Beautiful book incl rare photographs. Personally signed by joe flannery. Limited hardback edition. Signed edition sold out worldwide. Joe flannery has been described as the ;secret beatle;, and as the business associate and partner of brian epstein, he became an integral part of the beatles; management team during their rise to fame in the early 1960s. Standing in the wings is flannery;s account of this fascinating era, which included the controversial dismissal of pete best from the group (nothing to do with london, but matters back in liverpool), brian epstein;s fragility, and the importance of the star club in hamburg.This book is not simply a biography, as it also considers issues to do with sexuality in 1950s liverpool, the vagaries of the music business at that time and the hazards of personal management in the;swinging sixties;. At its heart, standing in the wings provides an in-depth look at flannery;s personal and professional relationship with epstein and his close links with the fab four. Shortly before john lennon;s murder in 1980, it was flannery who was one of the last people in the uk to talk to the great man. Indeed, flannery remains one of the few ;beatle people; in liverpool to have the respect of the surviving beatles, and this is reflected in this timely and revealing book.
