The Beatles Years Magazine

The fourth and final issue of The Beatles Years opens in late 1968 with the release of ‘The White Album’ and charts their astonishing creative achievements through to the break-up and beyond. We assess the recording of the Let It Be album, take a behind-the-scenes look at their final, iconic rooftop performance, unravel the myths and misconceptions behind their break-up and take an in-depth look at the recording of their swansong studio album, Abbey Road. 

This 132-page collector’s edition also explores life beyond The Beatles, including the landmark Anthology project and the deeply poignant Free As A Bird recording of the 90s, as well as the exhilarating 2018 documentary account of the band’s touring years, Eight Days A Week.

Fifty years on from the break-up of The Beatles, their music continues to inspire successive generations of new fans. A recent survey by Spotify concluded that 30% of the 1.7 billion annual streams of songs by The Beatles were by listeners in the 18-24 age group. This issue reflects the timeless inspirational appeal of The Beatles music and encapsulates their enduring legacy.
