Jetzt anmelden unter 07221/300 200 oder swr2.de Ansage: Heute: Mythos Beatles Eine Spurensuche in Liverpool Von Michael Marek und Sven Weniger Musik Beatles "Lucy in the sky" O-Ton-Collage "Hello, this is Paul McCartney, guten Tag! This is George Harrison from the Beatles!" "When you drive on Penny Lane … street anywhere in the world!" VO 1: Wenn Sie auf der Penny Lane fahren, ehrlich, das könnte auch irgendeine andere Straße auf der Welt sein. "Beatles tourism in itself in isolation is valued … per year to the City!" VO 3: Der direkte Beatles-Tourismus spült jährlich über 97 Millionen Euro in die Stadt. "Tourism didn't really exist in Liverpool … to the Beatles they could see!" VO 4: Bis zur Ermordung von John Lennon gab es in Liverpool eigentlich keinen Tourismus. Erst dann begannen die Leute hierher zu pilgern, um all die Orte zu sehen, die etwas mit den Beatles zu tun hatten. Musikakzent Beatles "While my guitar gently weeps" + Atmo Sprecher: Liverpool im Nordwesten Englands: Knapp 500.000 Einwohner leben in der Metropole am Mersey River. Sie gilt als fußball- und musikverrückt. Die Stadt selbst nennt sich: City of Music. Denn von hier aus eroberte die größte Band aller Zeiten die Welt: The Beatles. In diesem Jahr ist die Beatlemania in Liverpool noch größer als sonst. 2017 ist das Jahr der Jubiläen: Paul McCartney wird im Juni 75 Jahre alt; er und John Lennon trafen sich vor genau 60 Jahren zum ersten Mal; genauso lange ist es her, dass der bekannteste Musikclub der Welt seine Tore öffnete: der Cavern Club. Und vor 50 Jahren kam die berühmteste Platte der Fab Four auf den Markt: Musik Beatles "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" Sprecher: Was macht den ungebrochenen Ruhm einer Band aus, die es seit bald fünfzig Jahren nicht mehr gibt? Warum ist Paul McCartney bis heute der Botschafter seiner Stadt - verehrt, bewundert, geliebt? Das wollen wir herausfinden. Atmo Starten des Motors Sprecher: Jeden Morgen um 11.00 Uhr setzt sich der bunt lackierte Bus in Bewegung. Fünfmal am Tag die gleiche Tour, stets gut gefüllt mit Besuchern von Tokio bis Buenos Aires, von 16 bis 76. Sie sind Gäste der Magical Mystery Tour, einer Zeitreise auf den Spuren der berühmtesten Söhne der Stadt. Atmo + Beginn der Beatles Tour / Gespräch im Hintergrund O-Ton Ross Grant nur im Hintergrund "… Welcome to Liverpool folks!" Sprecher: Liverpool war einst der wichtigste Seehafen Englands, später ein Sanierungsfall des industriellen Niedergangs. Seit den 1980er Jahren erlebt die Stadt ihre Wiederauferstehung, mit renovierten Hafendocks und einem City Centre, mit neuen Shoppingmalls, Szenerestaurants und Kunstgalerien. Liverpool ist die hippste Metropole Englands. Die Beatles haben einen wesentlichen Anteil daran. Wer Liverpool besucht, der kommt immer auch ihretwegen. In der Stadt beatlet es an allen Ecken und Enden. O-Ton Ross Grant nur im Hintergrund "It’s the Magical Mystery Tour. My name is Ross. And I am going to be your driver and guide for the next two hours. And we go out to the suburbs of the City …" Sprecher: Schon die Busse sind Programm: Regenbogenfarben, grelle Lackierung, flotte Sprüche aus dem unerschöpflichen Textrepertoire der Fab Four: Musik Beatles "Ticket to ride" O-Ton Ross Grant nur im Hintergrund "We are going to Beatles early life till they had to leave to London before eventually capturing the world. Ok, we are looking the bad places, the schools and collages where they went to … where they met too." Sprecher: Tourguide Ross Grant verspricht, nahezu alle wichtigen Beatles-Orte in Liverpool abzuklappern. Mit seinem blauen Pulli und der abgewetzten Jeans gibt der 60- Jährige den burschikosen Experten in Sachen Beatles. O-Ton Ross Grant nur im Hintergrund "And then we will stop at the places you want to see: Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields … Musik Beatles MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR … Atmo Bus" Musik Beatles "Magical Mystery Tour" 3 Sprecher: Die Magical Mystery Tour beginnt im Albert Dock, dem restaurierten historischen Hafen Liverpools. Neben Fahrer Ross sitzt Joey Lyons. Er ist der Experte, wenn es ums Hintergründige geht - das, was der Beatles-Fan nicht sofort sieht. Beim ersten Stopp, vier über zwei Meter hohe Bronzestatuen, legt Joey los: Musikakzent Beatles "Happiness is a warm gun" O-Ton Joey Lyons "We’re now at the Pier Head in Liverpool …of state as a symbol of peace." VO 1: Wir stehen hier am Pier Head. Wenn wir auf die Rückenansichten der vier Statuen der Beatles blicken, dann sehen wir etwas, von dem die wenigsten wissen. John Lennon hält in der rechten Hand zwei Eicheln. Wohin auch immer Lennon in der Welt reiste, überreichte er Staatsmännern und Politikern eine Handvoll Eicheln als Friedensymbol. Musik Ringo Star "Liverpool 8" O-Ton Joey Lyons "Ringo Starr, beneath …." VO 1: Unter dem Fuß von Ringo Starr sind ein L und die Zahl 8 eingraviert. Das ist die Postleitzahl des Bezirks, in dem er aufwuchs. Sprecher: Joey ist ein typischer Liverpudlian: freundlich, humorvoll, schlechte Zähne. Wegen seines starken Akzentes ist er mitunter kaum zu verstehen: Musik George Harrison "Within without" O-Ton Joey Lyons "The belt of George Harrison, Indian writing, because that’s the philosophy, George Harrison had." VO 1: Auf dem Gürtel, den George Harrison trägt, steht hinten ein indisches Mantra. Denn das war die Philosophie, an die er glaubte. O-Ton Joey Lyons "And if you come round to … " 4 VO 1: Und wenn Sie hier vor Paul McCartney stehen, dem wichtigsten Mann der Band, dann sehen Sie, dass er eine Filmkamera trägt, die sicher von Linda McCartney ist. Linda war ja Photographin. Musik George Harrison "Within without" Sprecher: Viele Liverpudlians wie Ross Grant und Joey Lyons leben nicht in der Vergangenheit, sie leben von ihr – und das recht gut. Jedenfalls sehr viel besser als die berühmtesten Söhne der Stadt Anfang der wilden 1960er, als die Vier noch am Anfang ihrer Karriere standen. Musik Beatles "Cry for a shadow" Atmo Mersey River Ferry Sprecher: Einen Steinwurf von den bronzenen Fab Four entfernt, am Pier der Fähre über den Mersey, treffen wir Joe Keggin vom städtischen Tourismusbüro. Liverpool sei inzwischen eines der größten Touristenziele im Land – vor allem wegen der Beatles. Der schlanke Mittdreißiger präsentiert uns stolz seine Erfolgzahlen im Stil eines Wirtschaftsprüfers: O-Ton Joe Keggin "Tourism is a very important industry … bringing here." VO 3: Jedes Jahr kommen etwa 560.000 Touristen nach Liverpool. 