The Beatles : all these years
'Tune In' is the first volume of a highly-anticipated, groundbreaking biographical trilogy by the world's leading Beatles historian. Mark Lewisohn uses his unprecedented archival access and hundreds of new interviews to construct the full story of the lives and work of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Ten years in the making, Tune In takes the Beatles from before their childhoods through the final hour of 1962--when, with breakthrough success just days away, they stand on the cusp of a whole new kind of fame and celebrity. They've one hit record (\"Love Me Do\") behind them and the next (\"Please Please Me\") primed for release, their first album session is booked, and America is clear on the horizon. This is the lesser-known Beatles story--the pre-Fab years of Liverpool and Hamburg--and in many respects the most absorbing period of them all.--From publisher description.

COME TOGETHER
At 13, before rock and roll changed his life, Paul composed two catchy piano tunes, dance-band numbers like those his dad had played around Liverpool ballrooms in the Twenties with his own Jim Mac's Band. Under their leader Buddy Holly, the Crickets introduced the group sound: vocal, electric guitar, bass and drums.\\n

She had him, but he never her
Michael Watts here are no photos of John Lennon's parents together, none from their wedding day or any of the occasional encounters during their fragile seven-year wartime marriage, when Alf was on shore leave - a merchant seaman making hazardous Atlantic crossings - and Julia was home from usherette shifts at the Trocadero cinema in Liverpool.

Letters and emails: Have your say: A cure for two ills
Football's authorities could easily cure a couple of the game's maladies. First, there could be a ban on players pressing fingers to their lips or cupping their ears after scoring a goal.
