Half a century after Revolver exploded onto the pop scene, the artist behind the album cover presents his side of the Beatles' story The narrative is presented through a striking mixture of words and black-and-white graphics "...It is good for me to see the other side of a story I know so well and to realise aspects like the sheer panic that Klaus must have felt." (Paul McCartney) The monochrome pop-art style of the Revolver album has become an integral part of the Beatles brand. In this book the artist behind the cover reveals the source of his inspiration, as well as the tale of how this cover grew from a sketch made on a kitchen table in an attic flat into one of the most iconic pieces of cover art in history. Klaus Voorman was a close friend and confidant of the band. He has lived on the pop scene his entire life, and as the artist behind the Revolver cover, he is uniquely positioned to give insight into Beatles lore. 8 colour, 170 b/w
