The Beatles

The Beatles knew they were special. Liverpool and hamburg were first to recognize the fact, Brian Epstein and George Martin followed, then the entire country and, finally, the world.

They became synonymous with the "Swinging Sixties" but their iconic reach extended far beyond the realms of music and fashion. They didn't span the decade; they defined it. A pop sensation became a cultural phenomenon.

Sixty years on, Beatles music remains as fresh, vibrant and innovative as the day it was pressed, a peerless legacy for existing fans to revisit and new ones to discover.

This book comprehensively charts the heady days of when they were Fab.
