"A must-have for Beatles fans looking for new insight . . . Leonard
uncovers fresh ideas [that] . . . six decades of Beatles literature
passed over." The Spectrum Part generational memoir and part
cultural history of the sixties, Beatleness is the first book to
tell the story of the Beatles and their impact on America from the
fans' perspective. When the Beatles arrived in the United States on
February 7, 1964, they immediately became a constant, compelling
presence in fans' lives. For the next six years, the band presented
a nonstop deluge of steadily evolving sounds, ideas, and images
that transformed the childhood and adolescence of millions of baby
boomers and nurtured a relationship unique in history. Exploring
that relationship against the backdrop of the sexual revolution,
political assassinations, the Vietnam War, and other events,
Beatleness examines critically the often-heard assertion that the
Beatles "changed everything" and shows how through the interplay
between the group, the fans, and the culture that change came
about. Beatleness incorporates hundreds of hours of in-depth fan
interviews and includes many fan vignettes. Offering a fresh
perspective and new insights on the Beatles phenomenon, it allows
readers to experience or re-experience what it was like to be a
young person during those transformative years.
