All You Need Is Love by Steven Gaines

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Daily Mail - 'BOOK OF THE WEEK' The Observer - 'BOOK OF THE WEEK' 'I can think of no one better placed to tell the story behind The Beatles than Peter Brown.' -Pattie Boyd Harrison 'Interviews so controversial they were locked in a vault for 40 years' -The Times 'A fascinating snapshot of the tensions still festering between The Fab Four in 1980' -The Telegraph 'It truly is a jaw-dropping read' -Daily Express '...moments of utter fascination' -Irish Examiner 'A revealing oral history of the forces that spurred the band's breakup... drawing from a trove of never before published conversations. Beatles fans will be impatient to get their hands on this.' -Publishers Weekly '**** A gossipy, insider oral history' -MOJO magazine All You Need is Love is a ground-breaking oral history of the Beatles and how it all came to an end. Based on never-before-published or heard interviews with Paul McCartney, Yoko Ono, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, and their families, friends, and business associates, this is a landmark book, containing stunning new revelations, about the biggest band the world has ever seen. In 1980-1981 former COO of Apple Corp, Peter Brown and author Steven Gaines interviewed everyone in the Beatles' inner circle and included a small portion of the transcripts in their international bestselling book The Love You Make, which spent four months on the New York Times bestseller list. But left in their archives was a treasure trove of unique and candid interviews that they chose not to publish, until now. A powerful work assembled through honest, intimate, sometimes contradictory and always fascinating testimony, All You Need is Love is a one-of-a-kind insight into the final days, weeks, months and years of the Beatles phenomenon.

STEVEN GAINES is the New York Times bestselling author of Philistines at the Hedgerow: Passion and Property in the Hamptons and The Love You Make: An Insiders Story of the Beatles (with Peter Brown). His journalism has appeared in Vanity Fair, the New York Times, and New York magazine, where he was a contributing editor for 12 years. Mr. Gaines is the co-founder and a past vice-chairman of the Hamptons International Film Festival. He has lived in Wainscott, a small hamlet on the East End of Long Island, for 40 years. PETER BROWN is the former COO of Apple Corp, the Beatles' financial empire. He's been a Beatles intimate since their earliest days in Liverpool. Their passports were locked in his desk drawer. He was best man at John and Yoko's wedding, he introduced Paul to Linda Eastman, and perhaps the most charming of his credentials is that he's the only real person ever mentioned in a Beatles song: 'Peter Brown called to say, you can make it okay, you can marry in Gibraltar near Spain' from 'The Ballad of John and Yoko'. Mr. Brown is now chairman of the international public relations firm of Brown Lloyd James LTD.
