Thing is with Mal, he's someone who was in the inner circle from pre-fame to the end. So he's pretty integral to their story. And Ken Womacks stuff is good.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

It struck me in the middle of the night last night, haven't I heard about this before?  ;)

. . . I just read this on Wikipedia (so, a grain or two of salt is needed) last night: "In December 2021 it was reported that a biography of Evans, written by Beatles scholar Kenneth Womack, was to be published by HarperCollins' Day Street [imprint] in 2023, followed the next year by material from Evans' diary and archives." Something to look forward to.

Don't feel bad. That type of thing is a regular occurrence in my brain. The good side to that is that I enjoy making new discoveries. ;) The name Ken Womack didn't ring a bell but an I do recognize one of his titles on Amazon. I'm glad to see that Mal is going to be recognized and his story told.

I just caved and ordered this, even though money is quite tight and the holidays are just about here (and I'm still getting through Philip Norman's book on George). It just looks so appealing.

This suggestion popped up on Amazon: My first present for my first not-yet-conceived grandchild.  ;D

They showed that to me, too. They know us so well.  ;)

I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on it, Euan, after you finish.

That's what I'd been thinking given that Patterson is generally known for fiction.
