Interwoven with The Beatles' own memories are the recollections of such associates as road manager Neil Aspinall, producer George Martin, and spokesman Derek Taylor. <i>The Beatles Anthology</i> is a once-in-a-lifetime volume: warm, frank, funny, poignant, and bold-just like the music that's been a part of so many of our lives.<br/><br/><i>The Beatles Anthology</i> is, for the first time, the story of The Beatles by The Beatles. Created with the full cooperation of Paul, George, Ringo, and Yoko Ono Lennon, it also includes the words of John, painstakingly compiled from sources worldwide.<br/><br/><i>The Beatles Anthology</i> is, in effect, The Beatles autobiography.<br/><br/><i>The Beatles Anthology</i> features over 1300 images, most previously unpublished.

Boken RÅPUNK - The Birth of Swedish Hardcore dokumenterar den svenska råpunkscenen mellan åren 1981 - 1989.Den andra svenska punkvågen inspirerades av band som DISCHARGE, CRASS och DEAD KENNEDYS och utlöste en ursinnig, unik musikalisk och visuell attack som fortfarande påverkar och influerar punk-fans världen över.<br/>Råpunk fångar scenens anda och energi genom att publicera unika foton på band som ANTICIMEX, ASOCIAL, AVSKUM, DISARM, HUVUDTVÄTT/HEADCLEANERS, MISSBRUKARNA, MOB 47, MODERAT LIKVIDATION, RAPED TEENAGERS, RÖVSVETT, SKITSLICKERS, SVART PARAD, SVART SNÖ, SWANKERS PMS, TOTALITÄR och många, många fler. Boken dokumenterar också de som gick på spelningar, organiserade demonstrationer och husockupationer, gav ut fanzines, skivor och kassetter - alla vilka representerade minst lika viktiga kreativa och ideologiska delar av scenen. Råpunk innehåller också ett stort antal fanzines, posters, skiv- och kassettomslag vilka fångar råpunkscenens råa, expressiva och viktiga Do It Yourself-design och filosofi.<br/>Boken är skriven av DAVID ANDERSSON, en medlem av scenen i egenskap av redaktör av fanzinet BUBBEL-BAD och sångare i IDENTITY. Förordet är skrivet av legendariske NAPALM DEATHsångaren LEE DORRIAN som turnerade i Sverige under aktuell tid och också var en av de få som bokade svenska råpunkband i Storbritannien.<br/>Råpunk - The Birth of Swedish Hardcore fyller en viktig lucka då detta är första gången densvenska råpunkscenen under 1980-talet dokumenteras visuellt i bokform.

From the Introduction:<br/><br/>"There are certainly enough ingredients to fire imagination: a director [Mauritz Stiller] who had just finished a masterpiece [Gösta Berlings Saga]; a leading lady, the directors protégée, becoming known through his film [Greta Garbo]; a Russian exile with an extraordinary true story to tell [Vladimir Semitjov]; a film company with a spectacular big budget production in Egypt on its track record [Trianon Film AG]; an extravagant hotel in Constantinople, in a setting bridging East and West, poverty and luxury, set against the background of the recent Russian revolution; a heated quarrel on intellectual property rights; a film crew in distress, left by their director on Christmas Eve as luck had turned; The End."<br/><br/>No film, but a rediscovered manuscript A Tale from Constantinople written by Mauritz Stiller and Ragnar Hyltén-Cavallius, here published for the first time with an introduction and two contextualising essays.

Hela 64 hits från musikaler som gjort succé i West End. Arrangerade för sång och piano, med ackordanalys och gitarrboxar. Här finns melodier från Chess, Wicked, Miss Saigon, Starlight Express, Phantom of the Opera och många fler.

The book opens in January 1969, the beginning of The Beatles' last year as a band. The Beatles (The White Album) is at number one in the charts and the foursome gather in London for a new project. Over 21 days, first at Twickenham Film Studios and then at their own brand-new Apple Studios, with cameras and tape recorders documenting every day's work and conversations, the band rehearse a huge number of songs, culminating in their final concert, which famously takes place on the rooftop of their own office building, bringing central London to a halt.<br/><br/>The Beatles: Get Back tells the story of those sessions through transcripts of the band's candid conversations. Drawing on over 120 hours of sound recordings, leading music writer John Harris edits the richly captivating text to give us a fly-on-the-wall experience of being there in the studios. These sessions come vividly to life through hundreds of unpublished, extraordinary images by two photographers who had special access to their sessions-Ethan A.<br/><br/>Russell and Linda Eastman (who married Paul McCartney two months later). Also included are many unseen high-resolution film-frames, selected from the 55 hours of restored footage from which Peter Jackson's documentary is also drawn. Legend has it that these sessions were a grim time for a band falling apart.
