Title: Waste of Time, Money
Review: If you are a Beatles fan, find a better book. I'd give this Zero Stars if it was possible. This worthless tome spews all sorts of fantasy that seems to have been made up as it was written. The almost surreal stretches of imagination to connect a Beatle song to some obscure record are preposterous to the point of being laughable! The purported "secrets" mentioned in the publisher's blurb seem to have no basis in fact either, so please find a more worthwhile book if you have any interest in the Beatles' music. A good place to find solid information is Mark Lewisohn's "The Beatles: Recording Sessions," which are the Abbey Road studio notes taken by listening to the actual recording session tapes! There are few minor errors there, too, but nothing near the egregious errors/fantasy in this book! Save your money!
