This biography of the Beatles' music offers an inside account of how their music was created, how it evolved over time, what the band said and did inside the studio while recording it, and what the Beatles themselves thought about their songs. In 1993, Mark Hertsgaard gained access to the Beatles' archive at Abbey Road Studios - more than 400 hours of recordings, rough drafts of songs, studio backchat and previously unreleased material. Part survey, part listener's guide, this book offers an account of the people, events and artistic influences that shaped the Beatles' music.
