Wow, engaged to a Beatle, dated the artist of the 'Revolver' album, and came up with The Beatles famous mop-top haircuts. She is a very important woman in history indeed
Stuart and John created the Beatles!! This guy was the Beatle we never Got! He was a Beatle who decided to take a break to paint and died... Funny how Destiny works! He was about to conquer the world!! Then suddenly fate decides to kill him! Its a powerful thought! What could have been!!! A true poet......lost to history.......never to be..........
She was a saint. She never tried to make a penny off their fame. She's responsible for the cover of "With the Beatles." It's her style. They told the photographer to do it like that.
Sal Guglielmino and she gave up photography as a career in 1968 because she felt she was only known for her beatles photographs which is such a shame. she wasn’t interested in making money off them, they were just her friends
Yes, her and Stu were the real artists in the group. But that just shows that John, Paul and Pete were artists in their own right, but Stu was light years ahead of them. His death is just so sad. He quit the Beatles because he had bigger fish to fry, artistically speaking.
I hope this beautiful soul will never be forgotten. Not only for her work with The Beatles, but also as a major catalyst in the way society changed in the 1960's. And I hope she is again with Stuart. Their deep and short lived love truly is a modern example of a Greek Tragedy and/or a Shakespearean play. RIP dear Astrid.
Agreed. Stu would have been a famous artist-Im sure he would have been asked to design a Beatles album cover in time around the time of Sgt. Peppers. Too bad he was injured and died so young.
I can associate myself with the way Astrid feels. 50 years later, I also have the love of my life who died and despite several marriages and relationships, have and will always love him.
I first met lovely Astrid in 1960 when she came to the Kaiser Keller were I was playing with my band Derry and the Seniors, The Beatles used come to the club after they had finished their gig at the Indra, and would get up and jam with us, Astrid ,Klaus, and a few of their artistic friends would stay until we'd all finished playing, maybe around 3.00 am. I think all the guys fancied Astrid, but Stu and her seemed to be an item straight from the beginning. Stu ended up playing with my band because the boss of the club decided to split my band in two, so as to keep live music going all night, so Stu was nicked from The Beatles to play with us, neither he nor The Beatles were best pleased, but at least we could see Astrid most nights. She's a really nice person, used to see her quite often when I played Hamburg.
I would love to interview you-not that I have a show just speaking selfishly! I've only heard of your band as mentioned in many books but they always spoke of you kindly shaferlee@aol.com
Astrid was a great photographer! The pictures she took of "early" Beatles were some of the best, in my opinion. Stu and Astrid made for a cute couple and anyone with eyes could see that they were in love. R.I.P., Stu and Astrid, because you are together, again, finally....
R.I.P. Astrid. Thank you for the gift you gave to the world. Your beautiful photographs are an important part of history, as was your influence on the greatest group of all time. Your name will live forever. ❤️
I just LOVEEEEEEEE this woman! She is so special, just like the love of her life, Stuart Sutcliffe. I'm fascinated by both of them & by their story! I wish to meet her one day!
Klaus also designed the album cover for Revolver. Astrids photos capture a special moment in time. Black & White photography works brilliantly with these themes, but also is reflective of those times that seemed to those alive then to be, Black & White. Its only later that we all begn to think more in colour. During this period we used to see a lot of very haunting B & W french films with poor sub titles and yet they also conveyed or captured an atmosphere never to be repeated.
Rest In Peace Astrid, an amazing photographer and person. I can only imagine the photos you’re taking up in Heaven right now! Please say hello to Stu, John, and George for em when you get the chance. 😔
What a talented, beautiful, sweet and kind woman she was. Listening to her talk about Stu is so heartwarming and so sad. He was as gifted if not more so than any of them. What a terrible loss.
Yes, I think it was love at first sight. They seemed such a good match and she was very concerned about those awful headaches he was getting. Even so, he would not go to see a doctor; perhaps something could have been done. How awful it must have been for Astrid when he died so suddenly. She was the "Baby's In Black" inspiration,
@@bobbybrooks4826 Of course we will never know. One explanation could be that he didn't want to worry his family, being so far from home. Have to do some more research on this. In any case, the art world lost a real talent.
Astrid, Klaus, and Jurgen were the original hipsters. Such freaking cool people. Astrid also talks about them in such a warm, almost motherly way. It's really sweet.
Much as I love other beat groups, The Beatles had an aesthetic head start, as well as the innate songwriting talent. I once interviewed John Mcnally from The Searchers, asking him what it was about the band and he replied that it was thier power. Usually audiences in ballrooms would mill around and dance when a band played, but when The Beatles played they would surge to the stage. Astrid plainly an important counterpart and influence. Stu an absolute style icon (see Johnny Marr's biography). Ridiculously handsome man, so my wife says. So terribly sad what happened, but there is a legacy of beauty and art. ML
I came upon this video while reading, "How They Became the Beatles" by Pawlowski. I'm on a personal mission to understand how these young men could write so much amazing music. What a fascinating journey.
