Before sevenyearold Sam Smith discovered the Beatles, he and his father had little in common. Like so many other kids his age, Sam was drawn first to the Fab Four by their trivia as much as by their music and personalities. Peter Smith was content to point Sam to all the clues of Paul McCartneys putative demise, to reveal who "Julia" was, and so forth. But soon the Beatles opened the two Smiths to each other, and to a harmonious new friendship. They found themselves using the bands songs and exploits to fuel discussions of lifes splendid complications friendship, teamwork, romance, art and its inevitable sorrows failure, betrayal, and mortality.Music fans will delight in this singular celebration of the Beatles history and continuing crossgenerational appeal. Smith takes us everywhere the Fab Four took him and Sam: from the boys Beatledrenched bedroom to the circus of devotion that is Beatlefest to Paul McCartneys childhood bedroom in a Liverpool row house. Ultimately, the two Smiths come to realize that the object of their affection transcends any facts that could ever be amassed about it. The Beatles essence isnt in Liverpool or London or in heavily annotated lyric sheets. It is, of course, in their songs, and in how they help us understand ourselves and connect with each other.With a wit and clarity reminiscent of of Nick Hornbys High Fidelity and Stefan Fatsiss Word Freak, Smith limns the intensity of an obsession. And he evokes with wry intelligence the love a father and son can share.
