2015: A for Apple book?

Um livro "recente" sobre a Apple que esgotou rapidamente. Primeira edição:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Apple-Illustrated-History-multimedia-corporation/dp/3000478337

Quoting:
"Volume 1 of a is for apple was released in April 2015 to worldwide acclaim; all copies of the book sold out within a month and are now sought-after collector’s items which fetch high prices on the second-hand market. Ever since, people have been asking for a reprint of Volume 1. Well, we are glad to announce we will be offering a very limited number of reprints of this book, so if you missed out on Volume 1, this is your chance to grab a copy. Originally, Volume 1 came with a two-sided disc with two previously unheard Jackie Lomax demos, but due to agreements we had with Jackie, a reprint of that single is no longer an option. Instead, we are proud to be able to offer two previously unreleased Apple recordings on a vinyl single with the reprint, one of which is an Apple published song by Miles and Robert Priestley (who are also featured on one of RPM’s great Apple published acts compilations, 94 Baker Street Revisited), while the B-side is a version of Ev'rything's Al'right by the Mojos performed by an unknown group and found on an Apple acetate. Of course we will give the buyers of the original Volume 1 the opportunity to buy this single as well."

2019-09: Novo álbum e novo livro de Ringo

https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-49991164
Citando:
"The star was speaking ahead of the release of his latest book, Another Day In The Life, which is the third in a series of collections of his own photographs - charting his life from childhood up to recent tours with his current group The All-Starr Band.

The band also play alongside Ringo on his new album, his twentieth, entitled What's My Name?

It sees the drummer working with a huge cast of collaborators including The Eagles' Joe Walsh, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers' keyboardist Benmont Tench and, on the song Grow Old With Me, his former bandmate Sir Paul McCartney.

"It's the best. I love playing with him," Ringo says of teaming up with his old friend. "We played a lot together in 'that band' and he's still in the most melodic player. He's still incredible, for me, I feel the emotion when plays.""

2019-01: Estrelas de rock em cuecas

Paul McCartney em cuecas? Sim.

https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/rock-stars-in-their-underpants-david-bowie-debbie-harry-paul-mccartney-and-more/

Citando:
"In her twenties, Yates released a fantastically cheeky book entitled Rock Stars in Their Underpants which perfectly sums up her desire to not take life too seriously. At one point, Andy Warhol comically dubbed the book as ‘the greatest work of art in the last decade.’‘

With David Bowie, Paul McCartney, Debbie Harry and more all present, here’s a sneak peak inside."

2018-09: Quão difícil foi terminar o White Album?

Bastante, aparentemente, pelo relato do livro de George Martin (parte 2):
https://www.salon.com/2018/09/09/the-beatles-struggle-to-finish-the-white-album-how-bad-did-it-get/

Citando:
"And that’s when George chimed in, offering advice to the Beatle about rephrasing his vocals. “Paul, can you try rephrasing the last line of each verse?” George asked. To Geoff’s ears, the Beatles’ producer was adopting the same “gentle, slightly aristocratic voice” that he had always deployed in his dealings with the Beatles. Geoff couldn’t help admiring the older man, later lauding him for “still trying to do his job, still trying to steer his charges toward increased musical sophistication and help push them to their best performances.” But Emerick wasn’t prepared for McCartney’s curt response: “If you think you can do it better, why don’t you fucking come down here and sing it yourself?” The engineer sat there in the booth, dumbstruck by Paul’s tone. “What happened next shocked me to the core,” Emerick later wrote. “In sheer frustration, quiet, low-key George Martin actually began shouting back at Paul. ‘Then bloody sing it again!’ he yelled over the talkback, causing me to wince. ‘I give up. I just don’t know any better how to help you.’ It was the first time I had ever heard George Martin raise his voice in a session. The silence following the outburst was equally deafening.”"

2018-02-07: Livro de Astrid Kirchherr com os Beatles

https://www.creativeboom.com/inspiration/the-beatles/

Citando:
"Say hello, hello to a stunning new book of photographs of the Fab Four themselves, shot by Astrid Kirchherr who according to none other than George Harrison, was “the one, really, who influenced our image more than anybody. She made us look good.”

Kirchherr was still just a student of art and fashion when she began turning her lens to greats like The Beatles when they visited her native Hamburg. At that time, the band was still pre-Ringo, with a lineup of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Pete Best and Stuart Sutcliffe. According to the book’s publisher Damiani, the young photographer “was struck by their 'raw energy, beauty and attitude' and there was an instant attraction between her and the band's bass player Stuart, to whom she soon became engaged.” Hard luck for her boyfriend, the artist Klaus Voormann, who had initially introduced her to the band in a club on the Hamburg's Reeperbahn."

2017-11-02: Assassino de JL, livro escrito e Jesus?

Parece que acredita que foi perdoado e escreveu um livro (já vendido):
http://www.radiox.co.uk/artists/john-lennon/john-lennon-killer-thinks-jesus-has-forgiven-him/

Citando:
"The unusual item was sold by Eric Holler, who runs a website, known as Serial Killers Ink, that sells pieces from notorious criminals.
Speaking to The Mirror newspaper, Eric explained: "We initially obtained the letter from a private citizen who was a pen pal of
Chapman's.

"I have never been in touch with Chapman myself. It sold about an hour after it was listed on the website. I would love to obtain more
Chapman items as they sell extremely well.""

2017-05-21: Livro defende que JL foi assassinado pela CIA

http://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/615684/Beatles-john-lennon-killed-CIA-mark-david-chapman-fbi-usa-new-york-sgt-peppers

Citando:
"An explosive book suggests the Beatles megastar was murdered by US intelligence agencies in a chilling attempt to halt Lennon’s support of “leftist” and “radical” politics.

John Potash’s Drugs as Weapons Against Us states that crime agencies allegedly tracked various high-profile pop stars before their untimely deaths, claiming their huge influence effectively brainwashed young Americans to follow a “leftist agenda”."
