I have almost no recollection of this book other than reading it on the beach during Spring Break of 8th grade and loving it... So I guess that's something? (

This book is amazing. The way it is written, split up, and the information it contains is totally worth the time reading. It made me feel like I was there observing them in the studios, on tour, and everything. When I finished, I was sad that the journey had ended. (

Somewhere inside London's Abbey Road studios, hidden behind an unmarked, triple-locked, police-alarmed door, are some of the most valuable artifacts of twentieth-century music: the raw tapes of every recording session in the nearly eight-year studio career of the Beatles.
