Meeting up in the studio with Marty Scott, guitar player with world famous Beatles tribute band 'Liverpool Legends'. With support for the band from Sir Paul McCartney and one special gig which led to Marty being hand-picked for the band by Louise Harrison (sister of the late George Harrison), let's just say great talent, luck and timing is all part of this fascinating Beatles tribute band! Marty discusses the beginnings of Liverpool Legends stellar success, including a moment that almost wasn't (the story is in the podcast!), when the band recorded and produced all The Beatles songs for a unique album called "Fab Fan Memories" - which eventually led to a Grammy Award nomination! Along with their performances at Carnegie Hall in New York, The Cavern Club in Liverpool and the famed Abbey Road Studios in London, Marty talks about those oh so special gigs with Denny Laine (WIngs, Moody Blues), Joey Molland (Badfinger), Pete Best and more. Bring your love of the 60's with you and join us!
