Liner Notes (January 4)
RIP Tony Calder
Finally, a bit of sad news to report: Tony Calder, the promoter who helped get The Beatles first single “Love Me Do” on the radio in the U.K., has died at the age of 74 due to complications from pneumonia. He worked for Decca Records in the 1960 and would go on to form Immediate Records with Rolling Stones manager Andrew Loog Oldham.
