In 1964 Dave Lewis discovered music courtesy of the Dave Clark Five. But with the arrival of Thunderbirds on the television and football at the local park, music quickly new took a back seat.

Then in April 1969, The Beatles released the first new recordings from their January 1969 sessions at Twickenham and Savile Row, Get Back / Don’t Let Me Down. This would be the spark that ignited a lifelong passion for music. 

Along the way Dave has spent 35 years in music retail. Become part of the inner sanctum of Led Zeppelin through his Tight But Loose fanzine and since 2009 been a freelance music journalist and author.

Currently in the process of writing his memoirs. Dave joined us for a chat to discuss his love of the music of John, Paul, George and Ringo including his enviable collection of Beatles bootlegs, his 35 and still counting White Albums and what it was about The Beatles Get Back single 56 years ago that started him on this long and winding road in music.
