Mike McCartney’s new book of black and white photographs of Liverpool in the vibrant 1960s is a kaleidoscopic personal view of the British Invasion at its beginnings. The book and the Smithsonian exhibition of the same name present an intimate, funny, and dramatic tale of the city that changed music history.
McCartney has worn many hats over the past 40 years, recording nine albums, performing as a solo artist and with the legendary British comedy group The Scaffold. He has played with Reg Dwight (a.k.a. Elton John), Jimi Hendrix, Spenser Davis, Graham Nash, and his brother Paul’s group Wings. He has also published an autobiography as well as children’s and photography books.
In this slide illustrated program complementing the Smithsonian exhibition, McCartney talked about his beloved Liverpool and its lively musical history.
