Hanno scritto alcune delle canzoni più belle e famose del secolo scorso, hanno contribuito a rendere "visibili" i giovani, hanno stabilito nuove regole d'abbigliamento e di vita, hanno fatto crescere i capelli a un'intera generazione, hanno cambiato alcune regole della nostra vita e molto, molto altro ancora. Il tutto con una dozzina di album, tutti passati alla storia, e in meno di dieci anni, tra il 1962 e il 1970. Un decennio rivoluzionario sotto molti punti di vista, così com'erano rivoluzionari i Beatles.

In February 1969, the Beatles began working on what became their final album together. Abbey Road introduced a number of new techniques and technologies to the Beatles' sound and included "Come Together", "Something", and "Here Comes the Sun", which all emerged as classics.

There's only one book that ever truly got inside the Beatles, and this is it. During 1967 and 1968, Hunter Davies spent 18 months with the Beatles at the peak of their powers as they defined a generation and rewrote popular music. As their only-ever authorised biographer, he had unparalleled access - not just to John, Paul, George, and Ringo, but to friends, family, and colleagues. He collected a wealth of intimate and revealing material that makes this the classic Beatles book - the one all other biographers look to.

In 1968, the Beatles trekked to a remote, mysterious, and beautiful part of India known as Rishikesh, or the valley of the saints. For literally thousands of years, this remote riverside valley has been a magnet for advanced yogis, mystics, and seekers of truth. In 1968, it was the absolute zenith of all of this and the pop world as well. It was here the Beatles wrote dozens of now iconic songs while meditating at the feet of the lauded spiritual master.
