"I was as fascinated as the rest of the world with the Paul is Dead rumors. I think hes still alive, but this is a book thats long overdue!" - Kathy Garver, star of the TV series Family Affair. "The Beatles changed the way we listen to music. Like Elvis, they were revolutionary. At first playful, they metamorphosed into writing thought provoking, dynamic music which shall be listened to, and appreciated, by all generations. My favorite is Elinor Rigby. Haunting. A whole play and life story in one song. Coming from Norway, Norwegian Wood ranks second on my list. Lyrical and romantic. And, of course, Let it Be, which should be our universal anthem. To me, the Beatles legacy is the universally heartfelt communality of their storytelling they gifted us. With their music ringing in my ears, I will never be Lost in Space!"- Marta Kristen, star of the TV series Lost in Space. "We really enjoyed the multi-faceted approaches of this book and it was a pleasure to contribute our input to it. Its a joy-packed voyage back to a magical era that will probably never happen again in human history. Nowadays, things are very splintered into thousands of different, separate little niches. Everything is diverse- basically all over the place. The unique element about the whole Beatles phenomenon is that it was just so incredibly focused. The whole country knew that The Beatles were going to appear live on television Sunday night. Everybody knew it. Everybody watched it. Everybody talked about it the next day. Everybody was on the same page. It was just so unique. The book is unique also because it captures many of the wonders associated with that phenomenon and does so in ways that havent been done before. "- Richard Belzer & David Wayne, best selling authors.
