“Meet The Beatles” at auction.
Lot 281
“Meet the Beatles!” album, signed by all 4 members
Sign In to see what this sold for
“Meet the Beatles! The First Album by England’s Phenomenal Pop Combo” record album autographed by all 4 group members – John Lennon, George Harrison, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr. This signed album was given to the New York physician Dr. Jules Gordon during the period in which he treated George Harrison for a sore throat at the time of the Beatles American television debut on the Ed Sullivan Show in February 1964. Thomas Buckley noted in the New York Times on Feb. 8, 1964: “Mr. Harrison, who is known as the quiet Beatle, awoke yesterday with a sore throat. He was treated by Dr. Jules Gordon, used a vaporizer and rejoined his colleagues at the studio late in the afternoon. ‘I should be perfect for tomorrow,’ he said.” (see attached Feb. 8, 1964 New York Times article). According to George Harrison’s sister, Louise Caldwell, Harrison’s health was more serious than reported. In The Beatles Off The Record by Keith Badman, Caldwell recalled: “The doctor said he couldn’t do the Ed Sullivan Show because he had a temperature of 104. But they pumped him with everything. He was thinking about getting a nurse to administer the medicine, every hour on the hour. Then the doctor suddenly realized that I was there and was his sister and he said to me, ‘Would you see to it? It’s probably just as well that you’re here because I don’t think there’s a single female in the city that isn’t crazy about the Beatles! You’re probably the only one who could function around him normally.’” Dr. Gordon was called from his fourth-floor office to the Presidential Suites on the 12th floor where the Beatles were staying. Dr. Jules Gordon was the house doctor at the Plaza Hotel from 1942 until 1985. Original album and album cover. Very good condition, 1 1/4″ split to bottom spine edge. 12-1/4″ H x 12-1/4″ W. Provenance – direct descendant of Dr. Jules Gordon. Dr. Gordon gave this album to the direct descendant in 1964. Winning bidder will be given an affidavit of authentication from the descendant.

Lafayette, must have been a real treat to meet Karin and Linford at the Pavilion in Cinci.
I don’t think this outstanding video has been posted before, but John Patrick of your favorite station WNKU presents Over The Rhine live in studio from a few years back.
Song is “I’m on a Roll”http://www.youtube.com/user/WNKU#p/u/74/ea5gv30SgwU

This might be called the Second Show of 2012.
February 5-12, 2012
Lu and Tom sail out of Miami on the Cayamo Cruise ( A Journey Through Song )
Sorry, all you sailors SOLD OUT.
What an outstanding list of artists.
Another Williams is on the guest list-Holly.
Just imagine Lu and Holly doing a duet out on the ship’s deck of one of Hank Sr’s unpublished songs such as “I’m Happy I Found You” on the new compilation album coming out when ?

A blog from last night at the Wellmont.
Here’s the quote at the end of the article.
“In my next life, when I come back as a rock star, I’m gonna be Lucinda Williams. And I’m gonna sing duets with Amos Lee. Then, I will truly be blessed.”

Yeah, a baker’s dozen is a bit on the light side, so let’s hope Montclair (curfew-less?) and Beacon (Union-compliant, to a tee) will yield a more bountiful crop. Lafayette, you called “Little Angel, Little Brother,” but either one gig early or one too late, forgot which. Was “Blessed” solo for the duration, as lwj implies (haven’t looked on YouTube)? At any rate, the tour marches on. . . .
stoger, ‘Blessed” solo only for the first minute now that I’ve watched all the videos.

I somehow missed your post, lwj, about the HB at Southgate House. I would love to see them at Canal Street Tavern but am unavailable that night so SH it is! They are also doing a secret show (or it’s being billed as such) for anyone pledging a paperless donation to WNKU during their pledge drive. On a side note, a $240 donation secured tickets to Amos & Lu’s show at PNC on July 15. They have been really pushing the show with shout outs as well.
Any info on the “secret show” Lafayette?
Also, for those who live in Ohio, the first ever Ohio Film and Music Festival will take place Oct. 6-9, 2011 in Columbus.
The Heartless Bastards are confirmed.

P.S. For the first time during the Amos Lee co-bills, Lu made a guest appearance during Amos’ set to sing with him on “Clear Blue Eyes”. As Lu was being introduced, I do believe I heard a distinct “THUMP” echoing across the pavilion as Lafayette passed out in excitement / “stroking-ness”… 😉
A thump, thud, heart skipped a beat, and yes….I was “stroking!”
Just returned from the cottage and it would appear Lafayette that, despite a thump and thud you managed to upload this fine video.

Fantastic show tonight at Interlochen! The acoustics were phenomenal, And allowed us to hear sweat lifts in L’s voice that I’ve never detected before. Talented band and an amazing venue. So blessed to have attended. Thanks, all!
We were there too and we were very disapointed as to how short Lucindas show was! She only played for about 45 minutes and after having to sit through Amos Lee–we were just so disapointed!
Leaving Interlochen show. BEST SHOW EVER!!!
Great show, bummer about the curfew cutting you off. Seemed you were just getting warmed up for another 30 minutes or so of greatness. Thanks for making the trip to northern Michigan!
lwjHere’s a pic of Amos on stage.
What a great looking venue.[attachment=0:252qgndo]Amos on stage Interlochen, MI.jpg[/attachment:252qgndo]lwj
