My Father was the Promoter of the Denver leg of the Beatles’ ’64 tour

I’ve seen and heard numerous stories about “did it sell out?”, “were oxygen tanks used?” on and on…Well, I was there backstage, and at the age of six, I remember it quite well. Author Chuck Gunderson sets the record straight on almost everything regarding the Denver stop. I’ve read a lot of Beatles books over the years, and this one gets it right – he uses empirical evidence and confirms his sources. No speculation here, just the facts. Each city is a wealth of information about the Beatles and the cities themselves in regards to how they handled the Beatlemania invasion. 

This this is the king of all Beatle books related to touring in the U.S. and Canada.

Leslie Cavendish – On Podcast

The Cutting Edge by Leslie Cavendish
The Cutting Edge by Leslie Cavendish

Garagebandits Podcast

Join our Beatle’s expert Lou Longobardi as he interviews Leslie Cavendish about his career from starting with Vidal Sassoon to styling Jane Asher and his introduction to Paul McCartney.  Later, going on the Magical Mystery tour and being set up by Apple Corps.

The Beatles’ hair changed the world. As their increasingly wild, untamed manes grew, to the horror of parents everywhere, they set off a cultural revolution as the most tangible symbol of the Sixties’ psychedelic dream of peace, love and playful rebellion. In the midst of this epochal change was Leslie Cavendish, hairdresser to the Beatles and some of the greatest stars of the music and entertainment industry.

But just how did a fifteen-year-old Jewish school dropout from an undistinguished North London suburb, with no particular artistic talent or show­business connections, end up literally at the cutting edge of Sixties’ fashion in just four years? His story – honest, always entertaining and inspiring – parallels the meteoric rise of the Beatles themselves, and is no less astounding.
