The Red Light's On...: The 21st Century Guide to the Music of the Beatles

Finally, a guide for Beatles fans in the Internet Age. This volume, newly remastered by author Kevin Segura for 2009, details the group's voluminous available recordings-- including meticulous detail regarding their early BBC radio recordings, live concerts and a comprehensive look at the ill-fated "Get Back" recording sessions of 1969. All of this in addition to a catalogue of their classic EMI recordings, which are being restored and re-released in September of 2009! Originally published as "I'll Get You: The Beatle Music Index" in 1993, the book became a fan favorite for its balanced, scholastic reach; and in the intervening years, there's been a steady demand for an updated volume, to reflect new discoveries in The Beatles' recorded legacy. Happily, that day has now arrived. As always, Segura presents the material in an informed (but informal) style, and each session is clearly presented in an uncluttered, easy-to-use format. Additional appendices are added for demo and concert recordings, and the book is capped by an exhaustively cross-referenced Song Title Index. "The Red Light's On..." is a perfect companion to the Fab Four's new, remastered stereo and mono boxed sets-- and a masterful peek behind the scenes at the stunning musical legacy left behind by John, Paul George & Ringo. With this newly updated volume, even the group's most dedicated fans can find something new to appreciate!
