by Hunter Davis, John Telfer (Narrator)

Author: Hunter Davies Reader: John Telfer Running Time: 18hrs 3min Publisher: Chivers Ltd Number of CDs: 14. There's only one book that ever truly got inside the Beatles and this is it... During 1967 and 1968 Hunter Davies spent eighteen months with the Beatles at the peak of their powers as they defined a generation and rewrote popular music. As their only ever authorised biographer he had unparalleled access - not just to John, Paul, George and Ringo but to friends, family and colleagues. He collected a wealth of intimate and revealing material that makes this the classic Beatles book - the one all other biographers look to. Hunter Davies remained close with the band and as such has had access to more information over the years. This 40th anniversary edition contains new material which has never been revealed before, from the author's archives and from the Beatles themselves, that will bring new insights to their legend.

[Norma · Rating 5 out of 5]

Interesting biog of the early years of life, fame and eventually fortune of the Fab Four. We'll written and essential reading for Beatles fans. Not what I expected, but then I was never a fan. Excellent narration and insightful story.

None the worse for being authorised.

I read this 40 years ago and it was great. Listening to it now it's a bit rough and really it's just too basic, like an intro to basic Beatles facts.
