However even though source A is useful it is not reliable as the language used is exaggerated as she says, “extraordinary silence and emptiness descended upon London, England, Britain.” And “the nation held its breath.” Furthermore some of the evidence could have been forgotten, as it is a 30-year-old memory. This source also shows the opinion of a young woman and at the time other age groups might not have felt the as positive as Joanna Lumley about the Beatles.

Source C is Paul MacCartney describing Beatles concerts; source C backs up the evidence from source A that the Beatles had a positive impact on their fans. In source C Paul MacCartney says “I felt I knew what they were on about” and in source A Joanna Lumley describes the Beatles as “fab four” and goes on to say they were “cool, hip, smart, lippy, charming and funny.” In source C Paul MacCartney says it was never as crazy as they say it was” he said, “they’d only want an autograph and you could chat. Finally Joanna Lumley in source a liked the Beatles so much she says, “it was heaven to be alive.
If I cross reference source c with source b, which show the negative impact the rolling stones, had on their fans I find out that from source C only the Beatles had good relationships with their fans which is supported by Paul MacCartney saying “I felt I knew what they were on about” where as in source B the rolling stones it describes the rolling stones “surrounded by heaving, maniacal, screaming mob.” The teenager goes on to say the rolling stones had “terrified faces.”
However although all three of the sources were reliable all of them are biased. Source C is the opinion if one of a member of the Beatles so obviously he is going to say that the Beatles had a positive impact on their fans and to make it even more biased he say that other performer like “Johnny Ray” had no control over his fans. It is also a 20-year-old memory so information might have been forgotten. Source B where a rolling stones concert is taking place a teenager telling the story is an opinion of a teenager also it is a 26+ old memory so information may have been forgotten. Source A is exaggerated as Joanna Lumley says, “Instead of rush hour an extraordinary silence and emptiness had descended upon London, England, Britain.” She also says “the nation held its breath.”
