And [...]

Yesterday: The Beatles Once Upon a Time

Tuesday, November 20th, 2007

From WhatGoesOn.com: Most Beatles fans know that the Beatles perfected their craft in Hamburg in 1960, where they met Astrid Kirchherr, a budding photographer who became close friends with the band, eventually becoming engaged to their original bassist, Stu Sutcliffe.
