I tell people I’m into The Beatles and they think I mean it in an “I wanna hold your hand” kinda way or a “come together” kinda way but what they don’t know is that I’m actually tortured by them, like virulently afflicted with their melody and harmony and mythology and queerness

Rare photos
May 23, 1957. The Liverpool band Eric Clayton's Skiffle Band performs. This is the first shot of Ringo playing the drums (far left).
The photo on July 6, 1957 (the day John met Paul), where Lennon sings standing on an open truck, has become a textbook and is found in many books and websites. And this picture, taken a little later in the day, is not well known to many people.
The bassist and an important member of the early line-up of the band was Stuart Sutcliffe, who unfortunately passed away early. In all his short life, only one color shot of him was taken, this one, where he is captured with singer Tony Sheridan. Stewart is on the right.
Most likely, you don't know who it is. Meanwhile, this man turned the history of world music around. This is Kurt Raymond Jones, the same customer who came into the store and asked for the Beatles record My Bonnie, which is why Brian Epstein first heard about the band, began looking for them and eventually turned into a manager. For a long time it was believed that there was no Raymond Jones. Like, it's just a character invented for the convenience of telling a story. However, here he is!
The only shot where you can see drummer Pete Best, who will later be fired, and Ringo Starr, who will take his place, together.
The Beatles are on the verge of fame performing in Liverpool. As you can see, they have someone else's drum kit, left on stage after the previous band.
Have you ever seen John's mother-in-law? Here she is, the mother of his first wife, Cynthia, next to him.
The only picture where Brian Epstein holds a musical instrument in his hands and seems to extract sounds from it.
This is a giant shoe from the movie "Help!", which was needed to shoot a scene where the Floor shrank in size. As the photo shows, this piece of props later became a decoration in the garden near Lennon's house.
The Beatles in a hippie look ride in an ordinary subway car, and no one recognizes them? How can this be? This is 1967, the picture was taken in Greece, where a harsh political regime reigned at that time and the group was not so well known.
one drawing i made in class without reference:)
