Overview

"Foreign correspondent Ivor Davis was embedded with the Beatles on their triumphant l964 North American tour-as the only daily newspaper reporter to travel with them from start to finish. Rock and Roll history was writ large. Criss-crossing North America on their private jet, in limo number two, Davis sped from airport, to hotel, to venue and was given astonishing, 24/7 access to John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr. He was George's ghostwriter, and in his award winning, 60th Anniversary book, ""The Beatles and Me on Tour,"" Davis dishes up new, riveting, funny, behind the scenes stories that only an insider knows. When King Elvis Presley met the Beatles in l965-Ivor was in the room where it happened. When Bob Dylan introduced them to high grade pot, Davis was there. Joan Baez, Mick Jagger, Charles Manson, Tom Jones, The Beach Boys and Muhammed Ali all play walk-on roles in this unprecedented true story."
