The incredible backstories, cosmic coincidences, and colorful characters who loved, supported, exploited, and cheated the Beatles
The Beatles: Fab but True examines 16 discrete stories about the Beatles that range from the merely unreal to the cosmically coincidental. Unlike the countless other Beatles books that have been written over the decades, The Beatles: Fab but True does a deep dive on some of the lesser-known—but more remarkable—aspects of the lives and career of the Fab Four and their numerous and colorful associates and colleagues.
Readers will learn:
• How a lucky bet on a longshot racehorse helped birth the Beatles
• How a drum salesman and a partially disabled signwriter created the enduring Beatles logo
• How Paul McCartney conjured the fictional name Eleanor Rigby in 1966, only later to find that the real one lay buried beneath his feet
• How the Beatles battled racial segregation in the South and played the first integrated concert at the Gator Bowl
• Why the Beatles were labeled as “hustlers” by the Rolling Stones
• How an innocent musical homage to Chuck Berry got John Lennon entangled with a music industry mobster
This book tells these and many other remarkable stories in a quick-reading, fun, and authoritatively researched book.
