Buenos dias, Amigos ! As expected, the new Mark Lewisohn’s book, All These Years – Tune In , is really refreshing and fully informative. An excellent read indeed. Amongst other things, I was pleasantly surprised to notice that not only Mark confirms the main conclusions previously developed in The B...

Buenos Dias ! In order to get a better idea of the contents of the Fact and Fiction book (which was voted “Book of the year 2010” in Germany), the publisher Atlantica/Séguier decided to maintain the “interactive reading” link so that you’ll get the possibility to read at least the first 48 pages of ...

Buenos Dias ! The book The Beatles Fact and Fiction 1960-1962 was presented at the last London Beatles Day on Sunday 13 March 2011.

Los Beatles grabaron nueve temas con Tony Sheridan entre 1961 y 1962, pero una fue perdida o destrui...

Buenos dias a todos! As I told you earlier, I was present (along with my co-author/friend Jean-Claude Hocquet) on Sunday 29 August at the Liverpool convention which was located at the prestigious Adelphi hotel in the city's center. Among the guests were Julia Baird (John Lennon's half sister), Allan...

Buena lectura.

Hasta pronto!

Un peu d'oreille seulement Eric, écoute juste après la fin su solo de guitar, il y a un cri de Paul qui est COUPE et collé avec la fin d'autre cri surement d'autre take. - Mais surtout si vous écoutez il y a un espace juste entre ces deux morceaux, une millésime de second seulement. http://dl.toofi...

This means that you have in fact two lead guitarists for that song, instead of one. Eric Oui Eric, par contre il faut pas oublier Lennon, c'est a dire qu'il avait 3 guitarristes dans l'Studio. Et un autre chose, je me suis rendu de compte que la version Official de My Bonnie est en fait le résultat...

One important thing about the solo on My Bonnie : The original solo that you can hear on the Polydor record was played by Tony Sheridan (he said that his job was more or less to play solos too), but the little guitar "fill-ins" you can hear when Tony is singing (when is not playing the sol...

Eso es, Beatles Sound! Although Ringo Starr was Tony Sheridan's drummer for three months in early 1962 (January yo March), he never participated to any "grabacion con Tony". En effecto, no hay Polydor grabaciones con Ringo Starr, unicamente con Pete Best!

Muchas Gracias!

Eric

Buenos Dias! I have the pleasure to announce you that a new review of the book The Beatles: Fact and Fiction 1960-1962 was published on Monday 22 March on the well known Norwegian Beatles blog, Wog Blog . Here's the link for those who are interested in having a look at it: http://wogew.blogspot.com/...

¡Hola, Leonardo! Many thanks for your quick and kind response. Yes, you're absolutely right: many rumours have surfaced through the years concerning the Hamburg recording sessions, and because of that, there is a complete part in the first chapter of my book which is dedicated to that subjetc. So, e...

I almost understood your complete post Leonardo, except for the end. Do you mean that I did mention these songs (Skinny Minny, Kansas City, Some Other Guy & Tell Me If You Can) or I did not mention, and so omit them in the book?...

Gracias,

Eric

Buenos Dias!
