Did The King really meet The Fab 4?

John Medd's picture

On the Podcast before last it came out that one of The Word's scribes had a photo of himself taken with The Polyphonic Spree; to which, I think, Hepworth saw his Spree and raised a Springsteen: ouch! Well that got me to thinking about my 'hand'...all I can come up with is Rodney Bewes, Wreckless Eric, Phill Jupitus and Gerry Laffy. (I think I'd have to fold). But what if I'd been in a room with Elvis Presley and The Beatles? If the legend is correct, Elvis invited the lads to his drum on 27 August '65. If they did meet why is there no photographic evidence of this momentous occasion? Surely someone thought to bring the instamatic? Was EP really there that night? The Colonel was, that much we do know. Discuss.

There is a photo of them

There is a photo of them taken as the Beatles left and shows them waving to Elvis as they get in the car. Only two journalists were allowed to attend and no photos were taken during the meeting which John said afterwards was "a load of rubbish".

And of course there is the

memorable part of the Beatles Anthology DVD where each Beatle has a different memory of what exactly happened when they did meet.
