GET BACK: Although only modest numbers of fans turned out Tuesday after midnight when the new “Beatles Anthology” album went on sale (F1), the two-disc set became a top seller later in the day. . . . “Nothing’s even touching it,” said John Book, manager of Tower Records in Woodland Hills and a self-described Beatles “fanatic.”

I ME MINE: Engineer George Harrison never thought his name would become well known. . . . Nowadays, the North Hollywood retiree is used to being teased about his Beatle moniker. He’s also fond of saying he has something else in common with the famous guitarist: “Neither of us can sing.” Ouch.

I WANT TO TELL YOU: Dave Haber, above, can still recall watching the Fab Four on television as a child in 1964. Today, the 40-year-old West Hills resident operates a World Wide Web site devoted to the Liverpool lads. . . . “I get to share my hobby with the world,” he said of his cyberspace archive. “That’s the pleasure I get out of it.” . . . Haber’s site is at https://www.primenet.com/ ~dhaber/beatles.html

PENNY LANE: Twenty-five years after it opened, Penny Lane, a group home in North Hills for emotionally disturbed children, has grown into nine separate centers housing more than 100 kids throughout the Valley. . . . Founder Ivelise Markovits said she named it after the Beatles’ 1967 ode to a Liverpool street because “it has that nice, uplifting kind of feeling.”

TWO OF US: Jeffrey and Denise Leonard also gave their business a name with a Beatles connection. The Van Nuys couple run a florist shop called Abbey Rose, a takeoff on the Beatles’ best-selling album, “Abbey Road.” But many customers don’t get it. . . . “Some of ‘em think my wife’s name is Abbey,” Jeffrey Leonard said.
