TeaFlix Tuesday with Scott Freiman (Beatles Author)
Today on TEAFLIX, we’re going inside the music of four lads we thought we knew rather well.
Our guest is Beatles author, lecturer, composer and musician Scott Freiman, creator of the acclaimed Deconstructing the Beatles series, which has taken audiences deep inside some of the most famous recordings in popular music history.
Scott joins us to talk about his fascinating new book, co-written with noted Beatles historian and author Professor Kenneth Womack, *The Beatles’ Touring Era: Inside the Fab Four’s Musical Artistry, Song by Song, 1962–1966*, being published by Bloomsbury Academic in November 2026.
And despite the title, this isn’t simply another book about Beatlemania, screaming fans and life on the road.
Scott and Ken take us inside the actual music, beginning with *Please Please Me* and following that extraordinary journey through *With the Beatles*, *A Hard Day’s Night*, *Beatles for Sale*, *Help!*, *Rubber Soul* and ultimately *Revolver*.
In just four astonishing years, John, Paul, George and Ringo evolved from a hardworking Liverpool rock and roll band into musicians and songwriters who were completely reimagining what could be accomplished inside a recording studio.
The book explores the songs, instruments, arrangements, recording techniques and the invaluable contributions of George Martin, Norman Smith and Geoff Emerick, revealing how those records we’ve heard hundreds of times were actually put together.
So put the kettle on, turn up the volume, and prepare to hear the Beatles with a fresh pair of ears.
