I owned this book, but ended up needing a new copy when mine became lost. I don't usually buy books that I've already read again, but this is a keeper! I have perused a few books of this nature and found this to head and shoulders above the rest. The notes are clear and concise, and it was a surprise to find that the book even tells you who wrote how much. In other words, we find out that " Lennon /McCartney" often means "9.0 Lennon .01 McCartney" or vise/versa. There are many interesting tidbits on how the germs of various songs came about. Quotes like "This came to me in a dream"-Lennon etc.. make for fascinating fan talk, and are also invaluable for songwriters / musicians like me. I have no real negatives to report, as this is a book I like to return to over and over. Even enough to buy it again!Read full review

This book is really terrific if you're a Beatles fan who wants to know specifics about the writing of each song. It's very simply and clearly laid out. If you're looking for some photos and a more in depth look at the songs, an excellent book would be "A Hard Days Write". I believe that both books are worth owning together, as each complements the other.
