**MiCannes Award Music Book of the Year**
The first full-length biography of Mal Evans, the Beatles’ beloved roadie, assistant, confidant and friend
A towering figure in horn-rimmed glasses, Malcolm ‘Mal’ Evans was an invaluable member of the Beatles’ inner circle. Serving as their long-time roadie, personal assistant and protector, he was a sometime lyricist, occasional performer and regular fixer at the height of the group’s fame and beyond.
But Mal’s dedication to his beloved ‘boys’ and his own desire for stardom took its toll, leading to the dissolution of his marriage and his untimely death in January 1976.
Until now, Mal’s extraordinary life has remained shrouded in mystery. Drawing on hundreds of exclusive interviews and with full access to Mal’s unpublished archives – including his personal diaries, manuscripts and memorabilia – renowned Beatles scholar Kenneth Womack paints the first complete portrait of this complicated figure at the heart of the Beatles’ story.
Living the Beatles Legend is a fascinating but ultimately tragic tale about life at the edges of superstardom.
This historical autobiography of Mal Evans, a rock legend and integral part of the Beatles journey, is a must-read for all music enthusiasts. It's a deep dive into the world of performing arts, exploring various styles and genres that shaped the music industry.
For fans of Allan Kozinn (The McCartney Legacy), Paul Mccartney (The Lyrics), Ilse Niccolini (How The Beatles Knew), and Mark Lewisohn (The Beatles).
