I have just learned that Geoff Emerick, who was the recording engineer for the Beatles from 'Revolver' onwards died a few days ago aged 72 from a heart attack.
His book, "Here, there and everywhere", should be compulsory reading for all Beatles fans and also for all people interested in how records were made in the analog days. It should be noted that this book is controversial "for its allegedly unfavourable portrayal of Harrison,bias towards McCartney, and belittling and dismissal of Harrison and Starr's contributions" as well as "the most negative depiction of Martin as a record producer" (quotes from Geoff's wiki page).
