Today, the Apple office is remembered as a place where almost anyone could come in off the street and meet one of the Beatles, get funding for an outlandish art project, or just drop in to the Apple Press Office for a drink and a quick smoke. It was also the company that the Beatles used to discover and develop many deserving artists, including such stars as Mary Hopkin, James Taylor, Badfinger, Hot Chocolate, Billy Preston and Mercury-award nominated classical composer, John Tavener. Stefan Granados has diligently been researching this project for several years and the book contains many previously unseen photographs.

Review Jul 21, 2007
By Example: Mark Twain
This is a fantastic book. I don't know where to begin. It tells the whole story of Apple and gives us a lot of info on the business/Apple side of the group. It is presented as interesting stories, and there are a lot of quotes from those involved. I have read a few hundred Beatle books, and this is in my top 5. If you want to hear about the music, though, the book will not be of much interest to you. This is about the business of Apple.

Required Reading for Fab Fanatics Jan 29, 2007
By Leggo Ami
This is a fantastic book. Detailed, well-researched and filled with the kind of arcana that this life-long Beatle fan loves. This is a history of the Apple Organization from its inception to today. It follows the careers of Apple employees, the few artists that were signed to the Apple record label, those signed to Apple music publishing and, of course, Beatles are found throughout. Based on research, but the author also conducted interviews with still living Apple staffers, artists, etc. Fascinating.
Those Were The Days: The Beatles Apple Organization Book May 13, 2012
By me the reviewer?
I bought the book, Those Were The Days An Unofficial History of The Beatles Apple Organization 1967-2002, because I wanted to know a little more about the Apple Core that was developed, run and owned in the late 1960's by the Beatles and is still in existance. I just started reading the book so I don't have much to say about it right now. There are some great unseen pictures in this book so I am sure there will be some great untold stories to go along with them. I find the story about Apple (Apple Records, Apple Clothing, Apple Publishing, Apple Electronics, Apple Studios, The Apple Retail Store, and everything else Apple) to be so amazing and very interesting. So, if this book is close to the true story of Apple then it should be great. If you are interested in the record business, in general, then this should be a good story to learn about them. Just take this story and multiple it by at least 10,000% (maybe more) then you have the story of any record company. I didn't have any problem with the getting this book from the seller so I guess I would say everything went well.
