Kenneth Womack om "Living The Beatles Legend"
Mal Evans var altid i nærheden af The Beatles. Gruppens egen "Mr. Fix it" kunne hjælpe med alt! Han var med på tour, på private rejser, i køkkenet, i varevognen, i mødelokalerne og selvfølgelig i studiet, hvor han kunne sætte strenge på og skaffe alternative rygemidler på ingen tid. Peter Jacksons "Get Back"- epos viste fint hvor vigtig han var for The Beatles. Med hammer, kuglepen og te. Og nu har han endelig fået sin helt egen biografi: "Living The Beatles Legend", hvor vi kommer med bag kulisserne i Mal Evans li...

Yksi tärkeimmistä Beatles-kirjoista sai päivänvalonsa marraskuussa 2023. Beatlesin roudari ja ystävä Mal Evans eli erikoislaatuisen elämän yhtyeen tukijalkana. Hän piti päiväkirjaa sekä kirjoitti omaelämäkerran joka jäi julkaisematta hänen traagisen kuolemansa seurauksena 1976. Hänen kadonneeksi luullut muistiinpanot, valokuva ja päiväkirjat seikkailivat maailmalla kunnes ne palautuivat Mal Evansin perheen haltuun 80-luvulla. Muutama vuosi sitten Malin poika otti yhteyttä professori Kenneth Womackiin tarjoten mahdollisuuden tutkia materiaalia sekä tehdä aluksi kirja Living the Beatles Legend: The Untold Story of Mal Evans.
