When the windscreen of their van shattered in freezing temperatures in January ’63, and the Beatles lay huddled on top of one another for warmth during the drive from Liverpool to London, Evans was driving. It’s true he didn’t get a large salary. Malcolm Frederick 'Mal' Evans (27 May 1935 – 5 January 1976) was best known as the road manager, assistant, and a friend of The Beatles: John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr.. So there we are.
Excited. He was letting his freak flag fly.Thirty-five years ago today, on the night of January 4, 1976, four Los Angeles policemen responded to a call from a rented motel apartment at 8122 West 4th Street.As we’ll see, Mal Evans spent years — over a decade! Parts of the memoir ("Living the Beatles' Legend") were published, but not all. Why? Unfortunately, the band exploded with shrapnel flying everywhere and the band members went flying into addictions, therapy (or lack of it) and recriminations. Mal always looked the same, as another photo from the ashram proves:Evans was also, as mentioned earlier, a former telephone engineer. Any comments on that, please?“Getting mentioned” won’t earn any money (BTW, he’d been dead almost 20 years when the Anthology came out).
Reading the lyrics today, I wonder if it’s really a song about Mal Evans and his determination to “die” and go underground?September 13, 1968. Diana’s alive and well, settled down with Dodie in suburban bliss, wearing new identities, in the English seaside town of Worthing (featured by Oscar Wilde in The Importance of Being Ernest). This is a serious and sober investigation, concerned only with facts.Best comment on the article yet, thanks.If Mal Evans did not die in 1976 — if, in fact, he went underground instead — then where did he go?
My father, John Hoernle, was there.
We liked the colour, evoking Liverpool football club and the British working class movement (“The workers’ flag is deepest red”) and It was great that we put the lyrics to the songs on the sleeve — that was the biggest breakthrough at a time when normal fans didn’t have access to the words. Evans was, as we’ll see, something of a Shakespeare scholar, as well — which reminds us of Pynchon’s description of Oedipa, “a rare creature indeed, unfit perhaps for marches and sit-ins, but just a whiz at pursuing strange words in Jacobean texts.” Pynchon tells the story of an outsider: wandering alone between the forces of structure and chaos, between the status quo and the colorful mob.
And you need to realise, Josh, anything that can ease the pain like that is addictive.According to my research, a “Malcolm Evans” began studying English Literature and Drama at the University of Wales in 1966; this same Evans received a Ph.D. from that university in 1972. He grew a moustache and shaved it off. Otherwise the article was interesting up to that point.In 1962, Brian Epstein hired former telephone engineer/repairman “Big Mal” Evans (his height was somewhere between six-foot-two and six-foot-six; it depends which account you believe) as the Beatles’ assistant road manager.This is terrific stuff, keep it flowing. The mouth widths are different at rest, the outer ear cartilage straight-on from the side of the head is radically different, the teeth are radically different for a specific reason which can only be fixed by serious palatal surgery with a head brace and can’t be fixed by mere orthodontic work (tong-term braces work which was not historically done anyway).Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is no conspiracy here. Some people just don’t go to such things.I grew up with Mal in Waldgrave Road Liverpool. He can be seen in the Let It Be film, most notably towards the end of the famous rooftop sequence. I was there with Macca3 (the one who can’t sing) at the Jubilee celebrations. I also never met them to know what were they like. Mal died that night. The Beatles' manager, Brian Epstein, later hired Evans as the group's assistant roadie, in tandem with Neil Aspinall. I have that book here, now, on my desk. Nor is it any of that earlier stuff like Tommy or Aqualung.In November 1966, on the flight back to England after a holiday trip with Evans and Jane Asher to Kenya, McCartney conceived an idea in which an entire album would be role-played, with each of The Beatles assuming an alter-ego in the “Lonely Hearts Club Band”, which would then perform a concert in front of an audience. Now, if ME had given you a copy of “The Crying of Lot 49” for Xmas, *that* would have been uncanny.This man is very clearly not Mal.
Mal was very loyal to the Beatles. Going underground was key to the radical chic mythos, then.This is genius on so many levels. For example, he played Hammond organ on “You Won’t See Me.” (He is sometimes referred to as Mal “Organ” Evans.) In the early 1960s, Evans was employed as a telephone engineer, and also worked part-time as a bouncer at the Cavern Club, where The Beatles performed. You need to look at Tom P’s Proverbs for Paranoids: “If they get you asking the wrong questions they don’t have to worry about the answers”.
