Frequent commenter LeighAnn pointed me to this great photo which Ringo put up on his Instagram (@ringostarrmusic) in remembrance of the late, great Gerry Marsden.

“3..2..1..JUMP!”
Thanks for posting Michael!
This is another rare instagram photo I found of John that gives me Russell partying and taking acid with high school students in Almost Famous vibes lol

Great pic! It reminds me of the kind of photo you would find on the ‘Meet the Beatles for Real’ site which has an array of snapshots of the Fabs taken with/by fans.
Oh I love this!
I have a close friend who saw all that Penny Lane stuff in action in the early 70s.
That’s the thing I love about Beatle instagrammers- a lot of who are young too- they find so many rare hidden gems. I don’t know where they find them but I love seeing the rare or candid photos of the Beatles and co that aren’t the images seen a hundred times before because they usually make me feel like I’ve learnt something about them I didn’t know before. Maybe it’s because I’m a visual person I don’t know.
I like this one of the boys playing pool (including a shirtless Paul) it looks like maybe Florida:

Love that!
George and Pattie really were a very pretty couple- they remind me of a prototype Johnny Depp and Kate Moss:
