EDITORS COMMENTS
Captured in this iconic print is the historic press call for Our World, a groundbreaking television event that marked the first live global television link. On June 25,1967, this program was broadcast via satellite to an astounding 24 countries and captivated an estimated audience of 400 million viewers worldwide. The Beatles, commissioned by the BBC, played a pivotal role in this momentous occasion as they were tasked with writing a song for the UK's contribution. In this snapshot taken at Abbey Road Studios on June 24th, we see four legendary figures who shaped music history: Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, and John Lennon. Their presence here signifies not only their immense talent but also their participation in performing 'All You Need Is Love, ' a timeless anthem written by John Lennon and credited to Lennon/McCartney. This very performance would go down in history as one of The Beatles' most memorable moments. As we gaze upon this photograph from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of the swinging sixties when music had the power to unite nations. It serves as a reminder that even amidst turbulent times and global divisions, love remains our universal language.
