Media reviews

"It's a pleasant enough read and never feels like a crass cash in but considering how much of it focuses on Saltzman's own spiritual discovery, it will please only the most completist Beatlmaniac."

Book description: New York, N.Y., USA: Viking Studio (Penguin Group) , 2000. A rare photographic portrait of the world's greatest band. When the Beatles first incorporated an Indian string instrument called the sitar in the first notes of their classic song Norwegian Wood, they would forever change the sound and direction of pop music. They were beginning a love affair with Indian mysticism and music that would take them on a historic pilgrimage to the ashram of the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. The Beatles in Rishikesh is photographer Paul Saltzman's unique and beautiful record of his historic meeting with Lennon, McCartney, Harrison, and Starr at this special moment in their musical and personal lives. Because no professional photographers were allowed in the ashram, Saltzman has captured the only quality photographs of the band during this time period. Featuring 75 original, previously unpublished photographs as well as personal anecdotes of encounters with the hip and beautiful personalities of the 1960s who visited the ashram such as Mia Farrow, Donovan, and Mike Love of the Beach Boys, The Beatles in Rishikesh is an exclusive and intimate look at the world's most influential band. It is the perfect book for Beatles fans, pop music aficionados, and anyone fascinated by this historic moment in music. Slight wear.. ISBN: 0670892610 . First Edition. Hard Cover.
