I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve been selected to sit on the Editorial Board for The Journal of Beatles Studies, published by Liverpool University Press.
The Journal of Beatles Studies, co‐edited by Holly Tessler (University of Liverpool) and Paul Long (Monash University) and published biannually in association with the University of Liverpool, is the first open‐access academic journal devoted to rigorous, peer‐reviewed research on The Beatles.
Launched in September 2022, it features original essays, notes, and reviews that interrogate and expand Beatles scholarship across disciplines – historical, musicological, cultural, economic and beyond. Its aims are to foster emerging research in new contexts and communities, challenge prevailing narratives, and assess The Beatles’ enduring cultural and economic impact.
It’s a true honour to be on the Editorial Board for such an important publication, helping to position The Beatles as a prism for broader historical, social, and cultural enquiry.
Dear Chris, (if i may) what great news. i loved your show .. what a listen and what an education it was for me. i had 8 or 9 beatles albums as a kid in the 60’s every birthday and xmas. would sleep with hey jude on repeat on my little box brownie of record player! a fanatic….it was the nearest thing to real beauty in my world and i still have an unhealthy 🙂 idol worship running. i just wanted write and say good on ya!
fun fact something like 600 barber shops went out of business in the two years following the beatles tour in 63 or 4. you could also buy these plastic beatle mops. tho i never had one.
So thanks for all your brilliance
Be well and thankyou
