Without wishing to appear to undervalue those who kindly rendered

special assistance with the Live.' and Sessions aspects of the overall

work — but who've already had merit mentions in those previous

publications — here is the " special thanks to " bit for the radio,

television, film and video element of this book, and for other

noteworthy help in recent years: to George Martin for his lovely

foreword; to Jon Keeble at ITC Library Sales for finding and

enabling use to view rare film; to Bill Parker at Thames Television,

preserver of the ABC/Thames written archive and optimist that it

goes to a safe home come January 1993; to Sylvia Cowling, film and

tape librarian at Granada Television and the remarkably patient

Denise Carlin in Granada's written archive; to Ruth Edge, Jenny

Keen and Sarah Hobbs at EMI for always friendly help, tea, and

uncovering a bulging boxfile of hitherto unseen recording sessions

documents; to Jamie Leasing for sleuthing the addresses of so many

long gone US concert venues; to Pier Schreuders for inspiration,

information and much, much else; to Allan Kozinn for always being

at the end of a fax line at 3.00 am New York time, audio/video tapes,

advice and, with lovely wife Johanna, fine hospitality; to Fred

Vincent for untold help and answering hundreds of questions before I

even needed to ask; and to Nell Burley at Apple Corps for being a

friendly and helpful aide, and for sharing the fruits of her marvellous

research, soon to he seen on a video machine near you. Grateful

thanks go to my agent, Bill Hamilton of A M Heath & Company, and

to Piers Murray Hill, David Heslam, Mike Evans, Anna Smith, Bryan

Dunn and Ashley Western (a real Fixer Upper) at Octopus Illustrated

Publishing.

Most of all, infinite love and thanks to Tarja, Oliver and Thomas,

who have so patiently put up with a stressed, tired, pre-occupied and

all too rarely present husband/father.

This book is dedicated, with love, to my late mother, who

instilled in me a keen appreciation of talent and all the other fine

things in life – especially the Beatles.
