	Pete Best - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The son of Mona Best, the owner of Liverpool's Casbah Club, where The Beatles played occasionally, Best was first invited to join the band in 1959, later rejoining for their 1960–1961 residency in Hamburg.
		Best filed a libel suit against The Beatles in October of that year, because Starr implied in an interview with Playboy magazine that Best had been fired because he was a drug user.
		Best decided to leave show business, and in Hunter Davies' 1968 authorised Beatles biography, he was portrayed as both somewhat bitter but also unwilling to further talk about or otherwise cash in on his Beatles association.

	Toronto Sun: - Rock the Casbah
		Best is well known as one of the most unfortunate individuals in entertainment history, having been ditched by The Beatles in favour of Ringo Starr mere months before the group made it big.
		Mona Best -- who is lovingly referred to in the book as the "Mother of Merseybeat" -- started the club on Aug. 29, 1959 in the basement of the large Best family home in the West Derby section of Liverpool.
		Mona obviously was furious about Pete's fate, but she was in an odd position, having had a son with Aspinall, who continued to work for The Beatles.

	Mona Best
		Mona Best, affectionately called 'Mo' by her family and friends, was born of English parents in Delhi, India, where she worked for the Red Cross and met and married John Best, a commissioned officer.
		Best was championing the group, obviously because of her son's part in it, but she was determined to help them to success and even wrote off to Granada Television in an attempt to get them on television.
		Best was furious at what she regarded as disgraceful treatment after Pete had worked so hard for the success of the group over the two most important formative years.

	PaulMcCartney.Name \| Best Salutes the Beatles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		As his new cleverly titled DVD Best of the Beatles chronicles, the reasons run the gamut from producer George Martin's negative assessment of Best's drumming skills to his good looks, which were thought to eclipse those of his mates, and even that his ousting was a way to get rid of Mona, Best's managerial mother.
		Best, of course, never got to enjoy the ride, as he would be fired by the group in'62 and replaced by Ringo Starr.
		Best plans to tour the U.S. this spring and admits that though the lineup of the Pete Best Band has indeed changed over the years, unlike the Beatles, he's never had to fire a member.

	Mona Lisa [www.progweed.net]
		Mona Lisa was one of the more popular French symphonic groups of the late 70s, and a close follower of the seminal group Ange, with perhaps even more of a Genesis influence.
		Like all of Mona Lisa's albums, the weak point for me is the drumming, which is for the most part excessively straight forward and hampers the overall complexity of the group.
		The success is upheld by what could be the best Mona Lisa track ever, the jaw-dropping "De Toute ma Haine", which absolutely explodes out of the speakers with a hellish vocal melody that functions as perhaps the most intense moment from an already very intense singer, and is followed by an earth shattering Moog workout.

		For 40 years, Pete Best has been known as the world's most famous sacking victim, the man dismissed by the Beatles when they were on the very cusp of becoming the most successful group of all time.
		Best claims Sutcliffe's musical abilities have been unjustly maligned: "A lot of people tend to think of Stu [that] he could plunk the bass but that was about all.
		Though Best attempted suicide in 1965, he says, "I've never thought that it was a bad thing that I was in the Beatles.

	DVD Talk Review: Mona Lisa - Criterion #107
		Mona Lisa seems on the surface to be a typical 'hooker with a heart of gold' story but by the time the film is over you realize that Jordan has deconstructed that basic plot and produced a masterful think piece with many levels of meaning.
		Mona Lisa is a very monochromatic film with an almost fl and white feel (harking back in many ways to classic Film Noir) so contrast and color balance are critical.
		Mona Lisa is a dialogue driven film and I'm pleased to report that the voices are crisp and clear throughout.

	A Night With Pete Best
		Best seized the opportunity afford by the rock and roll fervor that was developing with regard to the popularity of beat clubs emerging all over Liverpool in the late 1950s.
		In response to questions surrounding the death of Stu, Best mentioned that while he and Lennon had rescued Sutcliffe from a fight, it was his view that this altercation was not responsible for Sutcliffe's death.
		Best apparently saw The Beatles briefly at concerts where they played with his band "Lee Curtis and The All Stars." But from the early 1960s until the present day, Best has had no contact with them.

	Mona Lisa delivers homemade goodness for the whole family (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
		Maybe it's best to approach Mona Lisa in the same way a therapist might approach marginally psychotic family discord -- order one dish for everyone, get the whole family grumping along in a charade of forced compromise, push 'em right up to the brink of rage, and before you know it, everything's sunshine and daisies.
		Mona Lisa's re-do of the ill-fated Liam's Piano Bar is a little ambivalent, giving some hints of grown-up dining (nice bar, minus the piano) and some gestures toward family convenience (like the chalkboard menus on the walls), but maybe not enough of either to make clear what Mona Lisa wants to be.
		At its best, Mona Lisa is a place for such warming Italian moments as lobster and shrimp linguine Fra Diavolo ($33), which wisely avoids the too-hesitant tendencies of too many Italian restaurants, delivering peppery heat, along with nice chunks of shellfish and a subtle tomato undertone.

	Metroactive Music \| Pete Best
		Best, who brings his Beatles cover band to Fairfax this week, was there at the beginning.
		Before Brian Epstein came on the scene, Best's mother served as de facto manager for the group she called "Pete's band." The girls loved Pete, but the rap (from his mom and others) was that the remaining Beatles were jealous of the charismatic drummer's good looks.
		Stung by the slight, Best passed up a chance to join the Merseybeats, another Liverpool band in Epstein's stable of pop acts, and took to pounding the skins for the now-obscure Lee Curtis and the Allstars (a gig arranged secretly by the guilt-ridden Epstein).
