Before photographer Iain Macmillan stepped onto a ladder on Abbey Road back on August 8, 1969, Paul McCartney sketched out these rough pencil concept drawings to show him exactly what he envisioned. Mapping out the zebra crossing, street perspective, and stick figures walking single file, McCartney's simple drawing laid the groundwork for an iconic cover shoot that took just ten minutes to complete outside EMI Studios.
This is the original album artwork idea for “Revolver” - the four faces of The Beatles were intended to blend into one as you spun the record sleeve, however the idea was ultimately rejected.
On July 27, 1976, John Lennon was officially granted his U.S. Permanent Resident Card in New York City. After a long, highly publicized four-year legal fight against deportation efforts, Lennon finally won the right to legally reside and work in the United States.
Today marks a year since Dead and Company played our last of three shows in Golden Gate Park helping to celebrate 60 years of @GratefulDead . It would also become Bob Weir’s last appearance onstage. I wanted to take a moment to share with you just how incredible those concerts really were. Bobby’s insistence on standing on that stage in the midst of a complex health battle to perform nine hours of music over three nights was one of the greatest acts of heroism I will ever see in my lifetime. I watched him sidestep every traditional burden of entertainers - ego, superficial pride, vanity, to name a few - and sing his songs with pure heart and grit. He transcended his physical limitations by ignoring them. Bobby Weir, ever the contrarian, laid down his ultimate act of defiance; he was going to play these shows on his terms. He could have explained his situation in one online post, and the crowd would have lifted him like a giant wave up to glory. Fuck that. That wasn’t Bobby. Deal the cards. By the end of Sunday night, we’d created as many musical sparks as we ever had over a three night run. What he had to overcome in order to pull that off won’t ever be fully known to anyone. Some of the songs Bobby would play for the last time were shared with artists he loved and respected, @BillyStrings , #sturgillsimpson, #grahamelesh, @treyanastasio , and they’ve come to serve as a spiritual transfer. A blur between past, present and future. Like it’s always been. To use his own term, those three nights were the star in Bob Weir’s heavenly crown. The man you loved, whose music has given a more expansive inner life to us all, never backed down. In his final shows, after 60 years, he lived up to every measure of a person he’d ever stood for. It’s a master class of a life lesson, and I’ll take it with me forever.
On this day 58 years ago, the Beatles began recording “Hey Jude” at EMI Studios in London ✨
The early session featured Paul on piano and vocals, John on acoustic guitar, George on electric guitar and Ringo on drums. Work continued the following day before the song was completed at Trident Studios 🎙️🎹🎸
Written by Paul as a message of reassurance to John’s son Julian, “Hey Jude” went on to become one of the Beatles’ best-loved songs ⭐
