I love this photo of the Beatles’ final live performance, in 1969 on the roof of the Apple offices. I love it because of the London skyline at the top of the photo. Grey, grotty, dusty… quite the antithesis of the psychedelic Fab Four below (or perhaps a reflection of the state of the group at that point?) The 1970s are literally on the horizon, and things are about to get grim. OK - glam, then grim, but you take my point.
And in this day & age there can be no greater plaudit for a photograph than this: I have it as the lockscreen on my iPhone.
