Here's a billboard that was put up in LA back in '69 to promote Abbey Road. Apparently somone took the Paul is dead rumours to heart and expressed themselves in good ole LA fashion. I wonder what Charlie Manson was up to that night? :wink:

And seated at a console steel guitar. Rickenbacker? Don't know anything about them, but it looks like this has pedals.

Most likely a Sho-Bud. This link has some info on Pete...he's another legend, that one: http://steelguitarmadness.com/index.php ... &Itemid=63

It's hard to believe what horrible taste in art Harrison & Ringo had. :shock:

Not hard to believe...they were working class lads with no real aesthetic training, whose entire life from early adolescence was taken up with an obsession with pop music.

I think I'd include Paul along with them as well, although he seems to have had his mind expanded by his associations with the Ashers.

John's art school experience further developed an early visual flair.

That having been said, George's treatment of his house was a abomination that must've had his Barrister Belt neighbors in a tizzy.
