Publisher's Synopsis
- This is a very different take on The Beatles. Individual tracks throughout the entire Beatles catalogue are subject to multiple perspectives including, but not limited to: Biography, Geography, Philosophy, Sociology, Politics, Drug Culture and even Quantum Physics!
- This book is unique in that it provides multiple perspectives on each song, and offers a fresh and fascinating take on The Beatles' music. It provides a great read for fans who are interested in exploring the many layers of meaning and context behind each song.
- So why in 2023 are there are now even those who (incorrectly) claim that The Beatles didn't even write their own songs or that Ringo Starr didn't drum on lots of early tracks? It's perplexing at best and seen as highly controversial amongst die hard Beatles' fans with good reason, as we shall see.
- Beatledom then ultimately is a land where multiple synchronicities collide in an array of unexpected but significant coincidences too numerous to ignore. This book also discusses how the theories of both Bohmian and Bio-centric, Quantum Physics can be explored through their songs and these multiple synchronicities in a way that has never quite been done before in Beatles' studies or scholarship.
- Given 5 stars by Professor Ken Campbell, renowned historian & Beatles author. Review: - * described by him as 'unlike virtually any other book you will read on the Beatles. - The Beatles & their journey into Beatledom is thoughtful, imaginative, exuberantly written and painstakingly crafted.' This book is brimful of stuff most Beatle fans have never heard of.
- Review by BILL: HARRY; - Beatles' long term friend and art school colleague of JOHN LENNON. 'JOURNEY INTO BEATLEDOM' is JOE ROBINSON'S vision of providing a different slant on the Beatles story in contrast to the numerous straight, but all too familiar, chronological biographies. Such was his passion that it seemed proper for me to interview him rather than just write a review as I always find that the writers themselves provide more of an insight into their work than a reviewer. So I deemed an interview more appropriate - A very interesting book.'