49.000 Arbeitsplätze sind direkt oder indirekt vom Tourismus abhängig. Zehn Prozent gehen davon auf das Konto der Fab Four. Der direkte Beatles-Tourismus spült jährlich über 97 Millionen Euro in die Stadt. Daran können Sie erkennen, wie wichtig die Beatles für uns sind. Sie bringen die Leute hierher. Sprecher: Hinter diesen schieren Zahlen verbergen sich Dienstleistungen aller Art: von Souvenir-Verkäufern über Taxi-Chauffeure bis zum Beatles-Tourguide, vom Fanartikel-Hersteller bis hin zum Museumskurator reicht die Palette derjenigen, die vom Image der Musikmetropole direkt profitieren und es in ein neues urbanes Lebensgefühl für die iPod-Generation verwandeln. O-Ton Joe Keggin T-18-0:20 "Particularly internationally the Beatles is … different proposition indeed." VO 3: Die Beatles sind eine wichtige Marke für Liverpool – vor allem international. 5 Menschen aus aller Welt verbinden die Beatles mit Liverpool. Und sie pilgern hierher, um Strawberry Fields zu sehen, Penny Lane, den berühmten Cavern Club, wo die Beatles fast 300 Mal aufgetreten sind. Das ist ein Schatz für die Stadt. Ohne die Beatles würde Liverpool anders aussehen. Musik Beatles "You never give me money" Sprecher: Weiter geht es auf der Magical Mystery Tour, die magische Rätselreise im Wunderland nicht versiegender Anekdoten und Begebenheiten. Im bunten Bus nähern wir uns einem der Höhepunkte jeder Tour: Musik Beatles "Penny Lane" Sprecher: Penny Lane - steht auf dem unscheinbaren Straßenschild. Ross lächelt schelmisch zu uns rüber: O-Ton Ross Grant "When the Beatles released … a painted sign." VO 4: Als die Beatles den Song 1967 herausbrachten, kamen Menschen in Scharen aus der ganzen Welt hierher. Die Straßenschilder wurden als Souvenirs einfach abmontiert. Mit den Jahren wurde das dem Stadtrat zu bunt, und man ließ den Straßennamen einfach auf diese Mauer vor uns "malen". Atmo Sprecher: Penny Lane - das könnte auch irgendeine andere Straße auf der Welt sein, so unscheinbar wirkt der weltberühmte Fahrweg: Eng und zweispurig mit schmalen Bürgersteigen führt sie an grünen Sportflächen und Parks vorbei. Nach einem halben Kilometer wird es städtischer, gesäumt von typisch zweistöckigen Backsteinhäusern mit nur wenigen Geschäften: O-Ton Ross Grant "In this song … growing up in Liverpool." VO 4: Warum dieser Song so wichtig ist? Penny Lane spielte im Leben der Beatles eine große Rolle. Hier sind Paul und John aufgewachsen, Penny Lane ist ihnen in Fleisch und Blut gegangen. Hier sind sie jeden Tag vorbeigekommen. Viele Songs der Beatles handeln von den Erinnerungen an ihre Kindheit in Liverpool. Musik Beatles "Penny Lane" 6 Sprecher: Nächster Stopp: LIPA, das Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts. Hier ging Paul McCartney zur Schule. John Lennon und seine erste Frau Cynthia studierten hier Kunst.

Released October 5, 1962, it reached #17 on the British charts. Principally written by Paul McCartney in 1958 and 1959. Recorded with three different drummers: Pete Best (June 6, 1962, EMI), Ringo Starr (September 4, 1962), and Andy White (September 11, 1962 with Ringo playing tambourine). The 45 rpm single lists the songwriters as Lennon-McCartney. One of several Beatles songs Paul McCartney owns with Yoko Ono. Starting with the songs recorded for their debut album on February 11, 1963, Lennon and McCartney’s output was attached to their Northern Songs publishing company. Because their first single was released before John and Paul had contracted with a music publisher, EMI assigned it to their own, a company called Ardmore and Beechwood, which took the two songs “Love Me Do” and “P.S. I Love You.” Decades later McCartney and Ono were able to purchase the songs for their respective companies, MPL Communications and Lenono Music. Fun fact: John Lennon shoplifted the harmonica he played on the song from a shop in Holland.
