BRIAN EPSTEIN by Paul Michael Kennelly 30th Aug 2010
They loved how he spoke cultured bloke
come from the ‘Pool old posh school
classics to pop dance till you drop
father in trade top man self made
furniture store music and more
listening booths all scouser youth
and , so they say to the cavern one day
boys clad in leather he’s all of a lather
excited his eye loosened his tie
got them to sign now they are mine
doing the rounds selling the sounds
Parlay a phone gave them a home
Liverpool sound bouncing around
fame and success London address
off to the States reception is great
boyfriend at last life is a blast
then turfs him out a rave and a shout
alone in his room was he in gloom
friends say Oh No
he was happy you know
we know that Brian wasn’t ready to go
found in his bed pills at his head
who is to say what took him away
