Just finishing up Mark Lewisohn's biography on the early years of The Beatles, Tune In. Unbelievable, definitive account. The only thing negative about it is that I have to wait seven years before the next volume.
...January 1963 up next.  Where did you hear it will take him seven years?
It's on my to read next list.

Well, first I read it on Wikipedia and then I had the good fortune of meeting him in person and I asked him about it. He said it isn't a hard date but that he is estimated 7 years between books. During a Q&A, he expanded on this saying that when he started writing he estimated something like 12 years for the whole project and it's now 10 years later. So now he's saying roughly 7 years, meaning that volume 3 will come out around 2027. As Lewisohn put it at the Q&A, this means we all have to eat healthily and exercise.
