Description: As recommended by USA Today and excerpted on RollingStone.com! Still the Greatest is a love song to the songwriting and recording achievements of Paul, John, George, and Ringo after each struck out on his own. In this creative history, Jackson selects the best songs by each...
Review Quotes: In this creative history of the solo careers of John, Paul, George, and Ringo, Jackson reimagines the artists' individual output into "fantasy albums" that could have been put out had the Fab Four remained an intact group--"The Beatles Albums That Should Have Been" (which would have made a fine subtitle). Nearly 200 songs have been cherry-picked, with extensive information offered, such as musicians, chart history, story behind the creation of the song, and the meaning of the lyrics. The chummy tone and the sheer subjectiveness make this unsuitable as a reference work but loads of fun for Beatles fans.
