Apologies that I have to skip a month.
Unfortunately, we have had a string of sudden deaths within the family over the last couple of months, which has necessitated both a number of trans-Atlantic trips and time to grieve and deal with the bureaucratic aftermath of such sad events.
As a result, I haven’t had the time, or to be honest, the focus, to complete the research I had planned for this month’s Before They Were Beatles newsletter.
All being well, normal service will be resumed next month.
Thanks for your understanding.
