"AN INVALUABLE REFERENCE; A
HANDY SOURCEBOOK FOR TRACKING DOWN RARE, UNRELEASED MATERIAL."
Rolling Stone
"COMPELLING...SUCCEEDS BOTH
AS NARRATIVE AND REFERENCE."
The Washington Post
"A treasure to relish and savor," this definitive reference chronicles five decades of Beatles music - from the first recordings of The Quarry Men and The Silver Beatles to such groundbreaking releases as Revolver and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, to The Beatles' solo careers and the work of The Plastic Ono Band, Wings, The Traveling Wilburys, and Ringo Starr and His All-Starr Band. Through nearly a dozen chronologies, discographies, and alphabetical lists, The Beatles catalogs every Beatles' single, EP, LP, and CD, including live recordings, unreleased songs, bootlegs, special releases, alternate versions, and even little-known solo contributions to the music of performers such as Carly Simon, David Bowie, Elton John, Elvis Costello, The Beach Boys, James Taylor, Stephen Stills, Eric Clapton, and many others.
