The authors of what I feel is one of the best (if not THE best) books on The Beatles will be speaking next week in Boston and New York City about Recording The Beatles (Curvebender).
Authors Brian Kehew and Kevin Ryan will be speaking about their landmark book in Boston on December 2nd and New York on December 3rd. The New York talk will be held at the historic Ed Sullivan theatre, on the very stage from which the Beatles first beamed into the homes of America in 1964.
Both lectures are open to the public, though seating is limited. Click here for information on the December 2nd talk in Boston, and click here for info about the December 3rd talk in New York. Beatles fans and recording buffs will not want to miss this.
