A unique combination of musical analysis and cultural history,

Riley offers a new, deeper understanding of the Beatles by closely considering each song and album they recorded in an exploration as rigorous as it is soulful. He tirelessly sifts through the Beatles discography, making clear that the legendary four were more than mere teen idols: They were brilliant innovators who mastered an extremely detailed art. Since the first publication of
in 1988, much new primary source material has appeared -- Paul McCartney's authorized biography, the
CDs and videos, the complete Parlophone-sequenced albums on CD, the
sessions, and the global smash
