'' The Lost Beatles Interviews" informs fans, like myself, about history of the beatles through an oral biography. Geoffrey Giuliano captures the beatles personalities, from when they were no-bodies to famous musicians. This book shows their witty,clever personalities that just makes you love them even more. "Question: Do you enjoy press conferences? John: Yes, depending on the intelligence of the question." It will make laugh and at the same time inform you of their great triumphs. 'The Lost Beatles Interviews," was entertaining and kept you interested throughout the whole book. It let you know what was on their minds and their opinions of their success. One issue that the book suggested was not to take drugs. The problem was addressed after their manager, Brian Epstein, died at the age of 32. Another conflict, was their point of view they had on God. They tried to keep religious beliefs to them self's after John made a Jesus remark and had to apologies for it. These issues relate to me because there are students that still take drugs and maybe if they never had role models this wouldn't be an issue now. I also don't take John's remark personally because I believe we're all entitled our opinions. You can read other issues that the Beatles had to confront throughout history, once you get this book. I would defiantly recommend this book to future Beatles fans. It will help you understand and appreciate their work. It can even bring you and your parents closer together.

HISTORY COMES TO LIFE IN THIS GREAT BOOK

I loved this well put together collection of interviews with the Beatles and their inner circle. Thank heavens for this book. These interviews are indeed historical and might well have been lost to time if it wasn't for the efforts of author Giuliano. A must read for all Beatles fans.

BEATLES FOREVER

Really liked it and took the time to say it here. What a GREAT writer / researcher Giuliano is! The group's not bad either...

The Lost Beatles Inteviews

I'm only 13 years old (even tho it says I'm 12) but have a big apreciation for the Beatles. I guess I got it from my dad. I'm doing a National History Day project on the Beatles and how they revolutionized the world of music. This book wasn't as good of a resource for my project, but i absolutely love it for just fun reading. I love John Lennon's funny remarks in the earlier ones, and they are just so much fun to read! I am getting this book for my dad for his birthday in February and I think he will like it a lot, but not nearly as much as I do!!!

Quite Interesting and Revealing

I agree with other reader, that Jo Jo Laine's interview was quite revealing. It sure was a different slant than most books say in regards to Linda as a person. I didn't feel it was a slam to Paul. Some of the interviews mention that Paul's controlling but I feel his being such a perfectionist gives that impression. I would much rather have Paul a control freak than a whimp anyway. I certainly learned some things about John and Yoko's relationship and not all good either. I think its a good book at the very least it expresses what the people who were interviewed felt at the time and who are we to say it was any different.
