I remember first hearing the Beatles on the Uncle Macs Saturday radio programme, I was 15 years old, I stopped in my tracks as I heard 'Please Please Me' being belted out on our very old Bakelite radio in the back room of our council house, it changed my life musically forever.
Over the years I bought every record they made, joined the Beatles fan club, bought endless music magazines etc, I now have practically every track stored on my PC, no other band have come close the the Fab Four, and never will.
One abiding memory for me is that with my first pay packet I bought the 'Twist and Shout' EP, I must've played that 100s of times in the first few days, driving my mum and dad crazy.
