What’s your favourite Beatles ‘moment’? A lyric? A chord sequence? A photo? For me it’s the unbridled joy of their 1964 appearance on The Morecambe and Wise Show

Rarely do you get a Beatles-related book that raises the bar as much as this one. It effortlessly blurs the lines between thoroughly researched documentation and fascinating, entertaining cultural history. A must-have document that will be referred to for years. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
