63 pages. Hardback book in a slipcase. Book dimensions: 29 cms x 1.6 cms x 25.1 cms. From the back of the slipcase: The Beatles caused revolution after revolution. Not content with changing the face of youth & popular culture, they also transformed the face of popular music, launching it into their own, original stratosphere, using electronica, Eastern influences, & some darn fine rock'n'roll. The Story of The Beatles tells the story of the Fab Four as never before. It shows in beautiful photographs & rare facsimile documents the group's journey from the backstreets of Liverpool & Hamburg to their sell-out concerts in Shea Stadium & their quest for musical perfection. In 1964 half the population of the USA watched the boys play live on The Ed Sullivan Show & 400 million TV viewers saw them record All You Need Is Love in 1967. They were awarded MBEs by Queen Elizabeth II, they jammed with Elvis & sold millions of records all over the world. The Story of The Beatles takes you as close as you can get to that wild ride that defined a decade and changed the world... Facsimile memorabilia included with this book: • Koschmider contract for Hamburg gigs, 1960. • Signed flyer for Parlophone Records, 1963. • Hand-written set list, 1963. • Poster for The Beatles and Roy Orbison, 1963. • Hand-written USA tour itinerary, 1964. • Poster from New Zealand tour, 1964. • Milwaukee Programme cover, 1964. • Signed postcard from set of Help!, 1965. • Ticket from Manila Rizal Memorial Football Stadium concert, 1966. • Invitation to Magical Mystery Tour party, 1967. • And more.
