Thanks to Daniel for the camerawork at Sainte Pierre.
this guy is a blowhard .. Beatles already knew about pot back in Hamburg days ...
ua-cam.com/video/UM7iL0HCcM0/v-deo.html I can accept the fact that you think I'm a blowhard but the above link is proof that I'm not just making it up. Have a great day!
Potty mouth. They knew about it but never tried it until Dylan. Hamburg was all pills. Go take a long cold shower.
No they were into Bennies in Hamburg.
@@RockessentialTim right on!
It is very well documented that Dylan turned them into pot in 1964 and yes, they ate speed-pills in Hamburg, 12 hour shifts, between 1960-1962, playing over 280 shows.
And a fairly rockin' guitar wall as well...
Love these Rock Walks. Always informative and insightful.
NICE!
Great vlog i love the old Hollywood Hill stories.
Hey Tim , Your friend sure knows his musical history !! Nice Video ...
He isn't a player but I don't know anyone that loves music more than him.
Wow the Elvis images rock! I am not materialistic but have always been in awe, as mentioned in this video, that those gorgeous, massive, very private properties in Bel Air, even exist!! Thank you for another great episode!!!!!
Thanks much. I might have to devote an episode to Elvis. Hmmm....
Excellent as always, good job
Thanks, man.
I look forward to all of your rock videos. They can’t possibly be easy to do but you do look like you enjoy making them. Thank you so much for your time and efforts
Yes thank you soooooooo much, I am having a great time checking out the Rock Walks and everything! Also really appreciate the pieces of history with which I wasn't already familiar!!
Love these rock history hike videos, looking forward to P2.
Part #2! Part #2!
Thanks, Karl. Gonna start next week.
Two! Two!
I met Peter Fonda some years ago and found him cool and most approachable. Got his autograph and photo with yours truly. Rog. Pacific sunset records.
You guys crack me up. Your conversation together is like a pair of happy kids doing the stuff they like. It’s great!!
Thanks. Randy is probably the funniest person I know!
Awesome viceo! Gorgeous area
Thanks for watching!
You're the gift that keeps on giving Tim..keep the content coming my friend👌
Many thanks!
Very interesting locations with a lot of music history. I enjoyed the video
Next Friday I will be in LA - let's do the Buffalo Springfield haunts
G`day Tim from Melbourne Australia! Great to see you back out again...top notch..love your channel and the music`s awesome! Look forward to more videos mate!
Thank you! Its nice to know someone listens to the music. I work harder on that than the film.
I love this channel and especially the rock walks!!! Can't believe you got that guy in the Beatles house to film you. Just awesome. Please it keep it going!!! // Happy 4th from a Swedish fan!!!
Thanks! I think if you are friendly people pick up on your vibe and give it back. Rock on Sweden!
Ah, yes! This is great. I've been waiting for this episode for a while. So cool.
This tyrant brit loves this. Hahaha. Brilliant as always. Happy 4th of July weekend from Liverpool UK. 🇬🇧
Thanks my man. Thinking of you guys this weekend when we go see some fireworks.
@@RockessentialTim fireworks, picnics, parades, barbecues, baseball games. Hope you all enjoy it. Families freedom and fresh air is what it's all about. Don't forget to have a couple of cool lagers. Enjoy. 👍😊🇬🇧
@@haydndavies2248 Greetings from our "midlands" -- the Midwest, Chicago to be exact.
@@KarlKrogmann hi mate. Have a great holiday weekend. Only been the west coast a few times and nevada on road trips. Love driving round california. Did end up in tijuana once when on a road trip (that was an eye opener haha) never been to Chicago though and its meant to be full of history. Stay well. 👍🇬🇧
Love your content. The rock walks are fantastic. Really cool to hear about all the connections and see the locations. LA in the 60s and 70s was certainly one of the places to be.
Love these rock legend hikes! I had no idea the Beetles had an LA history! Thank you 👏🏻👏🏻❤️
Happy 4th of July!🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸❤️
Beetles ???were they a Beatles tribute band ?
