Cool art book with illustrations of Beatles lyrics by various artists (both professional and fan art included). Fun for Beatles fans or art fans alike. ( )

Time trip through the sixties via the Beatles lyrics and fantastic vintage illustrations. If you didn't live through those times, you owe it to yourself to know. "Though she was born a long, long time ago, your mother should know, your mother should know." Imagine a time before personal computers, when people didn't steal music over the internet, instead they went to concerts: Woodstock, Beatles, Monterrey Pop, Newport. They opened beer bottles with 'church keys' and drove hand-painted, superannuated VW camper vans. Women (and men) let their hair grow as nature intended. Hash, LSD, meth were ubiquitous. It was a great time, believe me! Except, that is, if you got drafted into the army to fight the big corporation's war to keep markets open in southeast asia. Bummer! Well, hey! Listen to the Abbey Road album, break out a joint, read The One Dimentional Man, The Dharma Bums; see The Battle of Algiers or Inside North Vietnam in your local theatre. Turn on, Tune in, Drop out.
