The Beatles Unravelled #58 - Howie Casey, Wings and so much more

Подробнее о видео

Howie Casey and the Seniors were one of the top Liverpool groups in the pre-Beatles era.
They were the first Liverpool group to release a single and album, nine months before the Beatles' first UK single, Love Me Do.
When Paul McCartney formed Wings, it wasn't long before Howie was playing sax on the albums and touring with the band.
Not mentioned in the show (sadly not enough time) but Howie Casey also features in the movie version of Pete Townshend's rock opera, Tommy.
And yes... that is Freddy Starr in the white shirt!