Love your positive vibes and vids, Tim!
Right on, thanks!
Just fantastic as ever..Cheers from the Isle of Wight
Isle of Wight home to a great concert in 1970. 600,000 people to see The Who, Jethro Tull, The Moody Blues, The Doors all in their prime. As well as other bands.
Another great one!
Thanks, Drew!
Thanks Tim ! Another good one ! Peace, Rudy
that was great - one of my favorites so far - amazing views, hilarious impersonations, cool storytelling, and you had me laughing - we've all probably read about these places, but i've never seen the homes before - great content, take care guys
Aw shucks. Thanks and you take care too.
@@RockessentialTim the best part of this video is the way you two look like a pair of naughty school boys who are about to get caught at any minute!
These are so cool. I geek out everytime. I live in Austin, everytime my company goes to trade shows and such I drag everyone on rock history tours. Last one was sf to the dead house
Everyone should visit the Haight at least once, right?
I have walked up to the house in Bel Air from the Bel Air Gates. Been by the others. Was making a Beatles/Rock tour before Northridge threw me 400 miles. Far Out
This was a really good one! Really enjoyed it!!
Great interesting stuff as always. Glad you did not get arrested. :)
I love the content! the history and sight seeing. Thanks for sharing.
It is so my pleasure to make them! Thank you.
Great channel!
Thanks!
You guys are always insightful with a twist of humour to add.Looking forward to part two as always.
“she Said” is Howard Stern’s favorite Beetles song. He said he can hardly listen to it, as it always makes him sad and cry. He told Paul McCartney this when he interviewed him.
That is so cool!
Love the videos, keep 'em coming!
Right on. Thank you!
Amazing.
Dylan thought the lyrics in "IWanna Hold your Hand" sang I Get high, John Embarrasingly replied "No, I Can't Hide.
He was one of the rare guys who's advice the Beatles listened to.
I just love your rock videos! Please do more. Also, Micky Dolenz and Alice Cooper were part of the group that partied with Lennon during his lost weekend.
Thank you so much! We are working on one now so stay tuned.
Wow! So interesting! Thanks! Had no idea Peter Fonda was the inspiration for “She Said She Said”!
I've read a bit about him and he was quite the scenester in the 60's.
@@RockessentialTim I met Peter Fonda a few years back and he signed my book of his film dirty Mary crazy Larry. We exchanged a few words and he said he'd had a blast making that film. Rog. Pacific sunset records.
@@rogbrown1458 I always found him extremely likable and cool, but then again I never dropped acid with him.
Met him once. A very nice man. He probably was nervous meeting the Beatles and tripping no less.
Hey Tim. Great video. My girlfriend and I watched it the other night whilst having a beer in the garden. Looking forward to seeing the next one. Plus it got us even more excited about our trip. Hoping to book flights in a couple of weeks. 👍👍
Let me know when you book. Leave me the info here and i'll erase it after I check.
@@RockessentialTim will do Tim. Nice one 👍👍
those gates at 4:15 are spectacular !
It's a pity some of those old mansion were torn down and replaced with crappy stick built houses.
There's just no way to create legal e with wood framing . drywall and s stucco exterior . the old stone /brick mansions had an air of royalty to them .
apologies for reminiscing on your videos but they evoke such great memories for me that i'm completed to trip on nostalgia . thanks for doing all these vids . great stuff ! !
I think its fitting that on this Independence Day weekend we feature our former countrymen and tyrants, The Brits. Enjoy it and have a happy and healthy 4th!
could you enable English subtitles for your videos ?
Thanks Tim ! Well Done ... keeep them coming ...!
Right on, thanks!
Tim, your videos are addictive and are going to be the cause of a "lost afternoon" today as I binge watch a bunch...instead of completing the pile of paperwork I'm currently looking at on my desk! 🤣 I love all the historical details you provide about the various locations and the people involved. I'd love to do a walking tour with you if I make it out to the LA area again.
