My guest today is Dafydd Rees who joins me to discuss his book 'The Beatles 1963 A Year in the Life'.
At the start of 1963, The Beatles were a successful local Liverpool band with one hit single; twelve months, two albums and the arrival of Beatlemania later, they were on the cusp of world domination.
Thoroughly researched and featuring interviews with 300 people - Dafydd shines a light onto that most thrilling of Beatle years.
