Revolver is an awesome cover. It’s amazing that these ’60s guys are starting to turn 70 now. Ringo is 68 isn’t he?

history !!
1966 I was working for Shel Talmy & when we went into the recording studio with Manfred Mann I first met Klaus.
how time flys Yesterday I purchased a huge poster collage of the Beatles created by Klaus.
I will always remember you Klaus even if I would not sing on Semi Detached Surburban Mr James I really was shy!
So the framed poster purchased from American Arts of Armand Circle Sarasota will adorn the lounge in our Florida home where we can recall those crazy years of the 60′s
