Rube’s sunglasses prompt has worked out great with loads of interesting images. It would be nice to have a George Harrison theme going by the 25th, in honor of the 80th anniversary of his birth. apple01

@sigh butterfly 

Thanks that’s interesting.  The photos of the 4 of them on that site reminds me of my point I made in another thread. It seems exceedingly strange that the 4 Beatles could just traipse about from one place to another and relax on the grass with hardly anyone around in 1967, when just a year earlier and for years before that, the entire world was in spastic convulsions of frenzy & hysteria over them.  How could that have possibly subsided to near zero in such a short time?

Now today I find, you have changed your mind

I would speculate that the original screamy teenies from 3-4 years previous were now a little more restrained, having gained a few more years of maturity, just as the music the Beatles were making had likewise grown up a bit over the time frame; and that the younger kids of 1967 were more likely to be screaming for the Monkees.

GEORGE: In fact, The Detroit Sound. JOHN: In fact, yes. GEORGE: In fact, yeah. Tamla-Motown artists are our favorites. The Miracles. JOHN: We like Marvin Gaye. GEORGE: The Impressions PAUL & GEORGE: Mary Wells. GEORGE: The Exciters. RINGO: Chuck Jackson. JOHN: To name but eighty.

Your description would be more plausible with a longer timeline, maybe 10 years; but it just seems too quick for me.

That could be right, but don’t discount the idea of kids who were tweens in 1964 growing into 13-year olds who didn’t necessarily want to listen to the same music that their slightly-older sisters loved a few years back – younger siblings who gotta establish their OWN identity and move onto something newer, maybe something poppier like the Monkees; or conversely something more adventuresome like The Who or Jimi.

(…Incidentally, I enjoyed your anecdote about speaking with Lee Oskar of War, very cool! I love ’70s funk…How did that happen?)

Paul: Yeah well… first of all, we’re bringing out a ‘Stamp Out Detroit’ campaign.
