It seems that Eric Krasker's excellent book about the Beatles before they became famous, only available in French until now, may shortly be coming out in English.
A special Xmas gift for the serious fan?
Who was Raymond Jones?How many sets were played on the Star Club recording?Did Stu Sutcliffe die from a blow to the head from Lennon?Why did they really get rid of Pete Best?
A thorough historic research on all these questions and more.
Believe me it's a real treat.

Well Bobber (and everyone else interested in early Beatles) I'm afraid the book will now be coming out at the end of 2008.
Eric sent me a message on April 2nd to explain why the date had been put back. Basically he wants to get as much new information into the book as possible.
So there'll be new info concerning Stuart Sutcliffe, the first Hamburg visit in 1960 (thanks to two German Beatles specialists, Thorsten Knublauch and Axel Korinth) and the latest Star Club recordings news.
So just a few more months to wait but for an improved book.
Roll on October!
