Comments and Reviews

JPGR&B SUBS 10th Sep 2020		With acknowledgement to original contributor Problem Child, I have provided additional information in the notes and additional images.
JPGR&B SUBS 5th Oct 2018		Additional information added about the book (from research on the internet).
TopPopper 23rd Nov 2015		These images (the ones shown here) are all from an occasion which has become known as the "Mad Day Out", when they cruised around London looking for interesting locations to shoot. There are several internet resources - here's possibly the best.
Problem Child 23rd Nov 2015		The Beatles 'Summer of 1968' Book images added. I bought this about 15 years ago (one time I didn't write the date in...) There's no Publisher listed, there's also no Publication date and no Author listed either. As can be seen there is text giving a view of their career and account of 1968 in general. The photos were taken during a break of the 'White Album' sessions on Sunday 28th July. Copyright is by 'Tracks'. As can be seen from photos 2 and 3, these resulted in the shot spread across the inside of the 1962-1966 & 1967-1970 Red and Blue albums, which was taken in a park near Kings Cross St. Pancras, I believe - I do have details but but not to hand. I think this is great collection of photos by the photographers which was an idea to get some new pix of the group. It's only 62 pages with a hand-full of colour shots, but they really show a side to the group which lets you into their world. But the great quality of the informal photos gives the feel of a contemporary group.
