Stark puts their impact into unique perspective by revealing both the personal details and the larger events that made them into the twentieth century's greatest cultural force." "This book explains the legendary band's aura and examining the ways in which the Beatles' own lives were inextricably tied to the cultural, youth, and gender revolutions they helped create and lead during the 1960s." "Based on extensive research and more than a hundred new interviews, Meet the Beatles offers a fresh interpretation of their story, beginning with their childhoods in England and the profound effect on their outlook and music caused by the deaths of Paul's and John's mothers when they were young. It documents their subsequent special bond with women - from their teenage fans to the mothers of their friends to close partners Linda and Yoko. It illustrates the central importance of drugs, both for them and the youthful counterculture they led; why their unusual hairstyles set off a cultural revolution; how the band came to create a new vision of the role of women; and the unique conditions that allowed these four to conquer America faster than any other cultural phenomenon in history. It explains why the group's popularity has never faded - even now, more than four decades after they first hit the charts." "From Liverpool and Hamburg to Ed Sullivan and Shea Stadium, it's all here - from the improbable decision to fire their original drummer and bring Ringo into the band to why they broke up and who was responsible."--BOOK JACKET.
