The Beatles “From Liverpool to Abbey Road”

This lecture will follow in the footsteps of The Beatles as they embark on their historic journey starting from their early days as a cover band in Liverpool and Hamburg, into the excitement of Beatlemania, including concert performances, and films, thru their creative ground breaking studio albums (Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Peppers) to the formation of Apple Corps and finally to their remarkable final recordings at Abbey Road Studios.  Coming full circle, we will explore the highlights of each individual’s post Beatles work.

As a Beatles Scholar and storyteller, Vinnie Bruno, the presenter, embraces the Beatles’ legacy while presenting entertaining, interactive, and informative programs for both the casual listener and hard-core Beatles fans.As a 60s’ Rock Historian, his program list includes historic and musical overviews of over 100 rock and roll musicians and groups, each of whom helped define the 50s, 60s and 70s by creating musical landscapes that captivated a generation and whose influence in popular culture still endures more than five decades later. Mr. Bruno retired as Director of First Year Programs at LaGuardia Community College (City University of New York).  He holds an MPA from Baruch College and, as an adjunct professor for 25 years, taught courses in numerous disciplines including Humanities, Business and Mathematics.  He currently resides in both New Jersey and Arizona.
