A while back, a fan named Jim posted a photo and a little story about how he met Paul in England in 1973. I contacted him and asked if I could share the story and photo on this blog and Jim was kind enough to say that he did not mind. And then I got busy posting things about Australia and A Hard Day's night that I never got around to posting it. So I am focusing now on solo years and I don't want you all to miss out on Jim's amazing story!

I went to England in 1973 for one thing to MEET THE BEATLES. I went to Apple Studio's where 3 Beatles Paul, Ringo and George John was in NYC. taking care of some big business. I was outside of Apple on Savile Row with some Beatles Peatles and guess who comes walking up the street with a beautiful woman named Linda and Sir Paul McCartney holding her hand. GOOSE BUMPS. I could not believe it. I took a double take. Paul and Linda were right there and someone took a picture of three or four fans and me right there on the left. Years later two gentleman named David Bacon and Norman Maslove wrote a book called The Beatles' England. The pic of Paul and Linda with us fans was published and put in the book. If you have it turn to page 26. By the way this is a great book for Beatles Tourist;s that want to see and learn all about the Beatles Land Marks throughout England. Buy one if you haven't already. Oh what great Beatles memories. I am in back of Paul on the left.
