Finding the Fourth Beatle Reviews

“Finding the Fourth Beatle manages to challenge what you thought you knew about Pete Best’s exit from, and Ringo Starr’s entry into, the group. Supported by evidence from an eyewitness who was closely involved in the saga, Bedford and Popper reveal that Best was not sacked/dismissed by either Epstein or The Beatles.” (Record Collector Magazine, February 2019)
