In The Complete Beatles Songs, Steve Turner shatters many well-worn myths and adds a new dimension to the Fab Four’s rich legacy.
This beautifully packaged book examines every Beatles-penned song and the inspiration behind them all; with fresh research and packed with new information, there are revelations aplenty. The book covers the Fab Four’s entire output chapter by chapter and includes a complete set of printed lyrics to accompany each song, used with exclusive permission from the band’s music publishers.
Who was ‘just seventeen’ and made Paul’s heart go ‘boom’? Who was ‘Lady Madonna’? Was there really an Eleanor Rigby? What inspired ‘Happiness is a Warm Gun’? Why was Paul the ‘walrus’ and what inspired the lyrics to Ringo’s ‘Octopus’s Garden’?

I bought this for my mother’s 70th Birthday and she loves it. There is so much information about the band and the thought process/inspiration for the lyrics along with the lyrics to all of their songs.

Bought for my musical Beatle loving husband. He found it very interesting and gleaned a lot of information he didn’t previously know, although he’s well versed on Beatles history already. A good purchase at a reasonable price.

Nicely presented. Didn’t really tell me anything I didn’t already know. For example, no mention of Bob Dylan when discussing Norwegian Wood. Typos everywhere… needs a good edit. But is my go to source when reminding myself of lyrics.
