The businessman

Ringo at Apple

 October 22, 1973 

Remembering Jack Oliver

 Former President of Apple Records (1969-1971), Jack Oliver passed away this weekend.    I met Jack in 2015 at the Chicago Fest for Beatle fans and he was a very nice man.   I recall him talking about how he survived the "wrath of Klein" and was not fired.   Must love and sympathy to his family and friends.

The picture

 

For as long as I have been a Beatles fan, I swear I have been trying to figure out information about this picture that hung near Derek Taylor's desk at the Apple offices on Savile Row.   Sure this is a nice enough photo of Peter Brown, but it is the picture above him that I care about.   

I have never seen this photo outside of being in the background of photos taken inside of Apple offices.  This is the best version I have seen.    It appears to have been taken backstage during the 1965 U.K. tour in the Winter of 1965.   People have speculated that the girl is Maureen Cleeve, but I really don't think it is.    Again I will ask -- does anyone know anything about who is the photo, where it was taken and why it was hanging in Derek Taylor's office?

Get out of your seats and into the streets

 

March 31, 1971 -   A few questions here.   Did they really hang up posters on the outside of the door at Apple?  How long after they closed the door did fans take it?   Speaking of fans -- who are the girls standing on each side of the door?   Is the guard the well loved guy that everyone called "Sarg?"
