How the Beatles Changed the World

Oct 23, 2017

The fascinating story of the cultural, social, spiritual, and musical revolution ignited by the coming of the Beatles.

Featuring fresh, revealing interviews with key collaborators as well as a wealth of rarely-seen archival footage, this is a bold new take on the most significant band in the history of music and their enduring impact on popular culture.
