Join us for this unforgettable journey and discover why Liverpool is unlike any other city in the world!
60 years ago six young men would regularly take the bus into Liverpool City Centre. Once there they would visit the pubs, clubs, record and music stores, to listen or play music. They dreamed of making it big in Liverpool, or if that was way too ambitious perhaps, maybe at least attract the attention of the local girls.
This walking tour revisits the Liverpool journeys of these six members of the early Beatles.
We visit all the statues and memorials in the city centre that recognise both their towering achievements and extraordinary talents.
We also explore what remains of their Liverpool "there are places I remember" thankfully there is still a lot that remains to see along the way.
I will give you my own personal take on how I see the forces in the music world, and society in post war Liverpool, combine to give birth to a beat scene that would emerge on to the world stage, to change the music business forever and give joy to millions of people.
