When Ian MacDonald wrote the first edition of this opus in 1994, it was hailed as a fascinating inside view of the Beatles in the studio and their impact on the music industry. MacDonald doesn't just report how their records were made; he registers his incisive conclusions on why the songs came out the way they did—where the lads had triumphed, and also where they were perhaps less than sparkling. "MacDonald has ferociously exact ears. He hears things," wrote Adam Gopnik in The New Yorker. "His judgments are full of discovery and conviction." This third edition takes us from John and Paul's first recordings in 1957 through The Beatles Live at the BBC and the Anthology series.
