I've just stoped laughing at 'Chris' Richard - oh yeah, I remember him!! I was part of the Swinging 60s, bunking off school to scream at anything that moved in trousers with a guitar (Freddie and the Dreamers anyone?). fantastic times, we broke away, no role models, first generation teenagers dressing as we wanted, not how our mothers dictated, listening to totally disapproved of (degenerate, my granny called it) music, Rolling Stones concerts in Hyde Park, maybe I'll write about it someday! Thanks for bringing this back, Martin. Lived in Liverpool for 25 years and didn't know this was Beatles Day

Thanks for the fun trip down memory lane.

I honestly had never thought of the Beatles as a force of social change but am so glad they were and feel that my life growing up with their music would have been the poorer without. Thanks so much for this, Martin.
