Astrid will be holding her exhibition in Liverpool this year, which will last for several months. I'm trying to get her to give a talk during the John Lennon season. It would be nice to do some sort of tie up with Stuart. I am trying to organise something with Stuart's best friend and flat mate at the college, Rod Murray, who was also asked by John to become their bass guitarist. As you know, as both Stu and Rod had no money, it would depend on who came up with a guitar first. Rod actually began to make one - and still has it, but before he could complete it, Stuart sold the painting. History was changed by that event.....Rod Murray, bass guitarist with the Beatles!
