  4. Tapes Of Beatles Talking About Elvis Are Sold

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">A series of audio taped interviews with The Beatles, recorded the night after they met Elvis Presley for the first time, were recently sold at auction for $55,000. The recordings were made by DJ Jerry G. Bishop during the band&rsquo;s 1965 summer tour and up until now were in the hands of an LA record executive. Discussing Elvis&rsquo; music in the 60s, Paul McCartney said, &ldquo;Well, of course, since when I was 16, I've loved his records. We used to do a lot of his songs until we started doing our own &hellip; but I don't like the new stuff half as much &ndash; we told him that last night.&rdquo; Added John Lennon, &ldquo;We were asking him about just making movies, and not making any [personal] appearances. I think he enjoys making movies so much ... We couldn't stand not doing personal appearances &ndash; we get bored quickly." When asked if the two artists would ever do something together Lennon didn&rsquo;t seem enthusiastic, saying, &ldquo;None of us have ever liked those albums where they put two people together. I&rsquo;d hate an album like that.&rdquo;&nbsp; <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWSfqQcJ9tE">Check out this video.</a></span>
