It is the time of the year to remember those who escaped from this virus ridden Earth. We present a few of those departed who played a role in the Beatles history. Paul McCartney improvises on the piano on a theme by Samuel Barber, "Adagio for Strings'.
Peter Green, guitarist of Fleetwood Mac and composer of 'Albatross' is remembered by Mac Fleetwood. Albatross was the inspiration for the Beatles song 'Sun King'.
Simon Posthuma: co-founder of 'The Fool', the small group of artists who designed the clothes for the Beatles (and many others) in the Sgt Pepper era, decorated the Apple Store, George Harrison's house, Lennon's Rolls Royce and McCartney's piano. The name the Fool inspired McCartney to write Fool on the Hill.
Spencer Davis: Leader of British band that scored with the Steve Winwood-sung “Gimme Some Lovin'” and “I’m a Man”. He befriended the Beatles and made a cameo appearance in The Beatles’ “Magical Mystery Tour” film.” He played Norwegian Wood in memory of his friend Lennon.
Terry Doran. Doran first met the Beatles in Liverpool, through Epstein, and sold the band their first car, as well as the van in which they travelled to gigs around the North of England. He went on to work at Apple. He is often cited as the inspiration behind the line "Meeting a man from the motor trade" in the Beatles' 1967 song "She's Leaving Home".
Ivry Gitlis. Israeli classical violinist who played with Yoko Ono on The Rolling Stones Rock ‘n’ Roll Circus.
Astrid Kirchherr. Photographer known for early Beatles images.
Little Richard. Rock n’ roll pioneer whose influence spanned generations. The Beatles covered many of his songs.
Chad Stuart. Half of the British Invasion-era duo Chad and Jeremy: scored a hit with the McCartney composition From a Window.
Sean Connery. Bond; James Bond.
Louis van Dijk. Dutch pianist. In 1970 he recorded 'Louis van Dyke plays Lennon-McCartney' in one day on the church organ of the Reformed Church in Loenen. Listen on Spotify.
Tom Mulder: Dutch radio show host (Veronica, TROS, Radio 10 Gold) of long running documentary series about the Beatles, such as Poster and the Beatles Story.
