Review: The Beatles

The Beatles The Beatles by Hunter Davies
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Originally out in the 70s, this book was an authorized biography of the group from the rise of Beatlemania to its height the to end of the touring Beatles, making a complete mandala of this epic pop group. It is quite insightful and peering and this audio edition has updates and additional material from the 1985 edition (after Lennon's death and the definitive end of the group without hope of reunion) and 1996 looking back on solo careers and forward to a second generation. Any serious Beatles fan or historian should or has read this book.
