From the publisher's website (www link as at 28 August 2022):

There have been hundreds of books, even thousands, about the Beatles. They keep on coming but usually they cover familiar ground. Not this one. We know that The Road to Love Me Do: The Beatles & Their Contemporaries is unique.

If the Beatles’ music was ground-breaking, then we need to look at the ground it was going to break. We have unearthed practice tapes and recordings which reveal how these bands were developing in the late 50s and early 60s. It is also telling to recount how professional musicians from Liverpool fared before the Beatles.

As far as we know, this is the first music book that comes with QR codes. This enables you to hear most of the tracks in The Road to Love Me Do immediately. It is easy to use.

This is all exciting to us as we believe this is the first music book that offers the readers a unique listening experience.

The Road to Love Me Do looks at the early years of the Beatles in Liverpool and Hamburg and how they came to make that first Parlophone single in October 1962.

But it doesn’t look at the Beatles and their home lives. Rather, it looks at their musical contemporaries and sees how Gerry and the Pacemakers, the Searchers, the Swinging Blue Jeans, Kingsize Taylor and Rory Storm influenced each other.

Who on earth were Wump and his Werbles and how do they affect the story?

With extraordinary patience, Spencer and Mike have tracked down 100 different records – acetates on the road to Love Me Do.

There are surprises on every page in The Road To Love Me Do – no one can possibly say, “I know that!” It is not just history as it affects what we know today.
