Sim, mas não...

Citando:

"Baez also tells a story about the time she turned down John Lennon: “About four o’clock in the morning, John tumbled in, and it was like he felt compelled to make some sort of overture to me… I said to him, ‘John, you are probably as beat as I am. I’m not up for it, either’. He looked so relieved.”"

1966-05: Dylan e Lennon em filme?

Sim. E pedrados. Wow:

1967-05-17: Início da gravação do "You Know My Name"...

... Uma das mais estranhas músicas dos Beatles (a partir de uma ideia em forma de mantra de John Lennon). Continuada em 7 de Junho de 1967 e numa série de outras sessões de gravação (e com a presença de Brian Jones no sax, do Stones, numa delas) até Março de 1969. Editada apenas em 1970:

1970-05-13: Let it be, premieres

Let it be premieres. A film whose critics didn't like, won an Oscar and a Grammy (but not for Ringo, by mistake):

2020-05: Kraftwerk and the Beatles...

https://www.laweekly.com/kraftwerk-are-more-influential-than-the-beatles-let-us-explain/

"The pop century has been dominated by the goliath shadow of Mount Beatle. We presume that every musician and every listener were constantly aware of The Beatles’ sassy silhouette and wedding cake frosted recordings as they thought about what it meant to make music, hear music, be a part of the Popsi Generation.

But take a look at the pop music world in 2017. Take a good look. You will find that The Beatles are no longer the most influential pop band in the Western world.

Kraftwerk are."

2020-05: Morre little Richard...

... e Ringo Starr lembra-se disso:

Citando:

""When I got there, I couldn’t retake the shot," McBean later recalled. "A new porch had been built and I couldn’t get into the same position. However, EMI asked if I could come back in a week. Meanwhile, the whole new porch was pulled down and we tried again.”

They regrouped on May 13, four days after they thought they'd completed mixing of the record, and got the picture they wanted. "Ringo Starr was so late that the staff of EMI was streaming down the stairs," McBean noted. "I got the camera fixed up, and John, fascinated by photography, came and lay down beside me to look at my viewfinder. I can still hear the screams of the EMI girls as the realized who they were stepping over to get out the door!""
