1 0 A P R I L 1 9 7 0 âI was amazed when I heard theyâd broken up. Youâd read how they didnât like Yoko, they didnât like Linda, how Paul wanted the Beatles to be looked after by his girlfriendâs dad and brother, which surely didnât sound like a good idea to anybody other than him. But I thought theyâd get through it. Theyâd been the Beatles since they were kids. How could they be anything else? Iâd seen them lots in my early teens, living not far from Liverpool. On Saturdays and school holidays, my friends and I would go to Johnâs house on the bus as we had nothing else to do. We only saw him once. You got such little access to pop culture back then. Youâd get your Beatles monthly magazine, Top of the Pops once a week on the TV â but that was it. The idea of seeing your favourite group any minute of any day was unbelievable. I discovered so much music from the Beatles. I wouldnât have liked the blues without them â I was more into John Mayall, Eric Clapton and Cream by 1970. But I still bought every Beatles album and I loved Abbey Road. I couldnât believe they wouldnât be there any more.â - Lillian Adams, Beatles fan, The Guardian, 10th April 2020. đ: #thebeatles #beatles #johnlennon #paulmccartney #georgeharrison #ringostarr #thedreamisover #thebeatlesbreakup #1970 #onthisday #onthisdayinhistory #onthisdayinmusic #50yearsago #onthisdayinbeatleshistory https://www.instagram.com/p/B-y9CXaBS5N/?igshid=raxbe6bd7omp
