Lizzie's special day


First of all I have to say just how much I love Miss Tammy. You know if I had myway, I might just have to fly down to Australia and give Miss Tammy a great big hug and a kiss! Not only does Tammy make me happy by posting on the Beatles photo blog with great photos all of the time but also I was sent this scan from her copy of the Black Album of a photo that I took at Beatlefest of a photo.

Here we have a John fan photo. It is a nice one as well. But it is more than just any old John Lennon fan photo. It is the one and only known photograph taken the day that Lizzie joined the Beatles in the recording studio to record "Across the Universe." How is that for a piece of Beatles history?

The Black Album




At Beatlefest there is a room that is filled with records from all around the world. This year they had an old vinyl bootleg called "The Black Album" on display (well they may have had it there in years past and I just missed it). With it was the poster that came with the original Black album. It was meant to copy the White Album poster and I think it does a pretty good job. However, one fan snapshot of John Lennon from the Black Album poster caught my eye because I had never seen it before. So here is the black album poster (taken from BZ) and the photo I tried to take and zoom in on John from the poster at Beatlefest.
