For most Beatles fans, Mark Lewisohn's irreplaceable The Beatles: Recording Sessions is the best way to learn about how the group's recordings came together. But for the engineer who must know what that unusual recording console or piece of outboard gear is in the session photographs, the answers have finally come in the form of Recording The Beatles: The Studio Equipment and Techniques Used to Create Their Classic Albums (Curvebender Publishing, $100, www.recordingthebeatles.com).
A whopping 500-plus pages, the book, researched by engineers Kevin Ryan and Brian Kehew during a 10-year period, details every piece of recording gear used by EMI's Abbey Road Studios, along with a pre-history of the studio, its staff and equipment from just prior. The book also features a large number of production histories of various songs from throughout the group's career, detailing how each was constructed, using what gear.
