The question is, how many books can you have on one subject? I guess I still don't know the answer to that question as I just picked up Philip Norman's bio on John Lennon. If there is one thing that there is no shortage of around here, it's books on the Beatles. I'm not even going to count how many I have. But I've read good things about this book and it actually has information that has never been written about before. I know that's hard to believe, with as much written about the Beatles. But already, just in the first fifty pages I've read stuff no one else ever mentioned. Mostly about John's Father and his side of the family. Normally John's Father is given short shift and the Lennon side of the family is rarely if at all mentioned. Plus Mr. Norman is the writer of one of my favorite books on the Beatles already,
Shout. I'll let everyone know how the book is when I finish it.
