Day John Met Paul, The

The Day that John Met Paul is an hour-by-hour account of the fateful day the two founding Beatles met in July 1957. But it is much more than that; it's a spellbinding story of how fate brought together two men who would radically change the face of popular music, from its look and feel to its sound. Originally self-published by the author-a well-known pop music writer and Beatles fan-it went on to be a successful paperback in 1995 when it was published. Long out of print, but revered among Beatles fans, this new printing will include a new introduction along with photos and maps of the many Liverpool landmarks-from Strawberry Fields to Penny Lane-that played a role in the Beatles's life and works. The Day that John Met Paul chronicles "a day in the life" of John and Paul-a day that changed the musical world.
