简介:
《披头士录音过程》基于Beatles从1962年到1970年期间在Abbey Road Studio的录音过程笔记,以日记的形式详细记录了著名歌曲的录制过程和细节。包含350多张图片。本书开篇为对Paul McCartney的访谈。是深入了解The Beatles的珍贵资料。
《披头士单飞年代》是英国著名音乐杂志NME出的特刊之一,记录了1970 - 1980 乐队成员单飞的经历。图文并茂,值得收藏。
注:《单飞年代》早在05年已有朋友在NME Originals的合集里发过,

不过感觉和这里的主题比较贴近,而且正好是记录了1970年后也就是Recording Sessions所记录之后的事,在这里又发一次。
《披头士口袋指南》是一本介绍Beatles历史和故事的小书,96页可以一口气看完。
====================
At last: the complete, official,
inside-the-studio details of every
Beatles recording session
Suspending microphones inside water jars,
recording guitar solos backward, and cutting up
tape and splicing it back together in random order,
the Beatles experimented tirelessly. From the raw
energy of their made-in-a-day debut LP Please
Please Me through the technical genius of the
seminal Sgt Pepper to the last album they recorded,
the finely crafted Abbey Road, the Beatles sustained
an unsurpassed level of creativity in the recording
studio. They used the Abbey Road recording studio
in ways no studio had been used before, and in the
process they completely revolutionized popular
music.
The photos, stories, and recording details in The
Beatles: Recording Sessions open up this magic
laboratory where the Beatles created the sounds that
changed the world. For every day the Beatles ever
laid down a track in the recording studio, this book
details what songs they were recording, who was
present, how many takes were done, what special
effects or techniques were employed, and anything
unusual that happened that day. Here are the Beatles
as you've never seen them before: John Lennon
asking to be suspended from the ceiling with a rope
around his waist and spun over a microphone to
achieve a unique vocal effect; George Harrison
running around the studio holding a flaming ashtray
over his head while Paul McCartney records the
vocals of "Helter Skelter"; and rock-steady Ringo,
after one of his rare foul-ups, grousing "We all make
mistakes."
EMI Records, the Beatles' British record label, has
made available to author Mark Lewisohn its
unpublished documentation for every recording
session the Beatles ever did, and has allowed him to
listen to the hundreds of hours of alternative takes
and unreleased tracks in their archive. From these
sources, in combination with interviews with Paul
McCartney and the producers, engineers, session
musicians, and others who were in the studio with
the band, Lewisohn has created a thorough, fascina-
ting, and definitive record of the Beatles at work.
Featuring details of every recording session,
more than 350 photos in color and duotone,
