Thanks, Barry; when I get caught up I'll have to watch that, along with The Birth of the Beatles.

Since we were discussing Brian Epstein's A Cellarful of Noise, this is a good time to watch Petula Clark perform I Know a Place...

She was 33 years old at the time but it made no difference.  I had a big crush on her.  What a cutie-pie!

Hello:  The "Place" sure sounds like the Casbah to me.

There was a film announced last year, Midas Man, about Brian. It had a director announced and filming was supposed to begin.  It seems it’s still in pre production. Which suggests it’s been shelved.

Yay!

14 March 1965


I just wanted to watch Petula Clark sing I Know A Place again.  This was her first time on The Ed Sullivan Show.  Her flight arrived 45 minutes before the show started and she performed without rehearsing.

That night she also sang Downtown...

I posted this TODAY, not sure why it's dated August 11 and got bumped.

I saw a post on another page which asked if the Rolling Stones should consider hiring Pete Best to replace Charlie Watts.

What do you all think about this?

I was thinking The Stones have no Bass player or drummer.
Should they get Paul & Ringo, thats all the Beatles have left, should they join ?

As for the Pete idea, Id love to see it but it'll never happen.

Unlike A Cellarful of Noise, Debbie Geller's book is inexpensive in either hard or soft cover used editions.

A Cellarful of Noise has apparently been re-released, likely in anticipation of Midas Man (?). I just got it on Amazon for ~USD14.00.
