Like an old family photograph, or a treasured gift. Music has the ability, to instantly transport you back in time to the place where you first heard a certain song. Or trigger a special memory, of a first date, or family gathering.
In the first episode of Fixing A Hole, Beatles expert Paul Humbley told the story of how he discovered The Beatles as a 10-year-old and the impact they have had on his life. In Episode 4, we discover how and when he discovered The Beatles albums. From being gifted a couple of original 60s pressings, to making his pocket money stretch by recording albums onto cassette loaned to him by family and friends.
Along the way Paul even admits that for a few weeks in the summer of 1976, the new Wings album, Wings At The Speed Of Sound was more important to him than Sgt. Pepper! Perhaps there is some truth behind the Alan Partridge statement. That Wings were the group The Beatles could have been.
If you’re a Beatles fan, or just love music we’d love to hear from you.
