Book excerpt: "The Beatles Rubber Soul to Revolver" is the latest installment in Bruce Spizer's Beatles Album Series. As the title implies, the book covers two of the Beatles most important albums, Rubber Soul and Revolver, as well as Capitol's Yesterday And Today LP and the singles associated with these albums, including "Day Tripper," "We Can Work It Out," "Nowhere Man," "Paperback Writer," "Yellow Submarine" and "Eleanor Rigby." Rubber Soul and Revolver set new standards for pop and rock records, and presented a maturing and evolving Beatles to the world. As Beatles producer George Martin noted, "For the first time, we began to think of albums as art on their own, as complete entities." This is not to take anything away from the quality of the songs themselves. The 16 tracks recorded during the Rubber Soul sessions are among the group's finest, with half being included on The Beatles 1962 - 1966 hits collection. With Revolver, the Beatles were looking for more color in their recordings, trying new instruments and techniques. But they were not using studio wizardry to cover weaknesses; they were looking for new sounds to enhance their already brilliant songs.In addition to the usual chapters on the British, American and Canadian perspectives, the book contains an extensive treatment on the infamous Butcher Cover and its replacement Trunk Cover, featuring all of the significant images from the photo sessions, and the true story behind the controversial cover. There are also chapters on the recording sessions and album covers, as well as on the news, music and films of the era to place these albums in their proper context. And, of course, dozens of recollections of these great records submitted by Beatles fans.The Beatles Rubber Soul to Revolver is a 9" x 9" hardcover book to match the other books in Bruce Spizer's Beatles Album Series. At 240 pages, it is the largest book in the series and contains over 200 color and original black and white images.
