A Hard Day's Write: The Stories Behind Every Beatles Song | Steve Turner
4 posts | 7 read | 1 to read
MUSICAL SCORES, LYRICS & LIBRETTI. Who was 'just seventeen' and made Paul's heart go 'boom'? Was there really an Eleanor Rigby? Where's Penny Lane? In "A Hard Day's Write", Steve Turner shatters many well-worn myths and adds a new dimension to the Fab Four's rich legacy by investigating the events immortalised in The Beatles' music and now occupying a special niche in popular culture's collective imagination.

This book also has high high quality photos and the band member‘s opinions on their own songs. I was unaware of how many beatles songs were cover versions. I noticed that Lennon is overly critical of his own songs on average. My dad and sister also loved this book so much that we all have our own copy.

This is a deep dive into the stories behind every Beatles song, even the really weird and obscure ones.

I found this book engrossing. I loved especially reading the mini interviews with people like the Lucy from "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" and other figures in the well-known Beatles history that have sort of faded from standard conversations about the songs.

A day late for #SeasonsReadings2016 #BooksWithPictures but I couldn't pass posting about this book about my favorite band in the world. It's a must read for all Beatlemaniacs. I loved reading the stories for the inspiration for each and every song and it also has lots of pictures ❤️
