   I have a good collection of Beatles books. One of my favorites is Mark   
   Lewisohn's "The Beatles Recording Sessions" copyright 1988. I was aware   
   that he had published an expanded version, so I shopped around and   
   bought a copy of "The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions" off of eBay.   
   It arrived today - oh, joy! Except it turns out that they are both the   
   same book - the "Complete" version was published in England and the   
   non-Complete one is American. The title, cover, and publishing credits   
   are different, but they're otherwise page-for-page identical. Doh!   
   Didn't do my research. Fortunately, it wasn't expensive.   
      
   Turns out what I *really* wanted was "The Complete Beatles Chronicle",   
   which includes updated content from "Recording Sessions" plus entries   
   about their live performances. I found a copy of that for a few dollars   
   and I'll have it in a week or two.
