NEW EXCLUSIVE RELEASE!

Before they were the Beatles, the Fab Four went through numerous name changes. A very little known fact is that the first time the band ever referred to themselves as The Beatles, the band spelled it “Beatals.” A copy of a historic letter written by original fifth Beatle Stuart Sutcliffe in March 1960 is now available as part of a new limited edition fine art reproduction entitled “Meet the Beatals.” “Meet the Beatals” is a watercolor painting (circa 1957 – 1960) featuring the early Beatles in their “Skiffle” days taken from Stuart Sutcliffe’s personal sketchbook. The historic letter is superimposed over the bottom of the painting. In the letter from late March 1960, Sutcliffe who refers to himself as the manager of the band, writes, “This is a promising group of young musicians who play music for all tastes, preferably rock and roll.” Sutcliffe begins to refer to the band as the Quarrymen, then crosses it out and writes “The Beatals” – the first time the band ever called themselves by that name! The artwork is hand signed by Pauline Sutcliffe, who is executor of the Stuart Sutcliffe estate and Stuart’s sister. This is the first limited edition art piece ever released by the Sutcliffe estate and only 175 numbered and signed copies will be produced.

Quinn Sullivan just turned eight. He appeared on the Ellen show jamming on Twist & Shout when he was six. A few weeks ago, he performed with Buddy Guy on stage. He plays in bands with adults....in short (pardon the pun), he's a prodigy! Quinn performed a set of Beatles songs in his Sgt. Pepper outfit at the recent Ringo Starr Fine Art Show in Harvard Square, Cambride, MA. Keep an eye on this kid.....you'll be buying his CDs some day!

The Rock Art Show just finished up a great weekend in Asheville, NC at the Haywood Park Hotel with WOXL Radio. Great People! We had a fantastic time. While we were in town, we saw the coolest radio station vehicle in the world....WOXL converted a PT Cruiser into the Yellow Submarine. Awesome.

Elvis Presley makes a special appearance on the Boardwalk outside of the Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City for our Shark 103.7 Classic Rock Art Show.
