Having only recently finished the mammoth book , All those years, by Mark Lewisohn (even the notes at the end were interesting ) so i held back from reading this Beatles, early years magazine. I've been very impressed how detailed it is giving insights to the Quarrymen , and a few pages on Rory Storm . I think it takes up to Shea Stadium. As i say i've only just started reading this and since we have a Rory Storm topic thought it would be of interest quite a few of you on this forum . Worth getting pop pickers. www.vintagerockmag.com/2017/03/beatles-early-years-collectors-edition/

Thank you for the information. It's been on sale in the shops for a few months, check out WHSmiths . Nice article on Rory Storm and about to read about Brian Epstein. It's in chronological order. Why when other Liverpool bands made the step up and The Hurricanes were left behind, i think boils down to not writing their own material. They seemed quite content to cover Rock'n'roll standards, like a shark , you've got to keep moving.

I've just finished this cracking magazine, it was much better than i expected , all the chapters were well written , i particularly liked the extra info on Hard Days Night and Help . What have you made of it Pothos? I'm assuming yours has arrived in the post by now. I'll now start reading the book that came with the Sgt Pepper package. I may get the Hunter Davies official Beatles book too.

The section on the Decca fiasco was fascinating.
