"Ticket to Ride-Inside the Beatles' 1984 Tour that Changed the World" by Larry Kane (Foreword by Dick Clark) - Hardcover w/Dustjacket (withAudio CD) Published in 2003 by Running Press - 272 pages (16 pages of great black & white photos) - both book and DJ are in NEAR MINT condition. It over 50 years ago that a 22year-old broadcast journalist from Florida was invited by manager Brian Epstein to travel with the Beatles to every stop on their first North American tours. The only American reporter in the official press party, Larry Kane obtained exclusive, revealing interviews with John, Paul, George, and Ringo. Fortunately, Kane saved his original notes and tapes, and shares them here for the first time. That material provides the basis for his intimate look back at the phenomenon of the Fab Four, and insights into the humor and personality of each group member. Ticket to Ride, illustrated with more than 30 photographs, captures a rare time in history, gracefully melding the story of the Beatles revolution with the changing tenor of the country. Hear John Lennon's early public criticism of the Vietnam War, and learn about the night the Beatles met Bob Dylan. "We had a crazy party the night we met [Dylan]," Paul recounts. I thought I got the meaning to life that night." Ticket to Ride includes a 60 minute audio CD featuring rare interviews. Remember, this book is in NEAR MINT condition.
