THE BEATLES IN A HARD DAY’S NIGHT – John Burke
THROWBACK THURSDAY: REVIEWING A BOOK FROM MY SHELF What are The Beatles without their music? You can get a decent idea by reading this book. If you aren’t already familiar with The Beatles, then you should probably just skip this book (and this review).

THE EXES – Pagan Kennedy
One of the things that has always interested me about the writing of fiction and the writing of music, is how similar the two are.

ALL THE SONGS: THE STORY BEHIND EVERY BEATLES RELEASE – Philippe Margotin & Jean-Michel Guesdon
Fabulous. While it seems that most of this information has been available through other sources, this compendium packs it all together and ties it up with the perfect packaging. I absolutely loved getting the little tidbits of information in quick, rapid form. This is not necessarily a book to sit and read cover to cover… Continue reading

A FRIEND IN THE MUSIC BUSINESS: THE ASCAP STORY — Bruce Pollock
Consider it my naïveté, but I always thought of ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers) as a union, and I suppose it is, but then I guess I never imagined one could have a choice in their unions. If you are a stage actor, you either belong to Actors Equity Association, or you… Continue reading
