The Beatles: On Camera, Off Guard 1963-69 (Book & DVD)

Featuring more than 200 rare and never-before-seen images, this is a fascinating insight into the private lives of the world’s biggest band. Painstakingly collected and organized, the photos include shots of the Quarrymen, where John first met Paul; shots from the filming of A Hard Day’s Night and the set of Help in the Bahamas; John and Yoko at home; and Paul on holiday in Frank Sinatra’s Learjet. Interviews with many of the photographers provide an extraordinary insight into the background of each shot, while extended captions give further information. A DVD filled with 8mm footage of the band at various locations and concerts completes this fantastically intimate compendium that encapsulates the culture, music, and spirit of the 1960s.
