I read this book quite a while ago, but have had another flick through before I lend it to a friend. I found this to be one of the more enjoyable Beatles’ books, and the short, varying chapters makes it easy to read, despite it being a pretty hefty volume.
Although Brown seemingly read every single book ever written that references a Beatle, he gives a special mention to @Joe ‘s book in his sources:
Particularly useful have been two works dealing with more specialist aspects of The Beatles: You Never Give Me Your Money : The Battle for the Soul of The Beatles by Peter Doggett, a wonderfully clear survey of their complicated finances; and Riding So High: The Beatles and Drugs by Joe Goodden, an equally clear survey of their equally complicated drug lives.
The author also gives this website a glowing reference:
The Beatles Bible strikes me as the single best source of information on all aspects of the Beatles: often, after I had patted myself on the back for discovering some particularly arcane fact, I found to my irritation that it had been in The Beatles Bible all along.
In case it isn’t said often enough, thank you, @Joe for your tireless work on this site. It’s a joy to be a (very small) part of it.
The following people thank kelicopter for this post:
