ON THIS DAY MARCH 12 ...

1963

The group performed at the Granada in Bedford during the Chris Montez and Tommy Roe tour. A portion of the show was captured for the BBC program "Here We Go," though John Lennon was absent due to a cold. Later that afternoon, the BBC aired a previously recorded session of the same show.

1964

In the Studio 3 control room, stereo mixing was conducted for the German-language tracks "Komm, Gib Mir Deine Hand" and "Sie Liebt Dich."

Under the direction of George Martin and Norman Smith, these remixes were prepared specifically for release in the United States and Germany.

1965

Filming for the movie "Help!" concluded in the Bahamas.

Meanwhile, the New York Daily News featured an interview with Brian Epstein, who predicted the band's enduring fame and praised the Rolling Stones.

Additionally, Epstein signed the group The Silkie to a management deal and helped them land a contract with Philips.

1969

The day began with Paul McCartney marrying Linda Eastman at the Marylebone Register Office, followed by a religious blessing at St. John’s Wood and a celebration at the Ritz.

That same morning, Detective Norman Pilcher searched George Harrison’s home. While George and Pattie attended a party, police later arrested them at their "Kinfaus" residence for cannabis possession.

In the studio, mixing sessions occurred for "The Long And Winding Road" and "Let It Be," while "Yellow Submarine" finished its final week on the UK charts.

1971

The single "Power To The People" was released in the UK. Simultaneously, the legal proceedings at the Royal Courts of Justice concluded, resulting in Paul McCartney successfully winning his lawsuit to appoint a receiver for the band's finances and remove Allen Klein's control.

1982

Recording sessions commenced at Startling Studios for the album "Old Wave," with Jim Nipar overseeing the production of the basic tracks.

ABBEY CINEMA, WHERE JOHN AND GEORGE USED TO GO, NOW STANDS ABANDONED

Once a vibrant cultural landmark in Liverpool, the Abbey Cinema holds a special place in the hearts of the thousands who graced its halls during the golden age of British film. Opening its doors in March 1939 with a screening of Joy of Living, the Sir Alfred Ernest Shennan-designed theater was a masterpiece of its time, boasting neon-lit ornate columns, a luxurious bar, and even a goldfish pond in the foyer. It was a favorite haunt for young John Lennon and George Harrison, yet despite its storied past, the Wavertree site has sat empty for over six years.

The building’s journey since closing as a cinema in 1979 has been a turbulent one; it transitioned through various identities—from a bingo and snooker hall to a series of three different supermarkets. Its future faced a major threat when Lidl purchased the site with plans to demolish the structure for a new store. However, fierce local opposition and the building’s eventual Grade II listing in 2021 forced the retailer to pivot. Though Lidl later proposed a restoration project that would preserve the iconic corner rotunda and original aesthetic, they ultimately withdrew the application in early 2023, citing excessive delays, and put the property back on the market.

In a more recent development toward the end of 2024, reports surfaced of squatters occupying the vacant shell, prompting local council members to call for humanitarian support for those inside. Today, despite its architectural significance and deep ties to Beatles history, the Abbey remains a silent, uninhabited monument, waiting for a developer willing to honor its heritage.

RINGO STARR ANNOUNCES NEW ALBUM AND RELEASES NEW SINGLE

Ringo Starr just dropped a brand-new single, "It’s Been Too Long" (featuring Sarah Jarosz and Molly Tuttle), giving us a first taste of his next album, Long Long Road.

The 10-track LP, hitting stores on April 24, was created in partnership with T Bone Burnett and features a killer lineup including St. Vincent and Sheryl Crow. It’s an exciting follow-up to his 2025 country hit Look Up, which gave the Beatle his first #1 on the UK country charts.

He said: "I’m blessed to have T Bone in my life right now and working with me on these records. After we did the last record, which I love listening to, this one just sort of happened. I like to say sometimes I make the right moves, like you can go left or right at any point, and one of the right moves was hooking up with T Bone for Look Up, and now for this one, which I’m calling Long Long Road, because I’ve been on a long long road."

Recorded in Nashville and Los Angeles, the album has a country and Americana sound and features much of the same bandmembers from Look Up.

Ringo added that the album includes musical influences from guitarist Carl Perkins and said: "I recorded two Carl Perkins songs with The Beatles, and both T Bone and I wanted one on this record and he found this beautiful track I’d never heard before, I Don’t See Me In Your Eyes Anymore."

Ringo Starr’s new album ‘Long Long Road’ arrives everywhere April 24th.
