Product Description

In The Beatles In Mono, Andrew Hickey examines, track by track, the Beatles' work as it was originally created, in mono.

Going through the 2009 The Beatles In Mono box set, he looks at the band's influences, their musical techniques, and the progression of their career from Love Me Do through to Get Back.

As a bonus, this edition also contains appendices giving brief overviews of the stereo-only material the band recorded, as well as 'non-canon' albums like the Anthology series, Live At The BBC and Liverpool Sound Collage.

A splendid time is guaranteed for all!

This book is also available as a paperback.

A No-Brainer 22 Feb 2011

By PScreed - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

I've never written an Amazon review before, but had to put in a good word for this effort. If you own the Beatles Mono Box and are looking for some nice, insightful "liner notes" presented in a listener's guide type format, don't hesitate. Nice work from the perspective of a Brit that grew up with these recordings... the writing is of high quality (as good as any "name" rock crit) and not simply fan-boy gushing... EMI should license this for the inevitable next round of even more definitive re-issues ;)

Extra point because it is really cool to see someone who gets the potential of the Kindle platform for self-publishing actually do something useful with it.

shouldn't have been a surprise, but .. 30 Aug 2011

By Caswallon S. Barrios - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Kindle Edition

Though I have nothing but the greatest respect for the writing of Mr. Hickey (whether it's on the Beach Boys, Comics, or a dozen other things) and the music of the Beatles, I didn't *necessarily* expect to embrace this particular product. MONO? What possible difference could it make? Can something like that occasion a book? Ah, you have no idea! With his judicious analysis - tempered with an obvious Joy in the music - you will hear these songs, many of which are hardwired on the public CNS at this point, with new ears. I was personally impressed by his treatment of the Magical Mystery Tour LP, perhaps the most *balanced* Beatles document in terms of showing the four at the peak of their powers. Fine stuff.

Relive your discovery of the dept of the Beatles again. 27 April 2012

By Oliver townshend - Published on Amazon.com

Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase

I remember how I felt when I discovered that Beatles songs had levels of meanings, and a depth of musical talent that raised them above your average pop song. Reading Andrew Hickey's exhaustive analysis of the Beatles Songs in Mono I have relived the depth and beauty I found, and get to appreciate it at an even higher level. Sadly I only have the Beatles in Stereo, but I am determined to buy the Beatles in Mono, purely because of the enthusiasm this book has inspired.

Andrew has an excellent ear for music, and combined with his extensive Beatles knowledge, even the simplest song can be appreciated, and you will come away from this with a greater appreciation of the Beatles and their history.

(What's this?)

The man has endured decades of mockery for being, in a band with two flamboyant 19 geniuses and a third singer-songwriter who was capable of moments of brilliance, the non-writing down-to-earth member. &quote;
