It was a Hard Day's Night - 49 years ago today

I read today that the soundtrack to the Beatles' film, "A Hard Days Night," was released 49 years ago today.  A couple of summers ago, Sherri and I went on a walking tour with Richard Porter, Beatles expert extraordinaire in London.  We met at the train station where the Beatles began their first day of filming. (Second photo)  Remember the opening scene where the three of the Beatles are running down a street, George falls and takes Ringo with him? The first photo shows the street where it all happened.  I wanted to throw myself down on the side walk but my dear, sweet wife thought that would be kind of dumb.
