ABOUT DAVID
After being forced to retire from work at the age of 35 through ill health, David found therapy in studying The Beatles and Liverpool.
He spent 9 years working on his first book which has received international acclaim, and his second book “The Fab 104” has been universally lauded.
He is publishing a new book on The Beatles drummers with Garry Popper called “Looking for the Fourth Beatle” and is associate producer for the film “Looking for Lennon”.

“David has always been a stickler for detail and passionate for facts. If I needed to know some obscure piece of information relating to The Beatles or Liverpool I knew I could rely on him to provide the answer. With the publication of this book, all the information I could require is now handily available within these pages!"
