A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

As dazzling as the decade they dominated. The Beatles almost single-handedly created pop music as we know it. Today, their songs are cited as seminal influences by stars like Oasis, Blur and Kula Shaker. Eloquently giving voice to their time, The Beatles quite simply chang-ed the world. Fully updated to include material from The Beatles Live at the BBC and the Anthology series, this acclaimed book goes back to the heart of The Beatles - their records. Drawing on a unique resource of know-ledge and experience to 'read' their 241 tracks - chronologically from their first amateur efforts in 1957 to 'Real Love', their final 'reunion' recording in 1995 - Ian MacDonald has created an engrossing classic of popular critisism in which the extraordinary songs of The Beatles remain a central and continually surprising presence.

Revue de presse

"His essays are a brilliant summation of the cultural sea change that the Beatles benefitted from and helped to create, and it also contains a clear-headed and unsentimental review of every song they recorded." (Paul Hanley The Big Issue)
