Once again I get to sit down and discuss a bloody good book that I have read. Today, that book is Love and Let Die: Beatles, Bond and the British Psyche, by John Higgs. Come join us as we discuss the book, Bond, The Beatles, and a bunch of digressional topics that I can't even remember...
This book is a perfect encapsulation of how British pop culture changed forever with the simultaneous release of "Love Me Do" and "Dr. No" on the same day in 1962. It covers both the wider social trends of the day like art, cultural identity, gender roles, sexuality and masculinity, whilst also telling the stories of the Beatles and Bond in their own right!
I wholeheartedly recommend Love and Let Die: Beatles, Bond and the British Psyche and you can find it in all good book shops, both online and on the high street.
Please enjoy. Peace and love,
Sam
