The Beatles in Stockholm in 1964








No, these aren't good pictures.   However, I love the fact that they are authentic photographs taken by a fan at a Beatles concert with colored film.    The are a snapshot of a moment in time that will never be repeated, so we have to appreciate them for that.

  1. It is not the Beatles on the fourth picture.

  2. That second shot reminds me of the old days when you dropped off your film to be developed and prints made. Until they were ready days (weeks?) later, you got your hopes up over the great shots you took. Then when you picked them up and saw how badly they turned out-- it was soul crushing!

  3. I agree! And I think that is what I find so charming about these photos. The fan that took that photo most likely thought that he/she took an awesome photo of the Beatles just to see that the heads were cut off. Oh no!

  4. Why "UK Autumn tour 1964" tag?
