Reviews

[Loretta]

Compilation and then some, of articles from Rolling Stone Magazine . Outstanding photographs. A great addition to my Beatles collection. 🥰

[Berry Muhl]

Solid.

George Harrison is easily the most interesting of the Beatles, and aside from Ringo, the most musically accomplished. It's no secret that his songwriting was overshadowed by the McCartney / Lennon team, and that he grew into his powers somewhat late, but he came the furthest in developing his talent, and expanded his philosophy and worldview to a much greater extent than the others.

If you're into biography, this is a good choice. If you're not, then it's a good place to start.

[Rona]

This was an interesting take on the Beatles. In most books, Lennon and McCartney suck all the air out of the room, like they did in real life. Curating a book that focuses on the musical influence of Harrison is a bit of fresh air.

Good for a coffee table book. Good picture collection. The written material is redundant and had little to add to what I knew and understood about this man.

[Simon Sweetman]

Had this for years and only ever skimmed; yes, it's photo-heavy but the text is wonderful, complete interviews from Rolling Stone and a really nice long bio piece as well as some track-insight.

[John Aseff]

Very good insight into the not so quiet Beatle.

[Don Campbell]

Wonderful, never before seen pictures. Specific periods of his life is discuss3d. L9ved it.

[John Russo]
