Paul Saw John Standing There

Sixty-seven years ago, we had Sputnik, the start of the second Eisenhower administration, the last "I love Lucy" episode, the first "American Bandstand" on TV, Viet Cong guerrillas attacked a place called South Vietnam, the National Guard was sent to Little Rock, Arkansas, a movie called "Jailhouse Rock" and a number one hit about two kids who fell asleep at the movies, i.e. "Wake up little Susie."

Across the Atlantic, something else happened that no one heard about.  On this day in 1957, Paul McCartney saw John Lennon standing there and they started to travel on the long and winding road. John was 16 and Paul had just turned 15.

According to The Beatles Bible, the meeting went something like this:

#AmericanThinker #TheBeatles #The1960s #Entertainment #Music
