Ticket to Ride: Inside the Beatles' 1964 and 1965 Tours That Changed the World Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a sterling, high caliber first rate work.
Larry Kane, a veteran news reporter/broadcast journalist shares anecdotes of his year traveling with the Beatles.He covers the concerts from 1964 and 1965 and gives in-depth analyses of each individual Beatle.Kane's voice, the voice of a newsman rings pure and clear; he not only provides an objective reporting style, but he effectively includes his subjective feelings regarding the events and people he has covered.
This book contains material that is new even to inveterate Beatle fans; this book is a treasure trove of historical information.Kane covers incidents as seemingly humorous as George Harrison aiming his drink at an intrusive reporter to events as serious as the safety and personal observations of each Beatle.
Kane's writing style is very inclusive; in covering the issues and events, he skillfully draws his readers in so that one feels a part of what is taking place in the narratives.He is also quite adept at portraying the individuality of each person mentioned in the book.I like the wayhe has interviewed fans and included their input as well as updates on them.I was also delighted that Kane included a list of Beatles' concerts, dates and places during 1964 - 1965.
I have had the pleasure of hearing Larry Kane speak several times; he has a real gift and a real flair as a raconteur and this book is proof positive of that.A CD of interviews comes with the book and it is a bonus treat.
This is such a worthwhile book.I can't recommend it highly enough.
