On this day, two Liverpool teenagers, John Lennon and Paul McCartney, met for the first time in a church auditorium. The occasion was the annual Woolton Parish Church Garden Fete, a parade and outdoor fair at which John and his Quarrymen Skiffle Group had been invited to play. Paul was in the crowd and was greatly impressed by John’s stage charisma. After the show, a mutual friend made the introduction in the nearby church auditorium. When Paul pulled out his guitar and started playing some Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent and Little Richard numbers, it was John’s turn to be impressed and two weeks later he invited Paul to join the Quarrymen. It was the start of one of the most fruitful musical partnerships in history.
