Singing on the step


Here is the 2nd fan photo I have seen of a Beatle singing to a fan that is waiting on the steps at the studio for the Beatles. I have seen a much smaller version of this photo, and it looked like John was yelling at this fan! But after seeing this bigger one and also reading a little about it, I have learned that John was singing to her! If you recall, I have posted a photo that showed a tanned George singing with a guitar to Carol Bedford. Makes you wonder how often the guys came out and sang to people. :) It is a nice thought, isn't it?

  3. That is my friend Helaine from New York and he is singing "Every time I hear a baby cry" or something similar to that, I have to ask her the details again.

  4. Don't worry Lizzie, I got this one :

    Helaine became a FacePal in the last year, after I'd plucked this very snap from somewhere and gave it the clean-up it deserved.
    Truer colors, less of that infamous "rust-o-vision" too !

    So . . here's a link to that, where you can also scroll thru the comment-thread to find Helaine's juicier then you'd hope for description of that event and what even led up to it.
    I'm so pleased I get to share it some more !

  6. "John sang "Everytime I hear a new born baby cry or touch a leaf or see the sky" to Helaine who was whinning to him that he was going to be on TV and there was no TV where she was staying!
