What makesGet Backsuch an interesting resource is that it’s a firsthand account of this period in their career from the bandmates themselves. Several authors — including Rolling Stone’sRob Sheffield — have covered the bands’ career in exhaustive detail, butThe Beatleshaven’t told their own story since theBeatlesAnthology, a collaborative autobiography of the band released in 2000. That book was mostly derived from interviews conducted in the 1990s forThe Beatles Anthologydocumentary, whereasGet Back gives you a glimpse intoThe Beatles’state of mind in 1969, warts and all.
Many of the pictures in this book have been previously unreleased, and they offer the clearest look we’ve ever gotten from this era in The Beatles‘ career.
A Target-exclusive version is available for $37, and includes four lobby cards (promotional items given out during the Let It Be film release). You can also buy both the book and Target’s Let It Be vinyl with this Beatles T-Shirt bundle.
