Looking for a thread for Beatles group interviews, I noticed there wasn’t one similar to the ones we have for individual interviews or for those who knew them. There’s a favourite/funny interview bits thread, and a few scattered interviews, but that’s it.

Until now. This thread is for interviews with two or more of the group at any time.

I’ll leave this post here, in case @Joe and the mods decide to merge other threads with it.

(Could a mod please pin this thread?)

52 years ago John and Paul spent four days in New York publicising the formation of Apple.

52 years ago today, 14 May 1968, the last day of doing the publicity circuit, they started the day giving a press conference at the Americana Hotel. Here are some extracts (sound isn’t great).

They followed that being interviewed by Mitchell Krause for (WNDT) Channel 13 programme Newsfront. It’s a really interesting interview with the discussion taking in their impact on society, the system, the counterculture, racism, and much more. A shame the actual footage seems lost.

And they rounded off, again footage lost and because home-taped sound is variable, with an appearance on the The Tonight Show. Guest hosted by Joe Garagiola, with the actress Tellulah Bankhead also appearing (who makes some “interesting” contributions, not sure she’s entirely sober).

George is utterly brilliant on this, taking time to make his points clearly, John on the other hand seems quite direct yet offish.

Reminds me of John Cleese taking control next to a lost looking Michael Palin when they were defending ‘Life Of Brian’.

John, George and Ringo interviewed by the Australian presenter, Binny Lum in London, 1964. 

There’s a lovely photo of her with them on the day of the interview. Does anyone know the reason why Paul wasn’t there?

The “lost” tapes for the 28 October 1964 interview with Playboy are going up for auction.

The tapes will be auctioned by Merseyside based Omega Auctions on 15 October, with a price-tag starting at £10,000.

Here’s Joe’s write up on the interview: https://www.beatlesbible.com/1…..w-playboy/

For some reason, I was a bit shocked to see that the interview is on cassette tapes so I had to look up the history of cassette tapes. The first home recorders utilizing compact cassette technology were released in the United States in November 1964. So the American journalist who conducted this interview (in October 1964) must have gotten a cassette recorder and tapes in Europe? or Japan? Or were the interview recorded on something else and then transferred to these tapes? So many questions – I am so easily sidetracked.
