The Simpsons always finds a way to keep things fresh for its fans after decades of episodes. But it's Easter eggs like Paul McCartney's recipe that show just how many surprises are littered throughout the series. However, it's hard to say how many more are still hiding in plain sight with so many episodes."
Is it normal that a band that ended on 1970 still gets radio airplay and frequent references in the social media almost every day here in Europe? This is a very personal and somewhat infomal logbook of some of these references to The Beatles as a proof of their everlasting relevance and continuing influence over the years. As if they needed. Also includes highlights of promotions and some additional info on the band. Mainly in Portuguese (sorry guys).

2019-09: Paul McCartney sobre o trabalho de Linda
https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2019/jun/26/paul-mccartney-on-lindas-best-photos-seeing-the-joy-between-me-and-john-really-helped-me
Citando:
"‘I always used to joke that I ruined Linda’s career,” says Paul McCartney, sitting on a sofa in his office in Soho, London, with a selection of his late wife’s photographs spread on the table before him. “She became known as ‘Paul’s wife’, instead of the focus being on her photography. But, as time went on, people started to realise that she was the real thing. So, yeah, she eventually did get the correct reputation, but at first it was just blown out of the water by the headline-grabbing marriage.”"

Mary McCartney fotógrafa como a mãe:
https://news.artnet.com/art-world/mary-linda-mccartney-gagosian-368093
Citando:
"Linda, a musician, photographer, and the late wife of Beatles bassist Paul McCartney, began taking pictures in the ’60s, documenting her time spent among dazzling musicians such as Jimi Hendrix, Mick Jagger, and Aretha Franklin. She was the first female photographer to shoot the cover of Rolling Stone; six years later, in 1974, she appeared on the cover herself, along with her husband.
Mary later followed suit, taking care to capture everything from a backstage portrait of pop star Rihanna to an intimate shot with fashion designer Vivienne Westwood, as well as allowing a glimpse into her family’s unexpected domestic rituals."
