About the author
The Beatles were an English rock band, formed in Liverpool in 1960. With members John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, they became widely regarded as the foremost and most influential act of the rock era. Rooted in skiffle, beat, and 1950s rock and roll, the Beatles later experimented with several genres, ranging from pop ballads and Indian music to psychedelia and hard rock, often incorporating classical elements in innovative ways. In the early 1960s, their enormous popularity first emerged as "Beatlemania", but as the group's music grew in sophistication, led by primary songwriters Lennon and McCartney, they came to be perceived as an embodiment of the ideals shared by the counterculture of the 1960s.

If you are a beginner, this is a great book. I pick up songs quickly so found myself wanting something a bit more like the original music immediately. I should give this a 5 star but didn't because I don't think the book description properly described the intent of this book, to only play the very basics, not sounding like the actual song or chords used in the recording.
I find myself a lot not even recognizing the song I'm playing, but maybe it's just me.
I love the Beatles and will search for something a bit more "complicated" and true to the song's roots.
It is an "easy guitar" book so if you are looking for arrangements that sound like the records this is not the book. If you are looking for arrangements you can play for something you know to make practice and learning more interesting this is the perfect book for Beatles fans.
All the songs are very playable by beginning guitarists once you learn the notes in first postion. The songs are all in music notation (no tabs in this one) so if you don't read music look elsewhere.
If you just want to be able to play Beatles songs that your friends will recognize and can sing along with, this is a great book.
I bought two more so me and my sons could all be on the same page!
I still can't play all the chords for every song, but the number of dog-eared pages that I can play keeps increasing.I really like how for every song, it gives you the first note on the guitar for the vocals.
I also own "Beatle" The Complete Scores, but I only pull it out when I want to know what the original notes were.

It is one of many Beatles guitar books in my collection which represent different levels of complexity, some of which have been based on the actual recorded versions and others which come pretty close, although it would not be true to say that this is the case with this particular one. However, it does serve another very important purpose by providing just the absolute basics of melody and chord progressions necessary for those wishing to evolve an approach to playing Beatles guitar music, without being overwhelmed .
