GB. England. Beaulie Jazz Festival. As youngsters embraced on the village green the locals behaved like tourists, fascinated by their ‚Äúlewd‚Äù behaviour. Liberation started with the young and in this setting it was a novelty. 1961.

I photographed the Beatles during their first concert in Liverpool. (Forgotten the name of the theatre, The Empire, perhaps.) I spent most of the time in their dressing room getting to know them. The highlight was the reading of letters from female fans that shocked the group. ‚ÄúHow do they even know about this stuff!‚Äù was one remark. Liverpool. England. 1963.
