At 21 years young, college art student Stuart Sutcliffe dies in the arms of his fiancé Astrid Kircherr on his way to the hospital. Since his death in 1962 it's been a mystery as to how a spry man like Stuart can succumb to a brain hemorrhage in Hamburg, Germany. But more than that, his story is one that's often overlooked and even forgotten in The Beatles lore. As best friend to John Lennon, and second bass player in the group, he's more than just a kid that once was apart of the most famous band of all time. Join me today to learn about who Stuart was and how tragedy befell him.
