The Beatles

Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison and Ringo Starr

 

The de Young Museum in San Francisco is currently showing an exhibit of photos entitiled 'Eyes of the Storm' that record the Beatles' experiences from late 1963 and early months of 1964 when Beatlemania erupted in the UK. It also records their tours to Paris, New York, Washington, D.C. and Miami. The exhibit was initially shown at the National Gallery in London.

 

Inspired by the re-discovery of nearly a thousand photographs taken by McCartney on a 35mm camera, the exhibit also includes images made by other photographers of the Beatles and their associates.

 

It was an extraordinary time in the lives of these four young men as they became "the most famous people on the planet."

 

Seeing the exhibit certainly took me back to the 1960's and the first appearance of the Beatles on The Ed Sullivan Show.

 

Thanks for stopping by!
