Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think I need to read a good history of The Beatles. Any recommendations?

I really enjoyed Peter Brown's The Love You Make.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Todd (my BF whose Beatles stuff has currently spread into 3 rooms in the house) recommends Shout by Philip Norman.

He also asks for more details as to what you're looking to get out of it.

Dunno. I'm curious about the very early days of the Beatles... like when they were playing in Hamburg and what-not....

Well, the film Backbeat is all about Hamburg. I never read the book its based on, but there is one. [link]

I feel like my brain has a fair amount of info about the Hamburg era but I'm not sure if its from one book or a dozen. I'll flip through the ones I still have and see.

(Edit: That link is being a PitA. It cuts off that close paren. It's just the Backbeat article on Wikipdia.)
