Two Our Of Four Beatles Is Not Too Bad

Anyone out there remember The Beatles? This was decades before Paris, Britney, Lindsay and Tonto! The money shot was either getting pics of Elvis or members of The Beatles post breakup. If you got all of the Beatles together, you could retire on the shot. That was probably about a hundred grand back then. Nothing today, but in the Seventies that 100K could buy you a villa in Bel Air. If you could not get the entire group in one photo, getting a couple together made a tremendous photograph that would sell all over the world. Well, around 1975 we lucked out and got this shot. It was taken in front of On The Rox which is a private nightclub that is on the second floor of The Roxy. That was the Hyde of the Seventies, the only difference was that the stars attending had class and style. We think we had some sort of tip that Ringo was going to be there, but could not believe our eyes when we saw John and Yoko there too. We got the shot as they arrived in the late evening and wanted to stay all night for them to come out, but unfortunately we had High School to attend bright and early the next morning. Can you just imagine having to sit thought Mrs Solomon’s French class at 8am only hours after you had just hosed down one half of the Beatles! Over the years we had offers many times to sell this negative, but as we have always said in the past to young Paparazzos ” never sell your copyright”!
