      IT MIGHT HAVE been the first rock and roll tour of any real consequence. Today, if it’s remembered at all, it’s usually for the body count left in its wake. But Bill Wyman recalls the Rolling Stones’ 1969 American tour for a different reason. “In 196

      ‘It Was A Breaking Down Of Racial Barriers Like Never Before’: Why Brit-funk Matters

      Apr 2, 2021

      In the mid-Seventies, deep in Soho’s sleazy underbelly, down a staircase and into a dodgy basement club called Crackers, London was bouncing to the ridiculously upbeat combination of funk, soul, jazz and hints of reggae and pop. At the time, this ble

      How Scottish Indy Put Fun Back In My Life

      There’s a famous quote by Lenin, that revolutions cannot stand still; they have to move forward. I’m guessing he wasn’t talking about the British punk explosion, but it’s applicable. There was a period of time around 1978—when that initial Sex Pistol

      It is actually a coffee table book - compilation of photographs taken by reports over the time. All photographs are from Daily Mail Archives.

      On an unrelated note, more I read about Beatles, more I dislike Yoko. I am unable to put my finger on it though.
    • 4/5
      The photographs are wonderful but the substance behind them just isn't there in all the chapters. The first chapter rushes to get the group together and the post band chapter rushes through the last thirty years. The best chapters are probably the ones up through 1967 with the death of Epstein. The band members clearly overworked themselves. It was sad to see the break-up in the making.

      Lovely photography, fabulous good fun!
    • 4/5
      This is an excellent 378 page B&W photo essay of the Beatles by the Daily Mail. It covers the years 1972 - 2002 (most of the 20th Century).....

      The Beatles are covered not only as a group but as individuals with and without their respective families......

      Glimpses that we would never have seen otherwise, unless we were in the U.K.

    • 4/5
      This is a really interesting book which just states facts and not 'hype'. The photos are excellent with many hitherto unseen. If you want to know what 'happened' with the Beatles then this is the one for you.

      a lot to go through, but i g ave it a good walk and its very cool. imagine, there's this many pictures in the unseen archives.. they were truly a force..
