I watched 'Hours and the times' last night (great film btw), and it occured to me me how little I know about Brian. Is there bio's on him anyone could recommend?

I've just found some interesting photos while perusing Eppylover's sites.
I will be posting said photos in the appropriate sections.

I've just found some interesting photos while perusing Eppylover's sites. I will be posting said photos in the appropriate sections. OK, well then, I am going to "jump the shark" as they say in television, and throw caution to the wind and post this gem. Noone will understand it; I am not sure that I do. But it is very, very interesting. If this particular post seems to be a little too much for the NBC censors, then I will be happy to remove it with an immediacy that can hardly be believed. But not before lunchtime.  I think this has a place here (if not HERE, than I don't know where.....) And after all, hardly anyone will really see it.......... They did a great job. William did a great, amazing job. Well, words are inadequate to cover the extent of the focus and dedication involved. I can't pretend to summarize the efforts of 40 years in one paragraph. But I can acknowledge them. Cheers. |

Doc, is that you ? Did you work a "wonder" to create this little gem, or is this for real ?  |

Doc, is that you ? Did you work a "wonder" to create this little gem, or is this for real ? Well, no, it isn't me. My nose is pointier and I could never begin to open my mouth that wide. And the teeth! The dream of every orthodontist, those teeth! Marie Osmond never had teeth that perfect! I had braces for 2 years for nothing! AARRGH!! It's another person who is unknown to our debate I believe. I thought maybe this is an indicator; it's someone with Brian, but, you know, it could have been one of his other talented young protegés at the time. Clearly this photograph is a forgery, a complete fake! Study the hair and transition of greyscale in the center of the hair itself, and also the edges of the chin against the shirt. That person's head was added to cover the face that is beneath it. The face beneath that picture COULD be the real James Paul, but we'll never know because there is no way to uncover the image. Judging from the suit, the Pan Am logo, Brian's presence, and the pointing left hand on Bri's shoulder, I suspect that it was a picture of JamesPaul before being altered. And since common sense dictates that noone attempting to hide an image of someone's face would use another image of the same person one was concealing, then it stands to reason that the face of the person next to Brian IS NOT James Paul. My roommate thinks that the person next to Brian is William (or Paul, he really hasn't decided) and it's a picture before nose surgery. He thinks the face, except for the nose, agrees in every way to William/Paul/whomever. It is his estimation that Sir Paul/Wiliam/JPM was likely vain and thought having a nose job would help his popularity with girls. That may be true. Though the ladies do well to remember that broad cartiledge is a leading indicator of....... Now, the question remains: is that Brian or Frian? but we have too little material yet to make that judgement. In contrast, the person on the far left of my combo picture argues for being James Paul for several reasons, which I will not dwell on here. One reason: eye color. Fellow on our far left has dark irises; fellow in middle has seemingly lighter irises. Hard to measure in black and white--still, note the eye color difference. For all I know the man next to Brian/Frian may be Peter Noone or maybe noone at all. A possibility: maybe it's a sly prank by one of those clever delinquents from the "myspace" website, who thought it would be killer bee's to photoshop his face covering up McCartney's and then circulate it on the net. I found the pic at the new Epstein picture post site, one of those I posted the url of above. I theorize that the "myspace" etc. person got it around the net, the webmasters at the Epstein site found it and are using it in ignorance of the superimposure. So, this picture, for these reasons, fails to merit further circulation because it only plays into the hands of a mischievous member of the "Y" generation. And I say, "oh, why Help! the prankster"? I can read between those pixels. Since Paul himself is totally covered, the fellow we now see in that picture isn't Paul. |

I found this online: So this was "concerning" Karlheinz Stockhausen's picture on the Sgt. Pepper cover? In which Stockhausen becomes Adolf Hitler speaking into a microphone before a mass audience, when viewed with a mirror and glass onion. |

The striking differences in the ears of the different "Brians," among other aspects, prove it: Brian Epstein was a role played by imposters/actors. |

Interesting observation on TKIN today: both Knotts and the 1967 Frian have the same eyebrow scar. They also left this untouched despite the evident heavy makeup that would have to be applied to transform Knotts into a plausible Frian and hide his Knottsiness. This would seem to be way beyond coincidence. If Knotts was playing the role of Brian Epstein would the "Mighty Wurlitzer" running the show leave this in as a kind of (almost literally) "wink" to the insiders and those in the know?

all the other features seem different... I would tend to agree... (do I win the understatement of the year award?) A lack of growth of eyebrow hair in a similar location proves the man on the right is Don Knotts? I'm still not sure of a Frian, although there are a couple of odd pictures. I'll tell you this, the man on the right has Brian's ear characteristics. |

The Knotts-Frian viewer's right eyebrow scar proof: Totally ridiculous. If anyone is considering this as a remote possibility, please PM me right away, I have a very special investment for you. |

Totally ridiculous.
Which facial features do you find incongruous?
Be specific.

The young man with Brian in the photo on the right with Pan Am plane in background is Tommy Quickly who was signed by Brian to his "stable" of acts. Unfortunately, his records didn't make much impact despite Brian's enthusiasm. So it is NOT JPM or Bill.
