Beatles Books & Reviews

I have always felt that one of the major differences between the Beatles and their contemporaries was the quality of production and the freedom in studio to explore their creativity and be collaborative made possible by George Martin and a young yet highly skilled staff of Abbey Road engineers including Ken Scott, Geoff Emetic, and Alan Parsons.

While vacationing with a friend in the autumn of 2012 we found ourselves, as we often do, in a bookstore. Browsing absentmindedly I came across a new Beatles book. My excitement grew as I realized it was a book dedicated to John Lennon's handwritten notes and letters edited by Hunter Davies. I rushed to the cashier to buy it without even looking at the price. There are some things that must be had.
