Description

Whether due to their charisma, musical genius or ability to evolve from 1950s rock 'n' roll to psychedelic pop, The Beatles were - are - probably the most famous and successful band in the world, and despite breaking up 40 years ago, their popularity remains rock solid, with fans ever-thirsty for new celebrations of their work. Following on from the successful "Led Zeppelin Revealed" and "Pink Floyd Revealed", this new, glossy, visually stimulating coffee-table book quenches this thirst. Organized by year, this brilliant book covers all the major events in their career accompanied by revealing and evocative images.

About the Author

Paul Du Noyer began his career on the New Musical Express, went on to edit Q and to found Mojo. He also helped to launch Heat and several music websites. As well as editing several rock reference books, he is the author of We All Shine On, about the solo music of John Lennon, and Wondrous Place, a history of the Liverpool music scene. He is nowadays a contributing editor of The Word. Hugh Fielder can remember the 1960s even though he was there. He can remember the 1970s and 1980s because he was at Sounds magazine (RIP) and the 1990s because he was editor of Tower Records' TOP magazine. He has shared a spliff with Bob Marley, a glass of wine with David Gilmour, a pint with Robert Plant, a cup of tea with Keith Richards and a frosty stare with Axl Rose. He has watched Mike Oldfield strip naked in front of him and Bobby Womack fall asleep while he was interviewing him.@font-face { font-family: "Times New Roman";}p.MsoNormal, li.MsoNormal, div.MsoNormal { margin: 0cm 0cm 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman"; color: black; }table.MsoNormalTable { font-size: 10pt; font-family: Courier; }div.Section1 { page: Sectio
