In my humble opinion, there is no other band like The Beatles As of this writing, we are sixty years after their arrival in America and their first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show. They are a band that changed with the times during the 60s, with their music, fashion and message, which reflected the evolution of what was going on at that time.

The Long & Winding Phone is a collection of telephone interviews that span over the sixteen years. The interviews are with individuals who have either had direct relationships with The Beatles as a group or individually as well as those who have admired their music and work so much, so that they pay tribute to these four gentlemen in their own way. It shows the impact and love for a band that has continued to penetrate our culture and our lives to this day.

The interviews appear as they were originally written with original publication date. I've included an updated follow up at the end of each interview to reflect on how I perceived the interview or any lasting impressions and thoughts. I hold positive intentions that you will enjoy reading the interviews as much as I enjoyed conducting them.
