The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, the Who, and numerous other groups put Britain at the center of the modern musical map. Please Please Me offers an insider's view of the British pop-music recording industry during the seminal period of 1956 to 1968, based on personal recollections, contemporary accounts, and all relevant data that situate this scene in the economic, political, and social context of postwar Britain. Author Gordon Thompson weaves issues of class, age, professional status, gender, and ethnicity into his narrative, beginning with the rise of British beat groups and the emergence of teenagers as consumers in postwar Britain, and moving into the competition between performers and the recording industry for control over the music. He interviews musicians, songwriters, music directors, and producers and engineers who worked with the best-known performers of the era. Drawing his interpretation of the processes at work during this musical revolution into a wider context, Thompson unravels the musical change and innovation of the time with an eye on understanding what traces individuals leave in the musical and recording process.

Despite the high quality of the Beatles Please Please Me and With The Beatles albums, people tend to overlook these records because of the brilliance of the Beatles later groundbreaking albums such as Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper, The White Album and Abbey Road. However, the group's earlier releases are full of exciting vocal and instrumental performances that revitalized pop and rock music. These 1963 albums, along with their preceding and associated singles, defined Beatlemania with songs such as "Please Please Me," "From Me To You," "I Saw Her Standing There," "She Loves You," "I Want To Hold Your Hand," "It Won't Be Long" and "All My Loving"-all perfect examples of tuneful rock songs written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney. In addition, the Beatles early albums contained great cover versions of other artists songs such as "Twist And Shout," "Baby It's You," "Anna," "Roll Over Beethoven," "Please Mr. Postman" and "Money." In America, these songs were issued on the Vee-Jay album Introducing The Beatles and the Capitol album Meet The Beatles! The Beatles Please Please Me to With The Beatles is the seventh installment in Bruce Spizer's Beatles Album Series. The book covers the group's albums and singles released from October 1962 through February 1964 from British, American and Canadian perspectives, plus chapters on the Decca audition and the EMI artists test session. There are also chapters on the recording sessions and album covers, as well as on the news, music and films of the era to place these albums in their proper context. And, like all of the other books in the series, there are dozens of fan recollections on the pandemonium generating by these recordings. With the 60th anniversary of Beatlemania approaching, this book is the perfect way to relive and/or learn about those exciting days.

Given the phenomenal fame and commercial success that the Beatles knew for the entire course of their familiar career, their music per se has received surprisingly little detailed attention. Not all of their cultural influence can be traced to long hair and flashy clothing; the Beatles had numerous fresh ideas about melody, harmony, counterpoint, rhythm, form, colors, and textures. Or consider how much new ground was broken by their lyrics alone--both the themes and imagery of the Beatles' poetry are key parts of what made (and still makes) this group so important, so popular, and so imitated. This book is a comprehensive chronological study of every aspect of the Fab Four's musical life--including full examinations of composition, performance practice, recording, and historical context--during their transcendent late period (1966-1970). Rich, authoritative interpretations are interwoven through a documentary study of many thousands of audio, print, and other sources.

In June 1989, Paul Du Noyer was contacted by Paul McCartney's office in London and asked to interview the star as they had met once before and enjoyed a good raport. In the years that followed, Paul Du Noyer continued to meet, interview and work for Paul McCartney on a regular basis, producing magazine articles, tour programmes, album liner notes, press materials and website editorial. It's likely that Du Noyer has spent more hours in formal, recorded conversation with McCartney than any other writer. Conversations with McCartney is the culmination of Du Noyer's long association with McCartney and his music. It draws from their interview sessions across 35 years, coupling McCartney's own, candid thoughts with his observations and analysis.

Lifelong fans and interested newcomers will love this stunning biography of Duran Duran by the bestselling author of Gold Dust Woman and Hammer of the Gods. In Please Please Tell Me Now, bestselling rock biographer Stephen Davis tells the story of Duran Duran, the quintessential band of the 1980s. Their pretty boy looks made them the stars of fledgling MTV, but it was their brilliant musicianship that led to a string of number one hits. By the end of the decade, they had sold 60 million albums; today, they've sold over 100 million albums--and counting. Davis traces their roots to the austere 1970s British malaise that spawned both the Sex Pistols and Duran Duran--two seemingly opposite music extremes. Handsome, British, and young, it was Duran Duran that headlined Live Aid, not Bob Dylan or Led Zeppelin. The band moved in the most glamorous circles: Nick Rhodes became close with Andy Warhol, Simon LeBon with Princess Diana, and John Taylor dated quintessential British bad girl Amanda De Cadanet. With timeless hits like "Hungry Like the Wolf," "Girls on Film," "Rio," "Save a Prayer," and the bestselling James Bond theme in the series' history, "A View to Kill," Duran Duran has cemented its legacy in the pop pantheon--and with a new album and a worldwide tour on the way, they show no signs of slowing down anytime soon. Featuring exclusive interviews with the band and never-before-published photos from personal archives, Please Please Tell Me Now offers a definitive account of one of the last untold sagas in rock and roll history--a treat for diehard fans, new admirers, and music lovers of any age.

Tune In is the first volume of All These Years—a highly-anticipated, groundbreaking biographical trilogy by the world's leading Beatles historian. Mark Lewisohn uses his unprecedented archival access and hundreds of new interviews to construct the full story of the lives and work of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Ten years in the making, Tune In takes the Beatles from before their childhoods through the final hour of 1962—when, with breakthrough success just days away, they stand on the cusp of a whole new kind of fame and celebrity. They’ve one hit record ("Love Me Do") behind them and the next ("Please Please Me") primed for release, their first album session is booked, and America is clear on the horizon. This is the lesser-known Beatles story—the pre-Fab years of Liverpool and Hamburg—and in many respects the most absorbing and incredible period of them all. Here is the complete and true account of their family lives, childhoods, teenage years and their infatuation with American music, here is the riveting narrative of their unforgettable days and nights in the Cavern Club, their laughs, larks and adventures when they could move about freely, before fame closed in. For those who’ve never read a Beatles book before, this is the place to discover the young men behind the icons. For those who think they know John, Paul, George, and Ringo, it’s time to press the Reset button and tune into the real story, the lasting word.

We Live in The Golden Age of Beatles Music. The music of the world's greatest rock band did not end in 1970 with their last studio album, or in 1996 with "The Anthology" series. In reality, there is new material coming out on an almost daily basis, as legacy musicians pick up on the root influences of their own generation; as jazz and swing musicians shift their focus from the standards of the 30s and 40s to the popular favorites of their own time; and, as twenty-first century pop artists unearth The Beatles as though it is their own private discovery. The wealth of cover versions is so immense that they cannot be taken on in one volume. Here are the songs from the first Beatles album and a look at the artists who have made them their own. Welcome to the unveiling of the great, the unknown and the unexpectedly inspired musicians creating today's new and totally gear Beatle music.
