The Beatles - The Stories Behind the Songs 1967-70 by Steve Turner (9781742117621)

Description - The Beatles - The Stories Behind the Songs 1967-70 by Steve Turner

From 1966 onwards, the Beatles didn't seem to consider any subjects as inappropriate. At least half the songs on Revolver were nothing to do with love, and their primary inspiration was no longer the work of other artists. They grabbed song ideas from overheard conversations, anecdotes, newspaper headlines, esoteric books, posters, and dreams. Where is Penny Lane? What was the inspiration for 'Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds'? Steve Turner shatters many well-worn myths and adds a new dimension to the Fab Four's rich legacy by investigating the events immortalised in the Beatles' music and now occupying a special niche in popular culture's collective imagination.
