Welcome to Litsy!

We saw this at the bookstore a few weeks ago and Jace wouldn‘t stop talking about so I finally had to order it from Amazon. At least he has good taste! A nice mini Beatles biography and a great way to introduce them to children. 5⭐️ #Jace #Beatles #biography #littlegoldenbook

Lovely book. Background information from Paul McCartney on the context of these pictures he took. Great photographs in a very exciting time for The Beatles.

I love The Beatles. They were my first musical hyperfocus. I listened to the albums on repeat and read every biography I could put my hands on. But I loathe the song Yellow Submarine. It's such an awful ear worm!

Is it cheating to use the same book for two months? 😂

This book is packed with information and I‘m taking my time and savoring it, trying to absorb the cultural moment that Gould is describing. It requires my full attention (meaning I‘m not reading it in quick hits throughout the week) as it combines history, sociology, psychology, musicology, biography, and cultural analysis. Incredibly written and, at times, hilarious. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Enjoyed the behind the scene stories

I love George Harrison‘s songs. He‘s really romantic. His writing is so good that I wish the book was longer, but at the same time is still felt complete. I found deep tracks that I didn‘t know and liked. He has photos of his notes for his songs with the original writing. I highly reccomend it!

Is the goal of a good biography to be objective? Is that even possible? Of course Norman wrote this after John‘s death, so he was dependent on interviews with people who knew him and his journals. Yoko refused to endorse this book because she said the author was “too mean” to John. Maybe that‘s true and he chose to slant it that way, or maybe based on some of John‘s actions, especially towards women, he was just trying to tell the truth. 🎶/5
