Interview with BBC Hereford & Worcester

Earlier this week Visualising The Beatles authors John Pring and Rob Thomas sat down with the presenters of BBC Hereford & Worcester's Breakfast Show to discuss the UK edition of the book. Speaking with Toni and Elliot, the authors discuss the book and how the idea came about, as well as why they chose to work with the music of The Beatles. 

The show also features an unexpected phone interview with Bev Bevan of ELO and Black Sabbath, who was kind enough to speak very positively about the book. You can see a short video of the interview below:
