Seen any good movies lately?
I know it’s a movie thread, but maybe I can help bring this discussion about the Beatles back home.

"Listen to his bass playing"

This book was written by Puna’s own Dennis Alstrand. 

https://www.amazon.com/Beatles-their-Rev...0615995349

It’s a fun read, and Dennis makes it clear that he enjoyed writing it and sharing the information. 

Disclaimer:  Dennis is a good friend of mine, but please don’t hold that against him.  It really is a good book.

I just checked my email and Dennis sent me some better information than what I presented:

I appreciate this!!!

The Beatles and Their Revolutionary Bass Player was my first book (an Amazon best seller). It is a year-by-year discussion of the Beatles' music, including new things to listen for, with a special nod to McCartney's bass playing. It also has a lot of various information about the albums (UK vs US), how they worked as a team, how songs were recorded, a whole lot of stuff is in this book...one of those books you can open to any section and find something (hopefully interesting).

The Beatles and Their Revolutionary Bass Player - Kindle edition by Alstrand, Dennis. Arts & Photography Kindle eBooks @ Amazon.com.

The Beatles in Your Soul was written as a reaction to how well the first book did. So many people had contributed to it with such commitment that I wanted to do it again. This time, I sought answers to the question "How and when did the Beatles affect your soul?". There are answers from people of every age, race and culture that I could connect with, talking about their first and ongoing impressions of the songs and the albums. It's a heartfelt book and a total labor of love.
One interesting side-thing I learned while putting this together was how most people don't refer to "the Beatles' first appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show". Instead that event has just become "Sullivan", as in "My whole life changed after Sullivan". If you were American and around in those days, somehow your life did change.

Both books are available for Kindle or in paperback.