Let me know. btw: what part of the world are you from?
@@RockessentialTim Hi Tim, I'm from Massachusetts. I've been to LA 3 times for a conference, but I've limited touring of the area.
Tim, you are a wealth of info. You should write a book! Amazing adventures. Maybe someday somehow I will share my all day hang with George and Olivia on Maui.
Is you on Maui?
Such a cool video!
Right on, thanks!
Same trip they detoured from Miami because of a storm and stayed in Key West at the hotel I play at. The Key Wester.
Interesting!
Randy's got same dash cam i have lol......as usual very cool video!
I got to hang out with him yesterday. Went on a hike with our dogs. Probably the funniest guy I know.
A tour van came by while we were filming and we could hear the driver narrating at the St. Pierre house. His facts were fairly out of whack and I told him so. He nodded politely and then flipped me off as he drove away. Hysterical!
We're kindred spirits, Tim. Revolver is my favorite Beatles record as well. And the Byrds of course. Squire Mini P bass (red) hanging on the wall? 👍
Revolver and Rubber Soul. Its a P Bass but its a real one. The other is a Music Man Sterling 5 string.
I used to have a lap dobro but I got rid of it cuz I was really pathetic on that thing.
@@RockessentialTim Ah...In the pic it looked a bit smaller than an actual P bass. I recognized the Sterling immediately though.
@@RockessentialTim I actually made a little money playing pedal steel. I'm mostly playing bass these days though, studying with a great teacher who's teaching me how to walk the jazz blues changes. I never figured I'd be a jazz guy! So it goes.
cool vid bro!
Thank you!
It's such a shame that Zsa Zsa's house was getting "remodelled". Much prefer it in it's original form. Great video and Rubber Soul is my favourite Beatles album.
My fave too!
Love the video.
A little update the paul getting stoned story ends the next day when Mal evans gave Paul the note he made of Paul’s chatting whilst high..on the note it said “ There are seven levels “ ……..
Also there are a couple of photos of the Beatles in Elvis compound leaving the meeting taken by some fans that night
Keep up the vids really enjoy them
Paul
Awesome. I wonder what he meant by seven levels?
@@RockessentialTim I guess the next day Paul didn’t know either ! Keep up the great work ..
@@paulkelly1598 I just love these kind of stories. Thanks, Paul!
Good stuff about the Beatles...but you did not give enough info about that property (the Za-ZA Gabor home) that you were walking around on, at 2850 Benedict Canyon Road. The home was built in 1949. and Cary Grant was in there for some time...then Gabor...she rented it out, not only to the Beatles, but also the rolling Stones...amd my favorite Rock God, Jimi Hendrix, stayed there for a month, during late Sept and most all of Oct of 1968!...You were walking on hallowed ground, my friends!..there are photos of Hendrix, jamming in the back patio area, along with his drummer, Mitch Mitchell....Jimi also managed to wreck his first Corvette, on that very road that you guys were cruising up on....A few days later, he bought a new one...it was interesting to see what happened to that lovely home...clearly, it was totally torn down, and I just wonder what sort of new home will take shape...the property was sold to some developer a couple of years ago...they seem to be taking their time replacing that home...Why people tear down these beautiful, older homes, I do not understand...and so many "Rock" stars visited at that place. I guess nobody really cares about such places, anymore.
there's a blue jay way isn't there out there somewhere in LA?
Where George was renting a place and the rest of the boys were supposed to come
waited around and they got lost in the fog LOL back in the day hence the song name.
Did you ever hear about the flag football games? Someplace up there there is a school (elementary I think?) and Elvis, the Memphis Mafia, Ricky Nelson,some in his band, some of the cast of THE NELSON tv show and even the Beatles when they were around, and Actors (Steve McQueen, Kent Mc Cord way before Adam 12), and bunch of athletic Actor types had a regular pretty hard core flag football game on Sundays -- I heard it was thinly disguised tackle with lots of bruises and even a finger or two were broken in those games. I think it was every week in the fall/winter ...circa '63-'66
I have never heard about that! It makes total sense cuz Rick Nelson lived in Stone Canyon which is right there in Bel Aire.
