Beatles guitarist George Harrison’s elder sister is in Holon, spreading the love, for a Beatles festival. Fifty years ago, in March 1963, a young band from Liverpool made musical history with the release of its debut album, “Please Please Me.” The Beatles became one of only two acts to sell more than a billion records (Elvis Presley was the other), and changed the face of popular music forever.
Louise Harrison — older sister of Beatles’ lead guitarist George — is currently in Israel plugging the group’s legend, her brother’s memory, and especially his focus on peace and love. She’s doing so via The Liverpool Legends, a lively Beatles cover band she manages, which is performing at the Holon Beatles Festival, running Wednesday through Sunday.
