This is not merely a biography of The Beatles but a unique memoir by a Liverpool-born author who knew John, Paul, George and Ringo as friends throughout the height of their fame. As The Beatles' Press Officer, he worked within the group's closest circle for six breakneck years during the Beatlemania era of the Sixties. Few were closer to The Beatles than Tony Barrow, and in this highly acclaimed book, he holds a mirror up to the Fab Four and offers his own insider's perspective on that four-way dynamic that spawned the greatest pop group the world has ever seen.
Review:
''Tony Barrow... writes well and with authority, and John, Paul, George, Ringo & Me will be an invaluable source for all Beatles brains' Sunday Times, Hunter Davies, The Beatles' only authorised biographer 'His detailed account of their final world tour of 1966 - Japanese riots, literally being kicked out of the Philippines, Lennon's tears before facing the American press over his 'bigger than Jesus' comment - genuinely takes the reader deep into the band's world' Q Magazine 'This fab new book... [is]... a vividly personal account of the world's largest band by one of their closest allies.' Uncut'
Author Biography:
Tony Barrow, who coined the phrase the Fab Four and whose sleeve notes adorned some of The Beatles' biggest-selling albums, was the band's press officer from 1962-68. He is the only surviving professional writer who witnessed Beatlemania from the inside.
