They chased down Paul McCartney in a park and became the first band signed to Apple, the Beatle's new recording company. This is not just another story about the Beatles and the magical l960s, although they do feature heavily in it. It¿s also the tale of reaching for the stars and achieving every teenage boy¿s ambition. It¿s an adventure that took Paul on an exciting journey from the back streets of Liverpool in l959 to the heart of the Beatles empire in London in l967. Paul McCartney says that "Paul Tennant's story about Liverpool and his year with Apple is fascinating. I am pleased to have played a small part in it." |
