I was born on the day of Sgt. Peppers' release in Australia in 1967! I have been a Beatles fan from early childhood when my Dad would watch The Beatles cartoons on TV and tape their songs onto a hand held cassette player!! lol. The music won me over forever.
I still remember the exact place I was when I heard of John's senseless passing in 1980. It changed my life. I needed to know more about him and The Beatles and so started collecting seriously and reading everything I could to know their incredible story. I have amassed a collection which now fills a complete room in my house! Facebook has given me the opportunity to finally share this collection with the many wonderful friends I have met from all around the world.
I have my own Facebook page Earth's Collectors & Experiences, which is just a bit of fun for people to share whatever they like.
Incredibly hard to select ONE favourite Beatles song, but I forever get a thrill everytime I hear that keyboard intro to I Am The Walrus! Other notables among plenty, are A Day In The Life, Revolution, In My Life, You've Got To Hide Your Love Away etc. etc.
A Day In The Life