That looks a lot like Henry Kissinger right in the center of the opening still photo.
OMG yes. I think they are in Denmark or Sweden in that picture. Hilarious.
Cool video man. Several cool tidbits I never heard before. I'd love to find out more about when Jim Morrison , David Crosby , and Rick James all supposedly went to Disneyland together, and they wouldn't let them in? Did you ever hear about that?
I have never heard that story but it sounds amazing. Having worked for Disney in my past life I know what absolute idiots they can be about that kind of stuff so the story sounds likely to me.
The Beatles in Hollywood , this was The Main reason that all those Teenagers started Hanging out on The Sunset Strip in the first place.
Right on!
My ex girlfriend ( an extra on Happy Days) went to see the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl with her dad when she was a little girl
Wow! she had a pretty cool dad, right?
cool deep dive. Any traces of the 1970 visit from John & Yoko....where they got deep doing primal scream therapy. Maybe that happened north of Los Angels proper.
Thanks. Actually the John and Yoko primal scream stuff happened when they were living in Belaire not far at all from the Elvis Presley place in the vid.
I hope in part two you won't neglect the Beatles Booth at Bob's Big Boy in Toluca!
No kidding? This is the first I've heard of it. Tell me more....
@@RockessentialTim Bob's in Toluca is.a landmark diner, known for its spontaneous car shows on Friday nights. About halfway back on the right as you walk in, a booth has a plaque near the window claiming that the Beatles sat there- in 1965, I think. You have to just be sitting there to notice it. Apparently they did something at NBC? Anyway, love your excellent work here; thanks!
@@SurferJoe1 I live in Studio City and I go there every so often so I will def check it out next time. Cool!
@@RockessentialTim I was there dozens of times before I actually sat in that booth and noticed it...
back in the 70s I used to smoke weed and walk around Bel Air .The streets were empty but folks were friendly to talk to and you can SEE just how POOR the rest of us are walking there lol
In the 70's I used to smoke weed and walk around too, but damn if I can remember where!
It was patty Boyd who heard about the Indian music and Ravi shanker was playing and the went.but then they took over her life. Paul did go out with Peggy Lipton from the mod squad.
Hi Tim. I hope all is well with you. We have been looking at the travel rules and as it stands we aren't permitted to enter the US. We aren't going to book flights just yet but will keep an eye on the regulations. Take care man. The dream is still alive, just delayed! Peace
Thanks for the heads up. We are doing a lot of in country, US traveling this summer and fall. Hoping to get back to Europe next year if its not too crowded and this plague is behind us!
@@RockessentialTim I hope it is behind us soon man. We are gonna keep an eye on LA for September but at some point will have to make a decision on whether to book or postpone. We are looking at some in UK breaks as a back up. Enjoy your travels man.
L.A Is the 8th largest city in the US. Not second.
I respectfully disagree. San Diego is 8th and LA is second in population only to New York.
Wikipedia says LA 2nd
Mel Evans followed the Beatles round,because he had to remind or tell Paul what he had said or did.
A lot of weird fascination with getting high in this video, followed by laughter. I've never understood what is so funny about people doing drugs. Or getting drunk for that matter. "I'm so wasted man..." Ha ha ha?
Oh come on. Lighten up.
@@RockessentialTim Man, I'm probably your same age plus or minus. I lived through all those times. I'm pretty "light" right now -- no need to lighten up. I just think talking about drugs and laughing about it is childish.
@@emmgeevideo We all have different experiences and perspectives and I guess a story involving "drugs" that I find humorous and fun, you find childish. Okay, I get it. Different strokes and we'll just leave it at that.
Jane mansfield, damn
She'd be da bomb in any era
re Jayne Mansfield, she was a bit too clingy with John Lennon to the point of his annoyance. He urinated in her cocktail when fixing her a drink.
