For many Beatles fans, the group's two-disc set from November 1968 is their favorite Beatles album. It was titled "The Beatles," but became known as "The White Album" for its pure white cover. At over 90 minutes long, it is filled with 30 incredible songs that range from rock 'n' roll to folk to heavy metal to calypso to country & western to raunchy rockers to lush ballads. There are parodies of the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan, along with a long sound collage unlike anything most listeners had ever heard before. The Beatles White Album and the Launch of Apple covers not only the group's remarkable double album, but also the birth of their Apple business venture and Apple Records' stunning debut with "Hey Jude," "Revolution" and Mary Hopkin's nostalgic classic "Those Were The Days."

Spizer, obviously a fan, does tend to get a bit self-congratulatory at the beginning of this book, which hints at some of the other frustrations I'll have with it as we go.
Yes, there's definitely some interesting insights in these books—even stuff that I didn't know (not that I'm an expert or anything)—unfortunately, there's also a lot of information that keeps coming up over and over in the same book, because the reader gets the US, the UK, and the Canadian reactions to everything.
I couldn't be bothered with the pages and pages (and pages and pages) of fan reactions. I just don't care.
The part I found most interesting was the song-by-song details. Unfortunately, they're not quite worth the price of admission. And the rest of the stuff, while interesting, tends to border on self-indulgent. ( )
