Where can I read more about Rory Storm? Because he seems like he’d be funny to read about

I haven't been on Tumblr in an extraordinarily long time, but found this upon coming back and figured I'd reply anyway just in case it ends up being helpful to someone.

I personally found out much of what I know about Rory Storm (and his Hurricanes) through deep dives on the internet. (Many, many hours on the internet.) But! There is also a book published by Anthony Hogan called "From A Storm To A Hurricane", which details Rory's life incredibly well, including anecdotes and personal stories from those who knew him. Truly can't recommend that book enough for fans of Rory, or those just wanting to know a little about another amazingly talented and charismatic Liverpool band/musician.

I would also like to say - I am now very much available for questions regarding him as well. Always willing to search through a book or two to get an answer out about Rory!

Rory Storm and the Hurricanes

I’ve noticed an uptick in the amount of interaction my Rory Storm posts are getting. I’ve read just about everything there is to know about Rory, and have a copy of the only live performance audio there is of Rory Storm and the Hurricanes, besides the little there is on YouTube (which includes the footage of the boys at the Cavern Club). If any of you out there are fans looking for more info or have questions or just want to talk to someone who also loves Rory and the boys, feel free to shoot me a message!

Cincinnati, Ohio, 21 August, 1966.

I’ve lived, I really have. I’ve done it all. I love the fact that I made people happy. Even if it’s half an hour of their lives, if I can make them feel lucky or bring a smile to a sour face, that to me is worthwhile.

Cilla Black celebrates her 21st birthday with Pattie Boyd, George Harrison and Brian Epstein at London’s Caprice restaurant, May 1964.

[The Caprice] had a brilliant Belgian chef and was one of London’s top three places to eat at that time. I felt so happy and so grown up […] When it came to dessert I was feeling pretty full, but Eppy was determined that I should try the wild strawberries and cream.

‘Oh, go on,’ he said, ‘they’re absolutely gorgeous. I’d have them myself if I weren’t on a diet.’

So I gave in, but I didn’t like them at all. Unsophisticated as I was, I thought there was too much alcohol sprinkled over the strawberries.

‘Oh well,’ said Eppy, ‘in that case I’ll help you out’ - and he polished off the lot.

The Beatles arrive in Barcelona, Spain, July 3 1965. The group was presented with four little dolls in typical Andalusian dress, and four monteras (a type of cap used by bull fighters) with compliments of the promoter. Paul toyed with his cap and played the fool, pretending it was a goblet. Also visible are members of the Beatles entourage, including Brian Epstein, Wendy Hanson (Epstein’s assistant), Neil Aspinall, Alf Bicknell and Mal Evans. [x]
