The Beatles Lyrics: The Stories Behind the Music, Including the Handwritten Drafts of More Than 100 Classic Beatles Songs
Editat de Hunter Daviesen Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 oct 2015
For the Beatles, writing songs was a process that could happen anytime -- songs we all know by heart often began as a scribble on the back of an envelope or on hotel stationery. These original documents have ended up scattered across the world at museums and universities and with collectors and friends. Many have never been published before. More than 100 songs and lyrics are reproduced in THE BEATLES LYRICS, providing Hunter Davies a unique platform to tell the story of the music.
The intimacy of these reproductions -- there are sections crossed out and rewritten, and words tossed into the final recordings that were never written down -- ensures that THE BEATLES LYRICS will be a treasure for musicians, scholars, and fans everywhere.

Recenzii
"Rich
with
insider
authenticity.
To
paraphrase
Walt
Whitman,
Mr.
Davies
was
the
man,
he
suffered,
he
was
there....
The
book
itself-with
Mr.
Davies's
expert
guidance-gives
us
a
glimpse
into
genius.
No
better
monument
could
mark
the
50th
anniversary
of
the
Beatles
arrival
in
America,
nothing,
that
is,
short
of
coming
up
with
a
hitherto
lost
scrap
of
paper
with
a
Beatles
lyric
on
it,
wittily
doodled
on."—Alexander
Theroux,

Street
