In Kyrgyzstan, a hit by "The Beatles" was performed in the Kyrgyz language.
The cover band "The Rolls Band," founded in 2010, specializes in performing songs by "The Beatles," "The Rolling Stones," Elvis Presley, and others. The lineup of this musical group is as follows: Ulan Omorov – vocals, harmonica, Ersultan Alykulov – vocals, bass guitar, Daniyar Jumanzarov – vocals, guitar, Dmitry Sosedov – drums.
The track "And I Love Her" was released on July 10, 1964, on the album "A Hard Day’s Night." The song was written by Paul McCartney in collaboration with John Lennon. The song is dedicated to McCartney's beloved at that time, actress Jane Asher. This composition reached the twelfth position on the Billboard music chart. "The Beatles" performed "And I Love Her" only once outside the Abbey Road studio – on the BBC radio show "Top Gear."
It is worth noting that in 2007, a bronze monument to the "Beatles" was erected in Almaty, created by Edward Kazaryan. The composition features Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr standing. John Lennon is depicted sitting with a guitar in his hands. Visitors can sit next to the musician's statue and take a photo with him. Songs by "The Beatles" constantly play from speakers. The monument attracts a large number of tourists and city residents visiting the entertainment center "Kok-Tyube Park."
Since 2001, January 16 has been celebrated as World Beatles Day by UNESCO. It is important to note that this date was chosen for a reason. In 1957, the "Cavern" club opened in Liverpool, where young musicians John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison, who were then unknown, began their journey to fame. A few years later, they were joined by drummer Ringo Starr.
