At 19, British photographer David Magnus was invited to shoot a still relatively unknown pop group called The Beatles during a concert at a Buckinghamshire private school. Behind the scenes, The Beatles invited friends like Mick Jagger, seen here with John Lennon"Nobody expected that these four talented lads from Liverpool would go on for what is now 54 years," Magnus, now 72, told CNN in an email. Fifty years later, the public can see Magnus' behind-the-scenes photos from that weekend at his new exhibition, "The Beatles Unseen: Photographs by David Magnus," at London's Proud Chelsea gallery. He was struck to see a large crowd already gathered, "the majority of whom were not even born when The Beatles were making their music." "The Beatles Unseen: Photographs by David Magnus" is on at Proud Chelsea in London until May 14, 2017.
