ONE STEP BACK - PHOTO MYSTERY "Advertising the new "US Albums" boxed set, the photo of the Beatles in front of the stars and stripes flag is seen everywhere, these days. Here's one description we found: "The Beatles pose with an American flag in a Paris photo studio prior to their first visit to the United States in January 1964". Or is it? Other sources say that the photo was taken in April 1964 during a photo call promotion ahead of the band's first American tour (in August). We don't know which is the correct description. Do you? And better still, who is the photographer?"
ROLAND LESTOQUOIT responded. "These photos were taken in Paris in 1964 by David Steen (see his book "Heroes and Villains" on Genesis Publications).
The band was appearing at the Paris Olympia during three weeks and they were staying at the George V hotel. Prior to their future visit to the US, David was asked to take promo shots and borrowed the flag from the American Embassy in Paris; The flag was then Army escorted from the Embassy to the hotel for the session. Unfortunately, David later lost the copyright."
