**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.
