Didn’t Mark say in that episode that whilst he’d love to do it he won’t be as Tune In volume 3 will be his last big Beatles book undertaking?

I think it was more of a “by the time I finish volume 3” I’ll be wayyyyy to old!

Something that I have always wondered when I gaze at a picture of a Beatle is… “Dang, they have really amazing hair… what shampoo did they use?” I read as many Beatle books that I could find and I never found the awnser.

Well now there’s one more aspect that has been covered. I found this while looking for something else this evening. I like it when fun stuff like that happens.

Baby You’re a Rich Man: Suing the Beatles for Fun and Profit

The Beatles, the most popular, influential, and important band of all time, have been the subject of countless books of biography, photography, analysis, history, and conjecture. But this long and winding road has produced nothing like Baby You’re A Rich Man , the first book devoted to the cascade of legal actions engulfing the band, from the earliest days of the lovable mop-heads to their present prickly twilight of cultural sainthood.

Part Beatles history, part legal thriller, Baby You’re A Rich Man begins in the era when manager Brian Epstein opened the Pandora’s box of Rock ‘N’ Roll merchandising, making a hash of the band’s licensing and inviting multiple lawsuits in the United States and the United Kingdom. The band’s long breakup period, from 1969 to 1971, provides a backdrop to the Machiavellian grasping of new manager Allen Klein, who unleashed a blizzard of suits and legal motions to take control of the band, their music, and Apple Records. Unsavory mob associate Morris Levy first sued John Lennon for copyright infringement over “Come Together “; then sued him again for not making a record for him. Phil Spector, hired to record a Lennon solo album, walked off with the master tapes and held them for a king’s ransom. And from 1972 to 1975, Lennon was the target of a deportation campaign personally spearheaded by key aides of President Nixon (caught on tape with a drug-addled Elvis Presley) that wound endlessly through the courts.

In Baby You’re A Rich Man , Stan Soocher ties the Beatles’ ongoing legal troubles to some of their most enduring songs. What emerges is a stirring portrait of immense creative talent thriving under the pressures of ill will, harassment, and greed.

There are a lot of Bealtes fiction plots that haven’t been written about.

This sounds like the perfect companion to Doggett’s book. I wonder if they cover the 30 year My Sweet Lord suit, hopefully so if it covers Klein’s shenanigans!

Funny you should say that.  There’s a new eBook on Amazon that brings John Lennon back to life.  And up to all sorts in the 1980s.  FAB1-1.jpgImage Enlarger
