I skipped that book but did appreciate that it took 2 Americans to show us where Beatle sights are in my own country. Cool gift Joe. It must be frustrating not being able to a drive to see the slights.

Terrific book , used it in 1994 in trip to Liverpool and London and as a reference for trip to Hamburg in 2009. Plus it is nice that he has a KZfaq channel. Interesting guy. Nice of him to send you a copy.

I remember wanting to purchase this book many years ago, but as a teenager never had the money to buy it. I thought then my money was better spent on vinyl. Glad I was right! An excellent book for sure. I do regret not buying it. It would still be in my collection. I did just pick up the Beatles - Get Back book from Ollies for a mere $12. What a deal!

Hi Joe. Very cool book, it very cool that Norman was a first generation Beatles fan & heard them in real time. Speaking of books, i remember buying beatles books in the 70's, one was called An Illustrated Record, i bought at a bookstore in a mall i thnk it was Waldenbooks, i loved that book. The other book i bought in the 70's, was when i was visiting my grandparents in florida, i think the store was in a mall, i think the name of the book was Memories or growing-up with the Beatles, the cover had flowers in front of them. Today i have a nice little collection of cool Beatles books & speaking of pins i have a nice little collection of pins, some rare ones.

Hi Joe - So I am watching this video and I hear you talk about a Beatles show from many years ago. A show that was on college radio from Adelphi Univ. Well, I was the co-host of that show, "The Beatles Hour," which was heard every Monday night from 1979 to 1984 on WBAU 90.3FM. We had a pretty good listenership which I guess included you! Wild to hear you mention it! Your name is familiar and I think may may have even written us. Way back then we were the original KZfaqrs. Haha. Anyway, I still love the Beatles and thanks for the big smile you gave me.
@MeanMrMayo7 ай бұрын
Hell, yes! And I was a regular weekly caller known as "The Beatlemaniac"! Yep...of course I recall you, as well as Al and Tom. And the annual get-togethers at the campus in August! I vividly recall everyone's excitement when we learned that John Lennon was back in the studio recording again ... and then you guys did the usual Monday night show that sad December 8th, just a few hours before we lost John. As a matter of fact, I recorded many shows on cassette and still had them for years. During Hurricane Sandy I broke them out and played many of them on an old battery operated tape player, while the lights and electric was out! When I moved in 2015 I can't recall whether I took them with me or not ..? So amazing to hear from you, Jeff - wow! And yes, "Original KZfaqrs" is a perfect description!
@jefffilippi65127 ай бұрын
Joe - After I sent the message to you last night I thought that I bet Joe was "The Beatlemaniac," as his name was Joe and that is the case. That is so great! Can't believe how many years have passed but all is good and I still enjoy following and talking Beatles. A lot of great memories from that show along with the one unfortunate one from Dec. 1980. I have watched your videos but never made the connection. Glad I heard the reference to the show yesterday!

Except Norman recently repeated in one of your live streams the totally false stupid thing Pete Townsend said about The Beatles musicianship in a 1966 interview. In a 2009 interview Pete Tonsend said that The Beatles were always musically innovative.

Yes I did quote what Pete said in 66. And I know he said how innovated they were too.
