The Rolling Stones cover the Beatles in unreleased footage

Beatles or Stones? It's the oldest question in rock, but in some unreleased archival footage from director Peter Whitehead's "Charlie Is My Darling," one doesn't have to choose.

Enjoy the new colorful 'Yellow Submarine' at Libbey Bowl in Ojai

For 11 months in 1967-68, Bob Balser pumped color and pizazz into the Blue Meanies, the Sea of Monsters and the world's most famous rock 'n' roll band
Balser will be on hand as an honoree when that remastered edition of "Yellow Submarine" launches the 13th Ojai Film Festival as the traditional opening night free public screening at 7 p.m. Thursday in Libbey Bowl (itself another recently restored piece of art).

From the time Ringo Starr joined, to the moment John Lennon left, The Beatles were together just seven years. And give or take a few line-up changes, The Bootleg Beatles have been going more than four times that.

Beatles tribute rocks Golden Nugget on Oct. 27

The Beatles called it quits after fewer than a dozen years. Imagine what it’s like to play in a Beatles tribute band for 28 years.
How do you stop from getting bored performing in “1964 – The Tribute”? It isn’t like the performers can switch parts. “For me, it does not get stale,” said Mark Benson, who plays John Lennon. “We play the best music ever written.” And therein lies the seed for the longevity: The Beatles are still popular, with almost every age group.
