If you plan to be in London on November 15, stop by the Waterstones on Tottenham Court road at 6:30pm for the launch of a new Beatles book called "Visualising the Beatles." There will be live music and the book looks interesting. The BBFC will be reviewing it in our next quarterly magazine, but if you are looking for ideas for Christmas gifts, you might want to go along and check it out in person since our review won't be published until January.The publisher describes the the book as "... the story of the Beatles told as never before. Explored visually, through stunning infographics and data visualisations, this book takes you on a vibrant ride through the Beatles years - from their first Cavern Club gig to the release of Let It Be.Presenting unique, witty and surprising facts and stories, covering everything from their style to plans for a Beatles Island, VISUALISING THE BEATLES charts how four young men evolved into one of the world's greatest bands. It includes beautiful visuals created from the data their music left behind, divided by album, to allow you to spot, in an instant, the patterns, anomalies and changes in the band's lyrics, instruments, songwriting and performances."
The launch is November 15, but the book will be available for sale on November 3.
Will this be available in the U.S.?
ReplyDeleteI am certain it will be but not sure of the timing. I will ask the publisher and comment again when I can tell you more.
