I found the book hard to put down and did not want it to end. What I came away with was this; The Beatles were truely very nice people. Of course we all knew that they were geniuses and witty, but they were also very respectful and not one bit phony. I've read at least 15 other books on the Beatles and I saw a side of them in this book that the other books didn't show. Good job Larry.. Unreliable Eyewitness Larry has a fascinating story to tell, but it is told from memory with minimal fact-checking. Things he claims to be fact are just plain wrong. At least two times in the book, he describes a Beatle (first Ringo, later on George) reading a "Green Hornet" comic book.

. This is the most detailed description yet of the Beatles' American tours, and one of the few books on the band written in the past decade that can be considered indispensable.Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc. Outside of a description of a "happy" Lennon urging his band mates to "take your pick" from a group of hookers provided by an Atlantic City concert promoter, this highly entertaining account by broadcast journalist Kane, who covered the tour at the time, is as discreet about the Fab Four's sexual adventures as they were, although Kane notes that "women came and went from the Beatles' floor in most hotels." But in all other respects, from fiery airplanes and rioting fans to encounters with Bob Dylan, Joan Bae
The only American reporter in the official press party, Larry Kane obtained exclusive, revealing interviews with John, Paul, George, and Ringo. "We had a crazy party the night we met Dylan," Paul recounts. It was 40 years ago -- more or less -- that a 22year-old broadcast journalist from Florida was invited by manager Brian Epstein to travel with the Beatles to every stop on their first North American tours. Ticket to Ride includes a 60minute audio CD featuring rare interviews.. Hear John Lennon's early public criticism of the Vietnam War, and learn about the night the Beatles met Bob Dylan.

Ticket to Ride, illustrated with more than 30 photographs, captures a rare time in history, gracefully melding the story of the Beatles revolution with the changing tenor of the country. Fortunately, Kane saved his original notes and tapes, and shares them here for the first time. That material provides the basis for his intimate look back at the phenomenon of the Fab Four, and insights into the humor and personality of each group member
