Wonderful graphical timeline,
By A Customer
This review is from: With the "Beatles": Historic Photographs of Dezo Hoffman (Op91961) (Paperback)
This book takes you for a historic journey through the life of the Beatles. Dezo Hoffmann took more pictures of The Beatles than any other photographer. He was the first professional to photograph them. He alone documented the major events of their career ... their audition at Abbey Road with George Martin, the recording of their first album, their first radio and TV shows. He became their friend and advisor, producing photographs that have become modern-day icons. This book shows for the first time the cream of the most unique photo archive of pop music history. Many of these photographs have never before been printed from their negatives, let alone published. They show The Beatles from before their first record right through all the years of Beatlemania from a viewpoint far closer to the group than any other's. Dezo Hoffmann is one of the greatest photographers of the world of entertainment. Here we see his intimate pictorial biography of one of that world's greatest acts.

Some of the best pictures,
By michel richard - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: With the "Beatles": Historic Photographs of Dezo Hoffman (Op91961) (Paperback)
This book is a collection of very early pictures of the Beatles, some of which we have seen on promotional material. In my opinion several of those pictures are the Beatles' best. It is also very interesting to read Dezo's comments as to where and when the pictures were taken. He was their first official photographer. Great memories, great book!

Paper time machine,
By luizh@mandic.com.br - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: With the "Beatles": Historic Photographs of Dezo Hoffman (Op91961) (Paperback)
if you are a Beatles fan you must see it, and return in a paper time machine to the beginning of the most fantastic line of the music story.

The Beatles young & posed,
By Sheena Carver "dazeerae" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: With the Beatles: The Historic Photographs of Dezo Hoffmann (Paperback)
Dezo Hoffman took the first professional photos ever taken of The Beatles, showing a young George Harrison with a black eye. He'd been in a fight the night before with a Liverpudlian Pete Best fan, angered over the drummer being replaced by Ringo Starr. These are all black & white photos mainly spanning the years of 1962-1966. One gets the sense in the later pictures that The Beatles had tired of the contrived goofing around poses. However, the early photos are great fun and Dezo includes some interesting anecdotes about the band as they rose to the height of fame.
