Hello Sam! Is it summer yet? Bring it on!

Mr. Leach,

I just wanted to thank you for your support of the petition to have Pete Best added to his rightful place behind the drum kit in the proposed Hamburg Beatles statue. Pete Best WAS the drummer for the Beatles in Hamburg and to place Ringo there would be an untruthful depiction of the Hamburg Days.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth MacDonald

Great site

Sam, I was reading a post from Jan. 18th about Allan Clayson's BORING writing style RE: his Ringo book. I, too, couldn't take too much of it before putting it down! HOWEVER, your book was a smooth, flowing read that I devoured within days. You got the knack!

Hello Sam and still a great site to return to,one can always find something new to read,execellent site as always.

I hopeall is well ,I was just thinking about you and Alf and wish you the best maybe this year we can do some businessI was reading over your manuscript that you gave me before the Rocking City came out ,and I must say you are a wonderful writer, I just was reading the Allan Clayson book on Ringo and could not believe how bad and boring he writes I could only handle a few pages . All the best Jack

Sam,yes please tell him Ide be honored to do backing vocals with him.Thank him for the publishing deal. Love Vinny

Hello! I look forward to hearing from you soon. I hope you had a blessed birthday and many more. Please remember as long as you live that a vast number of your fans appreciate the knowledge you have shared about The Beatles. Moreover, we appreciate YOU because you are a humble man, freely offering yourself to be photographed with everyday people. It really gives us pride in showing those pictures and telling our children and grand-children that we have met and become friends with the man who originally promoted The Beatles. It's like we've become a part of history along with you. I believe flowers should be given when one's alive and these words are my flowers to you. I also want to thank you for including my website on your links page and your efforts in getting my son's and my musical work out to the public. Thank you my dear friend.

You can sign your name on this site : http://www.ipetitions.com/campaigns/Hamburg_Beatles_Statue/
Hope you dont mind sending this message on your site Sam, but i guess that you agree with me if I say:The history should be told just like it was and nothing else.

Mike

We, the undersigned, applaud Hamburg's commemoration of its undeniable part in the Beatles' formative years, but we feel that any sculpture of the band would be incomplete without the inclusion of Beatle drummer Pete Best. Mr. Best was their drummer beginning with the very first show they played at the Indra club. It was more than two years later that Ringo Starr joined and he only played with them in Hamburg during the very last series of shows at the Star Club.

Pete Best's vital involvement in the Beatles' early years is often obscured by the enormous fame the band achieved after he had left. But he was most certainly the drummer of record during the overwhelming majority of time the band spent in Hamburg.

You have seen fit to include Stuart Sutcliffe in the sculpture, yet Mr. Sutcliffe left the band more than a year before Mr. Best. We strongly believe that any sculpture of the Beatles should include all of them, in order to best represent the complete story.

Thank you.

Hi there Sam

I am a friend of Ellissay's and she told me about your homepage. Very nice actually! Will come more often to read the Beatledotes! Didn't know you organised that John Lennon tribute in 1980! I was one of the thousands in the crowds!

Enjoyed reading your memories of your organization and celebration of John Lennon's life with Liverpool's Tribute to John... but especially enjoyed 'hearing' you tell the story back last summer. Well, summer is CERTAINLY GONE from the Chicagoland area for now! Am currently visiting in Albuquerque, New Mexico where the folks here are waiting for the return of American English next summer.

ENJOY your upcoming 'special' day and the 'Christmas Season' as well!

Keeping you in my thoughts...

LUV, SHARON
