Description: A very rare opportunity to own a matt finish 10x8 inches photo hand signed by John Lennon’s Quarrymen members Rod Davis, Len Garry, Colin Hanton and the only living original founder member of the band Bill Smith. This has also been signed by former Beatle bassist, the late Chas Newby. On 6th July 1957, The Quarrymen played with John Lennon at the St. Peter's Church Rose Queen garden fête in Woolton. Rod Davis, Len Garry and Colin Hanton were all present performing alongside John. This day became known as one of the most important days in music history as it was this very day that John Lennon met Paul McCartney and that is when the greatest songwriting partnership in music history was formed! When the Beatles returned from West Germany for the first time, they were in need of a bass guitarist. Pete Best suggested Chas Newby. He was briefly the bassist for the Beatles for several gigs in December 1960, while Stuart Sutcliffe was still in Hamburg focusing on his art career. John Lennon asked him to go to West Germany for the Beatles' second trip, but Newby chose to return to university. After Lennon and George Harrison both declined to switch to bass guitar, Paul McCartney, who previously played guitar and piano, reluctantly became the band's bass player. Taken by Paul’s brother Mike McCartney and considered to be the very first colour photo of ‘The Beatles’ This photo features a young ‘Quarrymen’ group consisting of John, Paul and George rehearsing in George’s living room 1958. Great piece of Beatles history where it all began signed by the legendary members of John Lennon’s first band and a former Beatles bassist before Paul McCartney!
