Rock Candy: The Beatles, Vol. II
About
The first volume of Rock Candy: The Beatles was written almost 15 years ago, concurrent with the first edition of The Quotable Beatles and To the Toppermost of the Poppermost. As a result, many quotes from the former and songs from the latter were included in Rock Candy, to add to its variety.
The same is true today, with this second Rock Candy Beatles volume. A second volume of The Quotable Beatles lives alongside it, and some chapter headings from that book are included here as trivia. And all the solo #1 hits of the Beatles, which form the latter half of the revised Toppermost, make great entries here as well.
In addition, some items from The Beatles Guide to Love & Sex, The Progressive Beatles, and The Classical Beatles – all books written in the interim since the publication of the original Rock Candy – have been included here.
And there’s some fresh content written just for this new volume: “George Nobody in Benson”, “Brian vs. Ed Sullivan”, “Wonderwall”, etc., to hopefully keep this new book fresher still.
