The Beatles are arguably, the greatest band of the rock and roll era and perhaps of all time. They struggled to get started,
having several personnel changes and name changes over the first two or three years. Then, in 1963, everything clicked and the
Beatles became known all over England.

The next year, in 1964, they came to America and conquered this country. Thus began the British Invasion.

Everyone knows who the Beatles are, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. Sadly, two of them have left us at this point,
but the remaining two (Paul and Ringo) continue to create and perform music well into their Seventies.

You may think you know everything there is to know about the Beatles, but I'd wager there are a few points in this book that you have not heard before.
The group is taken from their growing up years, through the creation of the band and to their eventual breakup.

Come with me for a walk down memory lane as I review the life of the band, The Beatles and especially, the music that they produced.
We'll visit each of their hits and find out how they came to be written or how they were recorded; and discuss any trivia that might
be associated with the music. This book is about the band but even more importantly, it's about the music.
This series is my way of honoring the people that have brought so much joy to our lives over the years.
