Beatles - Here, There & Everywhere: Geoff Emerick's book

[Shakester]

Here’s what I wrote about it on the Whatcha Readin’ Mar 2011 Edition thread.

Here, There and Everywhere: My Life Recording the Music of the Beatles by Geoff Emerick.

I’m a huge Beatles fan, and I’m a musician and occasional sound engineer myself, so it’s right up my street. I’m loving the fact that producers and engineers are writing books about their work now.

However, despite all the fascinating aspects of the recordings themselves, Emerick is not that good a writer, nor is his ghost, and he’s very bitchy about everyone except G Emerick and P McCartney. Worth a read though, if (like me) the subject matter is relevant to your interests.

I stand by what I wrote.
