Deserves a second look!

Dan, for a moment I thought this was
John, Paul and George of 'the Beatles.'
Didn't Paul grow his face long right
after the "Abbey Road" album??? :)

Re: Deserves a second look!

Are meteorologists the rock starts of the 19th century??

Re: Deserves a second look!

Surely that's George on the left, John in the middle and Paul on the right? Paul's standing on the others' guitars - which is why GH and JL are looking especially un-Love-Me-Do - and he's holding the spiked stick with which he prodded JL into the later recording sessions and tried to keep Yoko out of them. Notice that his smug expression hasn't changed in 40 years.

LOL !! Ringo was the SMART Beatle, because
he managed to stay out of the picture. Or,
maybe Ringo was mad because Paul had burned
(smoked) his drum sticks?? :)))

You guys are crazy! Of course Ringo is there, who do you think took the picture?!

LMAO!
People used to say that Ringo wasn't even the best drummer in The Beatles....

Re: Deserves a second look!

Actually, I did the research. This
photo was taken by the Beatle's record
producer, Mister George Martin. At that
time, Yoko Ono was in a hotel in Toronto,
preparing for what would be the creation
of the "Live Peace in Toronto" album.
The rest is pretty much history.
