You want to know what the Beatles did and when? This is the only book to get.

This book is invaluable for gaining a day to day view of the band. All you really need is this book, Revolution in the Head, and the Anthology book to get a clear and accurate picture of the Fab 4.
I got this book as a reference volume. As I got deeply into Bob Spitz' biography, I referred to it often during the reading. A really well done overview day-by-day style without personal dramas.
I'm a Beatles fan, but I'm not a "I have to know what every Beatle was doing at every moment of his life" fan.
A great expansion of Beatle Sessions.
