    Hello Katie! My most recent Beatles related book is a two volume set in a box called Paul McCartney-The Lyrics:
    A-K 'n L-Z. He includes the lyrics 'n background stories 'n personal remembrances for each song includin' his solo work, Wings 'n The Beatles. Its a phenomenal book...but I was mistaken thinkin' it was his complete catalog. I looked up Little Lamb Dragonfly for the background information 'n it was not included. Love that song!

    Wow, these vintage books are really one of the best things to be found. I really need to start looking for them whenever I go looking for vintage records (and start reading more altogether). Of course, the new ones are great too, but what makes the vintage so cool was mostly the fact that they were written while The Beatles were at their peak. Among those I have the Anthology, which was a present from my best friend. Please keep on posting your videos!

    @robertbanden8117 Рік тому +1

    Very impressive book collection. You're absolutely right that some of the stories in those vintage books are tall tales. In fact, the Beatles finally authorized the Anthology project (film, records & book) in order to set the record straight. It was designed to be their story in their own words, so to speak. You are also correct in saying that Larry Kane was a journalist. He did tons of interviews on their North American Tours in 1964-65. A record company called Cicadelic Records in Canada released a bunch of interview discs in the 80's which included many of these interviews; some of which are very entertaining. Others border on the ridiculous. At one point he asks Paul if he is going to secretly meet up with Jane Asher while he's in America so the two of them can get married! Any road, I look forward to Part Two as I really enjoy your videos. Have a great week.😎

      I forgot to mention one other item yesterday. Once again you are spot on with detecting a certain bias in that author's book. I have also encountered similar biases in some of the books I have read. In fact, one author (I can't remember his name) went so far as to state that George and Ringo were not essential to the Beatles and could have been replaced by any musicians. I totally disagree. The Beatles were those four individuals who each made their own contribution to the whole. Paul was also sensitive to writers who seemed to favor John over himself. He made mention of this in several interviews over the years. At one point, he tried to credit songs such as Yesterday to McCartney/Lennon as opposed to Lennon/McCartney since John had little or no input to the song nor did he or any of the other Beatles appear on it. But neither John nor Yoko (as the caretaker of John's work) would agree. John and Paul had made an agreement very early in their songwriting career that all Beatles originals would be credited to Lennon/McCartney. Even Give Peace A Chance had this credit even though Paul had nothing to do with the writing or performing. Sorry for going on so long but I wanted to share that with you. As you come across other Beatles books you are likely to find similar biases. Thanks for reading this.😊

    I’ve had “The Beatle Book” in my possession for most of my life. It belonged to one of my older sisters and it was left behind when she went off to college and I claimed it for my own as well as her Beatles bubblegum cards - she just wasn’t sentimental or nostalgic about things like that. We also had a Beatles Milton Bradley “Flip Your Wig” board game which I never actually played and is long gone unfortunately… I have that “Images Of The Beatles” book, as well as the Philip Norman Paul McCartney biography, which I think is pretty good. That author wrote a book on the Beatles called “Shout” and a biography on John Lennon - both of which painted a pretty negative picture of Paul, so it was surprising that his McCartney book was fairly sympathetic. It almost seems as if he were trying to make amends to Paul for his previous stance.. enjoyed the video, you have an impressive collection!
