This Wednesday 30th Jan at Saville Row , they'll be marking this anniversary and i'll probably pop along at lunchtime . Tony Barrel will sign copies of his book on the roof. Has anyone got this book ? The double bonus for me of living in London and having Wednesday as a day off.

Yes i know what you mean but i'll try and pick up a copy today. You say you've given up reading Beatle books, but have you not read Hunter Davies biography that's a great read.

Got Tony Barrells autograph, there was a pretty good crowd turned up along with CBS camera people their too but no sign of Ringo or Paul , and the Beatles walk chap Richard turned up with a large group and gave some more facts on the day. www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-47055236

Too bad the Let It Be movie wasn't released for the 50th. At the very least a new full rooftop concert should have been released or shown on TV to commemorate the event.

A short clip from the anniversary... Thanks for that, yes i saw a small US tv crew there, shame The BBC or Sky never marked the occasion. The tour guide talking is Richard Porter who won Beatles Brain of Britain , knows his stuff, I went on his Magical Mystery tour walk , it was very enjoyable for me as i'm a huge Beatles fan but for the part time supporter it may be a little dry . I've now got Get Back in my head since i played the clip. Just found this review of the Beatles walk tour. As much as i enjoyed Richard's tour he was a very closed person and i agree with this chaps criticisms that he was a little rude, maybe he's done this job for a little too long. . www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g186338-d187739-r146095920-London_Walks-London_England.html

I went on a tour one time along time ago of 'Falling Water'. The house designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright. And I remember the guide was upset that people didn't know the basic stuff about him and some never even heard of him, but were there only because of their spouses. lol
