Amazon.co.uk Review
There are, by now, approximately a thousand books on The Beatles in print, though few merit much serious attention. However, read in conjunction with Mark Lewisohn's The Complete Beatles Chronicle, Bill Harry's newly revised Beatles Encyclopaedia provides the perfect companion to the music.
There are, by now, approximately a thousand books on The Beatles in print, though few merit much serious attention. However, read in conjunction with Mark Lewisohn's The Complete Beatles Chronicle, Bill Harry's newly revised Beatles Encyclopaedia provides the perfect companion to the music.
As a teenage friend of John Lennon in Liverpool and the founder of Mersey Beat magazine--which gave The Beatles some of their first mentions in print--Harry has called upon a lifetime of Beatles' knowledge to furnish this 1,198 page book, making it one of the few indispensable books on that most influential of all rock'n'roll bands. The Beatles Encyclopaedia lists every song, gig and person connected with the Fab Four during their career together; and although not intended as a book to sit down and read from cover to cover, once you start dipping in, you'll just keep on going. Here are all the contenders for "fifth Beatle", the chart positions for those unforgettable singles, together with details of all their seismic albums; and the entries are peppered throughout with priceless nuggets of Beatle trivia: from the first time John, Paul, George and Ringo played together on disc (15 October 1960), to the last words uttered by the Beatles to a paying audience (28 August 1966).
From the start they truly were unique--and Harry quotes Mersey Beat columnist Bob Wooler, who recognised the fact as far back as 1961: "... the fantastic Beatles. I don't think anything like them will happen again." --Patrick Humphries