Excellent! That's Terri Gross, of Philadelphia's WHYY's "Fresh Air" radio program, conducting the interview. Astrid's photos of the Beatles reverberate through the decades.
Wow, how interesting this is. I’ve been a Beatles fan for 58 years and never really knew any of this. I always figured there was SOMEONE that came up with the Beatles hairstyle, but I never heard exactly who it was…and they never really said where it came from when they were asked about it (which was only everywhere they went).
I have a 1964 Hofner Club guitar just like Lennon has in the group photo at 1.25. And McCartney has upside down in the lorry photo. Had it since i was 12 in 1967.
Later she got over Stu and grew her hair. She was with the Beatles a number of times thereafter. The Beatles said that at one time or another she was the girlfriend of each of them. They were young, kids.
I would say she never got over Stu. In one interview she says that all of her marriages ended up divorced and she has no children. Also yeah, she was friend with all of The Beatles (mostly with John and George) but they were only friends! Read the book (Astrid Kirchherr : A retrospective) or find some letters that she wrote to Stu's mother Millie. She still puts a flower next to his picture on her bedside. Believe me, this sort of pain will never go away. You have someone by your side, you think it will last forever, you love them like nothing else in this world and boom - they are gone. And your pain is not smaller because you are very young.
@@nige-g I know, I'm so sad and truly heartbroken. But I believe that Astrid is now with Stuart, the love of her life. Rest in peace Astrid, you lovely lady.
For those of you that don't know, Klaus Voormann, a companion of Astrid, eventually became a pretty good bass player [. he has played on a lot of albums for various famous rockers. I think he may have also been sitting in on Double Fantasy.
My favourite individual in the offstage of the Liverpool4. Or 5 or 6. Never saw the pics with grey jackets. Can you imagine how angry Lennon would have been unable to get a leather?!
astrid seems such a gentle and artistic soul. (a lot lkike stu i guess.) she was the only one involved in the beatle story to not get her proper credit or deserved financial benefit. she was never properly compensated for those fabulous photos of the beatles she took in hamburg. this video was posted 5 years before i ever went on YT. but, thanks for the video.
I'm not a very big George Harrison fan but I'm really impressed bearing in mind how old he was at the time that he was the first one after Stu to get the haircut.
Astrid Kirchherr has had an impact on world culture off of the Rictor-Scale, and it will only be accurately reckoned centuries later. To quote Stephen Crane in "Maggie--a Girl of the Streets", She blossomed in a mud puddle [post-war Germany]; this to become a single-handed force for psycho-social and politico-cultural liberation. All with just a gorgeous, elfin-featured face of her own and a knack for capturing un-earthly beauty on earth with a camera!
Topic: "Astrid Kirchherr's Pictures" ~ Quote by GEORGE HARRISON ~ "Astrid was totally responsible for our whole image. She said, 'Hold your head here, turn to the left.' ... All we did was pose."
@@ewankerr3011 yes,,, I know.... Look, Young healthy men don't just drop Dead from brain aneurysms ... I don't believe in coincidences... Especially one's That end UP being beneficial to certain people and especially when there's a lot of high stake events going on.
I think astrid was platonic love of all that john wrote the early beatles was nothing more than the frustration of not being to fall in love with astrid.
@Ann TwoShoes Yes, more or less, Astrid was the "inventor" of the Beatles haircut, but it wasn't just her...It was the look of her friends, Klaus Voorman & Jurgen Vollmer, the latter having talked John & Paul, rather reluctantly at the time, into the new look. But Pete Best never adopted the new look...Maybe that could have been partly the reason why he was dropped from the group...because he didn't fall in line with the rest of them???
Okay, now I'm curious about how John and Paul got Beatle haircuts in Paris without Klaus's or Astrid's presence. I had once heard it was a common hairstyle among the French bohemian types. And it sounds like they were prompted to get the haircuts. What's the truth?
William, you might look for Tony Sheridan in a 2003 tour and discussion of the early Hamburg days with the Beatles-the video is here on youtube. He mentions the haircuts and his take is amusing. He’s quite insightful and entertaining as he describes the whole early-sixties scene, which, apart from the music, seems to have been no picnic....
Yes Jurgen had taken up an apprenticeship in Paris. When John turned 21, he was given £100 by a wealthy Scottish relative. He and Paul planned to hitch hike from Liverpool to Spain. When they got to Paris, they actively looked up Jurgen and when they found him, they asked him to cut their hair in the Klaus/Stuart/George style which the rest of the world would go on to know as the Beatle Mop Top
wow.....why to kill something beautiful,photography is something very hard to do,it about the light and the setting,not just the click of a button, a good photographer can see things in a why other people can and then catch it on film
In my opinion, If Stuart had lived he would of joined John and Yoko in the post-beatle Plastic Ono Band, or a renown painter or model. Either way he was bound for greatness.
Astrid passed just a few days ago, now she is with her Stuart.
RIP Astrid
