Il y a quelques jours de cela, Rod Davis, ex-membres des Quarry Men (voir le dossier Spécial de David dans Yellow-sub.net) donnait une interview à la presse britannique, que nous vous livrons en version originale : un entretien passionnant dans lequel Rod revient sur sa rencontre avec Paul McCartney, John Lennon, et les premières heures de gloire du groupe de Liverpool : -How did you meet John Lennon for the first time I met John when I was about four or five years old – I lived in Woolton and if you were church of England you would go to St Peter’s Sunday School. In the same class was Pete Shotton, Nigel Whalley, Ivan Vaughan, Geoff Rhind – about 15 or 20 kids. John and Shotton were always the ones chewing gum or doing something -They were the bad boys from the beginning? Yes they were pushing the limits right from the word go.

Le magazine américain « Acoustic Guitar » consacrera dans son numéro 122 de Février 2003, un large article au « Quiet Beatle », George harrison. Nous vous livrons ci-après un fragment de cet article : To the casual Beatles fan, George Harrison was the unassuming sideman, the sitar-playing spiritualist and competent composer whose occasional song contributions (« Something, » « Here Comes the Sun ») made a ripple or two in the stream of Lennon-McCartney classics. Peel back another layer?as Beatles archaeologists are wont to do?and there exists a far more intriguing portrait of the man and his music, one that is significantly more complex and not nearly as well documented. In the years since the Beatles’ 1970 breakup, an array of bootlegged recordings?as well as one officially sanctioned collection, Anthology?have provided fans with a glimpse inside the world of EMI’s No.

Nous vous publions il y a quelques jours dans ces colonnes une photos réalisée par Mary McCartney, fille de Paul, prise pour les besoins d’une campagne de la PETA. Cette photo semble avoir fait réagir bien du monde, poussant la jeune femme à établir un communiqué de presse, publié ce jour dans le « London’s Evening Standard », article intitulé : « Why Stella and I won’t wear fur », que nous vous livrons ci-après. « I’m vegetarian, I don’t wear leather and I wouldn’t dream of wearing fur, so when Peta (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) asked me to shoot the poster for their new campaign, I jumped at the opportunity. (see November 12) Over the past year or so, it has suddenly become fashionable to wear fur again – it’s back on the catwalks, worn to film premieres by the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Halle Berry, and to parties by Kate Moss and Sophie Dahl.
