Three days after the birth of Julian Lennon, John finally made it to Sefton Hospital in Liverpool to visit his wife, Cynthia.
John had been on tour and although he called frequently, he only managed to go back to Liverpool on Thursday 11 April 1963
When he saw his son for the first time, he had tears in his eyes, and according to Cynthia he spoke the famous words :"Who's going to be a famous rocker like his dad, then?"
Because John was on the verge of becoming world-famous (and already quite famous in Liverpool) many patients came to look at him during his short visit. He even had to sign some autographs to get out of the hospital.
When Sgt. Peppers was released in 1967, the album started with the magical words "it was 20 year ago today". Well now we are 50 years later and the Beatles are still going strong on the radio, television, and every now and then even in the charts. So welcome to "It was 50 years ago today" where we will publish every day a news item about what happened that day in Beatles History...only 50 years later!
