Shoulda Been There

Shoulda Been There

Jude Southerland Kessler

"Many people think that the title means that readers should've been there for the heyday of the Beatles, the years when they were performing at the Cavern Club and in Hamburg," Kessler said. "When John told a joke, if the listener didn't laugh, he would shrug and sarcastically comment, 'Well, ya shoulda been there.' So, I got the title from him."

Here comes a book that breathes life into the [Lennon] story…and I say, ‘Hey Jude, carry on!’”
Bill Harry, noted Beatle expert and Founder of Mersey Beat

Shoulda Been There is definitely a must-read for Beatle fans and music fans in general.

Front Street Reviews

This book is almost beyond description! I've read nearly every book ever written about John Lennon. This is probably the best book I have ever read about John's life as a child, teenager and young adult.

Are you a serious Beatles fan? just buy this book!

“the research [on Lennon] is meticulous, down to the tiniest detail…the reader can almost imagine oneself in the room! Indeed, it is this “fly on the wall” approach that is most interesting and endearing…Kessler manages to bring the people and places to vivid life with her charming narrative style.” - Susan Ryan, daytrippin.com

*** NOW PLAYING APPLE JAM ***

"Off the Beatle Track" showcases early Lennon/McCartney/Harrison compositions released by others, but never by Beatles while they were together. Instead, the songs were given to British contemporaries like Billy J. Kramer, Cilla Black, and Peter & Gordon. These artists in turn produced a sizable body of hits including "Bad to Me", "A World Without Love", and "I'll Be on My Way" -- proving the quality and timeless nature of the Beatles songwriting and music.

Apple Jam is embodying each track with an authentic Beatles sound, as if the Liverpool lads had released these songs themselves circa 1963. "We are using the same microphones, gear, and studio techniques of the period to make the album sound just like an early Beatles record," says Rick Lovrovich, Apple Jam's founding member

the
Mono Box

The 12-CD The Beatles in Mono box set is more than a collector's indulgence. The warmth and punch of early albums With the Beatles and Beatles for Sale evoke the experience of first hearing songs like "All My Loving" on the original vinyl. But in mono, these albums have finally received the treatment they deserve.

Why Listen To The Beatles In Mono?

Clearly, in the sixties mono was king. Few people had ever heard stereo sound because most record players had just one speaker and stereo radio was still in it's infancy.

"To us, what was important was the balance of the song," he explains. "We felt we were sort of mixing the message, rather than putting things in places. We weren't that interested in stereo. It wasn't where we were from"

World Premiere: "Studio 2" - Beatles Tribute Song - Fab 4 Radio (Internet)
Beatles tribute song chosen for world premiere. Fab 4 Radio mainly plays songs of The Beatles. Quite selective, only the best new music is accepted. Fab 4 Radio calls "Studio 2" --Cool.

The songs of The Beatles have a magic quality that transcends time
Seeing them live was an epiphany.
Fab 4 Radio's debut of my song is a thrill. The station has a great playlist with listeners in 50 nations. I couldn't get George, but I got Jimmy
Jimmy co-produced Byron's Dream. He is a fabulous guitarist and will be in Liverpool in late August performing his tribute to George Harrison.

Las Vegas, Nevada (Billboard Publicity Wire) August 14, 2009 -- World Premiere: "Studio 2" - Beatles Tribute Song - Fab 4 Radio (internet) on August 19.
Beatlemania lives, especially in Las Vegas, where the Cirque du Soleil's Love is still a smash and Beatles tribute bands perform nightly. "The songs of The Beatles have a magic quality that transcends time," says Bill Donati. "Seeing them live was an epiphany."
Byron's Dream, Bill's new CD, includes a whimsical song about EMI's Abbey Road and seeing the group perform on August 19, 1966, in Memphis. "I saw both shows," says Donati. "I sat right behind the stage. We were all curious about their secret sessions at EMI's Abbey Road studio. The songs had a unique sound.
"Geoff Emerick's fine book Here, There and Everywhere, about recording The Beatles, is a superb account for fans. I started as a garage drummer but my group, The Goatdancers, recorded for the Ardent label in Memphis (Ace/Big Beat).
"Fab 4 Radio's debut of my song is a thrill. The station has a great playlist with listeners in 50 nations. I couldn't get George, but I got Jimmy," says Donati, referring to famous musician Jimmy Pou who toured the world as Harrison in Beatlemania. "Jimmy co-produced Byron's Dream. He is a fabulous guitarist and will be in Liverpool in late August performing his tribute to George Harrison." Recorded at Nactrax in Las Vegas; available on CD Baby on August 19.
