Allan Williams has died at the age of 86. He is the man credited with discovering the Beatles and who became the band's first manager. Williams worked with The Beatles from 1960 to 1961, getting the band gigs in Britain, and in Hamburg where their future development was shaped.

That is strange, Jai Guru Deva, that nothing has been said by 'Paul' (if that is the case).

That is strange, Jai Guru Deva, that nothing has been said by 'Paul' (if that is the case). The man who wouldn't attend the funeral of his own "father" probably wouldn't give a passing thought to the person who allegedly managed "his" band for about a year.

Superman, I found something which might shed a little bit more light on what you're saying. In the comment section of one article about Allan Williams funeral someone wrote: ...Allan and Bob were at the Cavern, just before Paul McCartney's December 1999 gig there, and asked Geoff Baker if they could see him. ''Paul will see Bob...but not YOU'' he said to them, after Geoff the P.A had told Paul about the two visitors upstairs. Paul hugged Bob - while Allan remained upstairs in tears....LiverpoolEcho: Details Of Funeral Of The Beatles First Manager ReleasedBob may be Bob Wooler who was instrumental in introducing the Beatles to Brian Epstein. He was the compère at the Cavern Club.
