Alrededor de The Beatles han surgido toda suerte de leyendas sobre su música y sobre la vida de cada uno de los componentes del grupo. Se ha analizado con lupa la trayectoria de Lennon, se ha especulado con la personalidad de McCartney, y se ha dicho de todo de las vidas de Ringo Starr y George Harrison. Pero hasta este momento no se había hecho un ejercicio de recopilación anecdótica de quien fue parte esencial de la banda sonora de tantas generaciones. El encuentro, el camino, el éxito, la separación, la muerte y el mito se dan de la mano en este libro y nos ofrecen lo mejor (y lo peor) de quienes perdurarán para siempre en nuestra memoria. • ¿Cuáles fueron los nombres del grupo antes de adoptar el definitivo Beatles? • ¿A quién le escribía Lennon sus primeras canciones de amor? • ¿Qué ocurrió en el show de Ed Sullivan cuando desembarcaron en los EE.UU.? • ¿Grabaron alguna canción en un idioma diferente al inglés? • La aventura española de The Beatles. • La última aparición de John Lennon en un escenario. • Las canciones de los Beatles y la publicidad.
