LOST TAPE FOUND
A lost Beatles tape featuring John Lennon working on the song She Said, She Said is to be auctioned by Christie's.  The London auction house is planning a special sale of the
32-minute recording owned by American collector Chris Lopez.  The tape will go on sale on April 30 and has a reserve price of £152,000.  It features 20 rough versions of  the song, written after a Hollywood party on the Beatles 1965 US tour, reports the Liverpool Echo.  Paul McCartney and John Lennon can be heard on the tape discussing the song.  Mr Lopez had apparently been in negotiations with Yoko Ono, Julian Lennon and EMI, the Beatle's record company, to sell the cassette until talks broke down.

TRIBUTE WALL FOR GEORGE
A "tribute wall" dedicated to George Harrison is being unveiled at The Beatles Story museum.  Directors of the Liverpool attraction commissioned the wall in response to the requests of visitors.  Guests at the ceremony are expected to include Merseybeat stars Colin Hanton of The Quarrymen and The Swinging Blue Jeans' Ray Ennis.  The event also marks what would have been Harrison's 59th birthday.  It follows a sell-out tribute concert to the guitarist staged on Sunday night at Liverpool's Empire Theatre featuring a guest appearance by Sir Paul McCartney.  The Beatles Story bosses say there will be consultations during the course of the year with a view to opening a "fitting and more
permanent form of tribute" within the exhibition.  The award-winning museum charts the history of the "Fab Four" from their Liverpool childhood through their meteoric rise to fame and their eventual break-up in 1970.
