4 Rocking Cities in England That Will Make You Sing Along
3. Let It Be Liverpool
Oh, Liverpool! The birthplace of The Beatles! Who wouldn’t want to visit this meaningful city? I bet you have at least a couple of the band’s tracks shuffling in your playlist. And this place will give you the opportunity to see where the magic happened.
The British musical quartet and a true lodestar for the hopes and dreams of so many generations worldwide has gathered around, played the first show and recorded the first songs here, in Liverpool. The rest is history – an amazing one.
The city is a place of pilgrimage for those who want to find out more and to experience the atmosphere that inspired John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison. Your first stop should be The Beatles Story, a famous museum in Albert Dock that will introduce you to The Fab Four’s path – from the early times, to the Beatlemania and beyond. Don’t miss the famous Penny Lane and Strawberry Field, either!
Cavern Club is another spot you have to check out – the club where the band had about 300 live shows. You’ll find it easily, on the Mathew Street, right in the city centre. You’ll also want to stop off at 251 Menlove Avenue (Mendips), John Lennon’s childhood home. At 20 Forthlin Road you’ll have the chance to admire a house where Paul McCartney lived for several years.
Enjoy this wonderful trip and try to see of you can spot any Blackbird flying around Here, There and Everywhere. You’ll want to Get Back, I promise you!
