50 years after the Beatles broke up, these Fab Four books have new stories to tell

In the first half of this year, only two bands sold at least one million album units: the Korean boy band BTS and a British foursome that has had three top ten albums, including a Billboard No. 1, in the last three years … even though they broke up 50 years ago.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, the Beatles. They remain the one band with endless staying power and an audience insatiable for more, more, more. This year marks a half-century since the band parted ways – yet paperback writers continue cranking out book after book.

The eclectic roster for 2020 includes “The Beatles on Screen: From Pop Stars to Musicians,” “The Beatles: Sweden and Denmark 1963-1970 (Unseen Nordic Archives),” “John Lennon, Yoko Ono and the Year Canada Was Cool,” “The Greatest Mystery of the Beatles: Critical Thinking on: Paul is Dead,” “The Beatles Finally Let It Be,” and “After Abbey Road: The Solo Hits of The Beatles.” (As well as a book tie-in to Peter Jackson’s rescheduled-to-2021 “The Beatles: Get Back” film, the approaching 40th anniversary of John Lennon’s murder promises another spate of books, such as James Patterson’s “The Last Days of John Lennon.”)
