Behind every Beatles song is a story. In his cleverly-titled A Hard Day’s Write, Steve Turner runs through the complete Fab Four songbook in a manner that may not always satisfy but will certainly engage Beatles fans, and may interest more casual readers, too.
During
a 14-year period that saw them go from callow teens to jaded pop stars, the
Beatles crafted over 200 original songs. Simply listing all of them is no small
feat. Explaining how each came to be proves more challenging.
