1956 - Julia buys John a guitar at Frank Hessy's music store.

July 6, 1957 - John meets Paul McCartney at the Woolton Parish Church in Liverpool during a performance by the Quarrymen. John, impressed by Paul's ability to tune a guitar and by his knowledge of song lyrics, later asks Paul if he wants to join the group as lead guitarist.
