August 24 2025, 59 Years Later We Explore Bobby Hebb's work on the Beatles 1966 tour

The Beatles returned to the Shea Stadium in 1966. As George Martin said in Anthology: “Curiously enough the second Shea Stadium concert had about 11,000 seats unsold. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/5W1LsKYV54xW7gd7D5CyfYj/the-beatles-record-breaking-gig-at-the-shea-stadium So it was a pretty unsettling time. And it was against this background that they said, 'Right, we definitely won't do any more. We are going to have a break and then we are going into the studio to make a record.'” The support acts this time round were equally stellar - The Remains, Bobby Hebb, The Cyrkle and The Ronettes. Sadly, the stadium was demolished in 2009 to make way for a car park.
