Check out these famous Fab Four songs again!
An ultimate tribute show that has been called “awesome” by none other than Beatles producer Sir George Martin.
It is the ambition of most music journalists to interview one of the Beatles and my personal ambition in this respect is to speak to Sir Paul McCartney.
But the closest I’ve come so far is talking to Steve White of the Bootleg Beatles, who takes on the role of Paul in their amazing shows, writes Martin Hutchinson.
The Bootleg Beatles originated in 1980 when the West End musical Beatlemania ended its run.
The four musicians who played the roles of the Fab Four decided to go on tour in tribute to their musical heroes.
This turned out to be a good decision because in the years since their formation, the Bootleg Beatles have become the most important Beatles tribute band in the world.
Even Sir George Martin, legendary Beatles producer, said it was “a great show”.
The show traces the Fab Four’s journey through the Swinging Sixties with every detail forensically observed, from the costumes and instruments to their impeccable renditions of classic hits from all eras of the world’s most famous songbook.
It’s an amazing experience. But it’s not just their sound that’s authentic. They look suspiciously like the Fab Four.
Shows on this tour will include all the hits and more, but will also include a special set dedicated to Let it Be, celebrating the long-awaited release of Peter Jackson Beatles’ critically acclaimed documentary, The Beatles: Get Back.
The set will include a stunningly authentic recreation of the Beatles’ famous 1969 rooftop concert, as well as the iconic anthem The Long And Winding Road and the title track from the Let It Be album.
Steve celebrates ten years in the group.
“It doesn’t seem like ten years, it’s gone so fast.
“I’m the senior member of the group now.”
he show is usually in four parts, each covering a different era with appropriate costumes.
