ON THIS DAY, May 15th 1967, LINDA EASTMAN & PAUL McCARTNEY met for the first time at the Bag O’ Nails club.
“ Across a crowded room, as they say, our eyes met and the violins started playing ... There was an immediate attraction between us. As she was leaving -- she was with the group the Animals, whom she’d been photographing –- I saw an obvious opportunity. I said: “My name’s Paul. What’s yours?” I think she probably recognised me. It was so corny, but I told the kids later that, had it not been for that moment, none of them would be here. Later that night, we went on together to another club, the Speakeasy. It was our first date and I remember I heard Procol Harum’s A Whiter Shade of Pale for the first time. It became our song. “
— Paul McCartney.
