One of the early photographers of the Beatles releases an impressive photo book for fans. simonschuster
It was July 1, 1963 and Terry O’Neill was just one of dozens of staff and freelance photographers who worked for the ultra-competitive “Fleet Street” newspapers in London. But he was also one of—if not the—youngest shutterbugs.So when his editor at theasked him to head over to EMI Studios on Abbey Road to take some shots of a pop group who he felt might have something going on, O’Neill did.
Looking at the photo today, it’s compelling to think what would lay ahead for these four young lads, and how they and their music would affect the world. It’s also one of O’Neill’s most famous of the many, many images he took of the group both together and apart. It’s not surprising that it’s this image which graces the cover ofO’Neill and his paper were on to something for sure. When his session pictures were chosen to appear on the front page, the issue quickly sold out.
O’Neill also captures some other famous faces with the band. Both figures from Beatles history like producer George Martin, publisher Dick James, and wives Pattie Harrison and Cynthia Lennon. There’s also musicians Eric Clapton, Carl Perkins and Dave Edmunds along with showbiz figures like Laurence Olivier, Marlene Dietrich, Twiggy and Raquel Welch.
O’Neill remembers a courier on a motorbike was standing ready at the Marylebone Registry Office where the ceremony took place. The freshly-shot film was given to him, then speeded to a lab for developing so the contact sheets could then be rushed back to Starr and Bach at their reception for their approval or rejection.
