Review: Excellent. - Having been a Beatles fan since the very beginning the mono versions of their earlier records were all I knew. Many of the stereo versions that eventually came out were a bit of a disappointment. After reading The Beatles in Mono it confirms that I wasn't just being nostalgic in preferring the mono versions. This book brings back the initial feelings of excitement when hearing the records for the first time. I've read many many books on The Fabs and, believe me, this is one of the best. Better than 'Revolution in the Head' and easier to absorb than 'Tell me Why.' Well balanced, intelligent and extremely well written.
Review: If you've nothing better to do. - This is a reasonably entertaining trawl through The Beatles' mono catalogue. It contains much in the way of the author's opinion but very little in established fact, which makes it a fairly useless addition to the existing canon of Beatles writings. Most of the facts presented here have been dis-credited/ are rendered irrelevant, by thorough research - for example: does the author know 'why' the lead and backing vocals on the mono version of the Help! single are different from the stereo, or 'why' the mono sound is murkier than the stereo? The answer is too complex to relate here but it would have been refreshing to have come across it in this book as it is one of the major events in the Beatles' mono/stereo story. -Or how about the final guitar riff at the end of What Goes On? -Or why the separation on those early stereo mixes is so wide? For a more factual based approach (and a more worthwhile one), I would suggest that the author, and any potential reader, track down a copy of Mark Lewisohn's 'Complete Beatles Recording Sessions' or 'The Complete Beatles Chronicle'. In addition, 'Recording The Beatles' by Kevin Ryan and Brian Kehew is a fascinating read, (and will tell you the answer to the Help! question too). The reason I mention these books is that they contain between them about as much knowledge on The Beatles' recording sessions as is known. (Unfortunately the prices of these books can be quite high). To finish, this is really only worth the bother if you're paying the Kindle price (and even then it should be no more than £1). Otherwise you'd be better off sitting down and listening out for the differences yourself. If you've come this far looking for a book about The Beatles in mono, I heartily recommend that you seek out the books mentioned above.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good over view
*by M***D on 9 July 2017*

Good over all analytical of the Beatles catalogue, The omission of Album covers etc are a minus to the Book, but I think the cost would have been too much for Andrew, as he informs us that the cover photo is in the 'Public domain' and can be used in general, (I think, I am paraphrasing him), but the overall commentary is well researched and he qualifies everything he said about each track. I dodn't agree with everything he said, but that is always good for debate, certainly where the Beatles are concerned!
