EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant print captured by the Daily Herald from Memory Lane Prints, we see The Beatles gathered together during their stay in Bangor, Wales. They had come to participate in a transformative 10-day conference on Transcendental Meditation led by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Little did they know that their time here would be marked by both enlightenment and tragedy. Staying at the dormitories of Dyfrdwy within the Hugh Owen Building of Bangor University, the Fab Four immersed themselves in spiritual exploration. However, on that fateful Sunday of August 27th, just two days after their arrival, devastating news reached them – their beloved manager Brian Epstein had passed away. As word spread through the British press about Epstein's death, reporters began gathering around the college entrance where The Beatles were residing. Overwhelmed with grief and shock, John Lennon, Ringo Starr, and George Harrison briefly spoke to journalists before departing from Wales.
