipment which blocked a lot of people's views. So there, let.

614
00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 2: Me let me I want to just interject something here

615
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,680
Speaker 2: then to give it perspective. That's a small place, seven

616
00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 2: hundred folks, right, seven hundred people. It's about as big

617
00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,600
Speaker 2: as the Paradise as I understand it, right, Yeah, and

618
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,720
Speaker 2: that's the Beatles in the Paradise.

619
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:47,280
Speaker 3: Imagine that exactly and I've been in the Ed Sullivan Theater.

620
00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 3: It's small, so it's like Paradise a little smaller.

621
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 4: Maybe, well, it's a different layout from the Paradise. It's

622
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:55,200
Speaker 4: like a small orphium theater.

623
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 2: All right, And one other thing before you go on, Debbie,

624
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 2: I have David Gallant on a caller, and I don't

625
00:34:01,920 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 2: want to exclude any callers. So I'm going to just

626
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,920
Speaker 2: bring David on. Ask him if he has a question

627
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:09,759

644
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:04,120
Speaker 6: going to sit there calmly and take it all in. However,

645
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:08,760
Speaker 6: gal behind me, there was a group of like four

646
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:13,480
Speaker 6: friends sitting right behind me. They were screaming so that

647
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,360
Speaker 6: I looked at them and I just lost it off.

648
00:35:16,920 --> 00:35:20,240
Speaker 6: I started to scream, started to move up and down

649
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 6: in my seat, and then Ed came out and said,

650
00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 6: ladies and gentlemen, this famous line the Beatles, and all

651
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,800

00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 6: was sixty two years and so you know it was,

663
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:09,480
Speaker 6: you know, Paul went immediately into all my loving and

664
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:13,720
Speaker 6: I just couldn't believe that right in front of my eyes,

665
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:19,800
Speaker 6: breathing the same air, were the Beatles, and like everyone else,

666
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 6: we were going crazy. Okay, crazy there and it was

667
00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 6: just no containing. It was, you know, everyone except for

00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,760
Speaker 6: a couple of guys. Now, there were a couple guys

669
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:36,640
Speaker 6: a few rows ahead of me, up to my right,

670
00:36:37,120 --> 00:36:40,760
Speaker 6: and they were just sitting there and I remember looking

671
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,080
Speaker 6: at them and I could not believe that they had

672
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:48,320
Speaker 6: taken up two seats and they seemed like they were bored.

673
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,280
Speaker 6: You know. It was just like amazing. But the Beatles,

674
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 6: it was over in a flash and Ed said they're

675
00:36:55,800 --> 00:37:02,040
Speaker 6: coming back. But the next act was this magician something.

676
00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 6: It was torturous. And then came uh Midstee McCall and

677
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:20,280
Speaker 6: Charlie Brill, this husband and wife act, and it was okay,

678
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 6: and then they came back for their last you know

679
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:29,799
Speaker 6: set of songs, ending with you know, they did I

680
00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:32,840
Speaker 6: Want to Hold Your Hand. I saw her standing there

681
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:39,240
Speaker 6: and it was like wow, it took my breath away

682
00:37:39,800 --> 00:37:43,720
Speaker 6: and everyone else's. And then suddenly there was Edge saying
