There are those moments in time where there is a confluence of greatness and humility. Such is the case of The Beatles, who were four lads from Liverpool, England, who went out and conquered the world. Most everyone, even younger people, have heard of the Beatles and know something about them, but many do not know about their humble beginnings.
These videos will give you some idea about how they started out and got their first contract, the way they were still perceived by Mick Jagger (in 1988), and Mick is someone who knows something about fame and performing and rock and roll. Mick's gratitude for The Beatles' help early in his career is wonderful to hear.
So sit back and enjoy these videos. It is also a bonus to hear Yoko Ono speak on John's behalf and to also hear from John's young sons Julian and Sean. The Beatles certainly deserved this honor, and it just is painful to remember the reason why John Lennon is not there to accept the award.
Enjoy the videos.
