BARRY Miles is one of the most respected music industry biographers. His writing always reflects his close association with his subject matter and with The Beatles he excels himself.
Paul McCartney acknowledges that it was Barrie who introduced him to London's avant garde scene and it was at Barry's London flat where Paul first read the likes of William Burroughs and the beat poets.
When Barry opened the Indica Books and Gallery in London and co-founded the International Times, Paul helped him support the ventures. Indica was where John met Yoko.
The Beatles: A Diary is a fascinating chronicle, a 320 page, fact-filled account of The Beatles.
