Story
Dreaming the Beatles is not another biography of the Beatles or a song-by-song analysis of the best of John and Paul. It isn't another exposé about how they broke up. It isn't a history of their gigs or their gear. It is a collection of essays telling the story of what this ubiquitous band means to a generation who grew up with the Beatles' music on their parents' stereos and their faces on T-shirts. What do the Beatles mean today? Why are they more famous and beloved now than ever? Find out.

Story
The year that changed everything for the Beatles was 1966 - the year of their last concert and of Revolver, their first album created to be listened to rather than performed. This was the year the Beatles risked their popularity by retiring from live performances, recording songs that explored alternative states of consciousness, experimenting with avant-garde ideas, and speaking their minds on issues of politics, war, and religion. Music journalist and Beatles expert Steve Turner investigates the enormous changes that took place in the Beatles' lives and work during 1966.

My favourite book about music
A tour de force of musical history, theory and impact. The main thing I would change in the audio book version is to organise the chapters with one per track, do you can scroll through the catalog with ease. I also thought the delivery quality between the narrators varied wildly, the Irish guy being by far the most captivating.

The first chapter is very dense but stick with it!
I found the entire book to be highly interesting and informative. I feel like I understand the Beatles on a far deeper level now.
