GEORGE`S LOCAL CINEMA

George Harrison lived just across the road from
the Abbey along with his  two brothers and sister
in Arnold Grove Wavertree.
For George in his youth it was a cinema he visited
on many occasions. In later years he often spoke
publicly with affection of this his local cinema.
In one television interview he saidgeorge2 he would got to
 the Abbey to watch films
with all the American
Rock & Roll stars in
them. He recalled on
one occasion after a
visit to the Abbey with
John Lennon to watch
Rock around the Clock,
they both could not
help but notice all the
 female attention Bill
Haley & the Comets attracted on the Silver screen.
He joked That was the type of job he wanted to
 have, and as they say in the movies the rest was
 history!
