IF YOU ARE APPRECIATIVE AND CURIOUS OF THE BEATLES.. ..THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU TO GO...VERY INFORMATIVE ABOUT THE LIVES...ESPECIALLY THE FAB FOUR...JOHN,PAUL,RINGO AND GEORGE. .THOUGH THE ORIGINAL QUARRYMEN,STU SUTCLIF ,PETE BEST ARE ALSO MENTIONED... ..ONE FIRST ENTERS INTO THE BEATLES STORE TO PURCHASE TICKETS...THEN YOU WALK THROUGH A NARROW ENTRANCE TO THE FIRST ROOM..AND ON THE TWO WALLS OF THE WALKWAY IS AN INDEPTH DESCRIPTION OF THE BEATLES.. NEXT I REMEMBER ENTERING WHAT THE STAR BAR WOULD HAVE BEEN LIKE IN HAMBURG..WITH THE SOUNDS OF THEIR PERFORMANCES AND THE ATMOSHERE OF THAT CLUB.....
THERE IS ABBEY ROAD RECORDING EQUIPMENT AND EARLIER INSTRUMENTS THAT THEY USED INCLUDING THE OLD BEATLES SUITS.....THERE IS ALSO A REPLICA OF THE CAVERN WHERE THEY PLAYED DURING LUNCHTIMES AND IN THE EVENINGS ...IN THERE ALSO WAS..A ROOM WITH A LIFE SIZE SGT PEPPERS ALBUM COVER , THEN THE NEXT ROOM I ENTERED I WAS INSDE A YELLOW SUBMARINE. ..I SOON MADE MY WAY TO A ROOM DEDICATED TO JOHN LENNON AND THEN A ROOM DEDICATED TO PAUL McCARTNEY......DELIGHTFUL.. .TO ANY BEATLES FAN...AND THEN I HAD FINISHED THE TOUR AND RETURNED TO THE STORE WHERE I HAD BEGUN AND THERE ONE COULD BUY PLENTY OF T-SHIRTS AND WHAT EVER ELSE THEY HAD FOR SALE!!!! UNFORTUNATELY,CAMERAS WERE NOT ALLOWED IN THE MUSEUM.. I WOULD HAVE TAKEN A LOT OF PICTURES...A LOT !!!!

WHETHER IT IS AT NIGHT OR DURING THE DAY,I FOUND MYSELF SEEKING OUT THE PLACES THE BEATLES AS PEOPLE OF LIVERPOOL WOULD HAVE ROAMED..ALSO GOING ON THE FERRY ACROSS THE MERSEY WAS A TREAT AND A HALF FOR ME.. . THE FERRY HAD PLAYING THAT SONG DONE BY GERRY AND THE PACEMAKERS FROM THE 60'S...VERY COOL FOR ME...ANYWAY...BACK TO THE STREETS OF LIVERPOOL. ..THOSE ARE TONS OF FOOTSTEPS TAKEN BY THE BEATLES MANY MOONS AGO...!!! VERY THRILLING TO ME. ..I WISHED I HAD GONE TO THE OLD CASBAH.. .THE JOHN LENNON AIRPORT...THE EPSTEINS HOUSE.. .BUT FOR THE MOST PART I WENT TO MOST OF THE PLACES I KNEW ABOUT!!!!!!!

 Eleanor Rigby Buried Along
With Her Name by SapineKuu
Nobody came
All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
On the outskirts of Liverpool close to Paul McCartney's childhood home and John Lennon's old school lies St Peter's Church. Walking around the grounds of this traditional parish church one can easily imagine it as the setting for this sad song. Perhaps not such a leap of the imagination as within the overgrown graveyard lies a tombstone bearing her name. Address: St Peter's Church Woolton

 Eleanor Rigby...all the loney
people... by sourbugger
Eleanor Rigby, from the name used in the Beatles song was actually sculptured by the pop singer Tommy Steele.
The plaque next to the monument dedicates it 'To All The Lonely People'
Interestingly, some years ago a grave was found near St Peter's Church in Woolton (where Paul met John) with the name Eleanor Rigby on it. Leave a Comment Address: Stanley streetDirections: Can be found at a right angle to Matthew Street in the Cavern area (town side)

 In the town where I was
born.... by sourbugger
At least it provides good material for public art, and one of the most arresting is the Yellow Submarine ready to visit Pepperland and the music-hating Blue Meanies.
The statue was originally built for the Garden Festival back in the 1980's but is now re-located to an area of open space between the river and the bus station.
Shall I sing it to you now ? Leave a Comment

 Eleanor Rigby by sabsi
Unlike in the Beatles song Eleanor Rigby's staue doesn't pick up any rice and she definitely isn't alive - not even in a dream. But she is lonely! She is made out of bronze and she sits on a bench. Obviously Eleanor is dedicated to "all the lonely people!"
Inside the figure the artist - Tommy Steele - placed several things so that the statue is full of magical properties: An adventure book (for excitement), a page from the bible (for spiritual guidance), a clover leaf (for good luck), a pair of football boots (for action) and a sonnet (for love).

 The Beatles Story by sabsi
There's a Beatles museum in Albert Dock. It looks like a bit of a tourist trap to me but from what it says on their website it might actually be quite nice. Unlike most museums in Liverpool this isn't free but rather pricey so I didn't have a closer look yet. Leave a Comment

 The National Trust tour bus by londonlover
Organized by the National Trust, a tour departs by minibus to both of these homes several times a week (advance booking a must). The custodians of each house, Eric and John, are Beatles fans themselves and lucky enough to actually live in the houses where Paul and John lived until 1963, and where many of their best-known songs were written.
For a true Beatles fan, stepping into these houses and looking at many of the original furnishings is mesmerizing! You can sit right where Paul and John spent hours upon hours writing most of their early hits in Paul's living room. It was fabulous!
Booking in advance is a must--the tour departs Wednesday-Sunday (four per day), and there are only about ten spots on each tour. Leave a Comment
