I happened to run across this in a funky little used book store in Northern Ontario, and I couldn't pass it up.

Filled with great candid shots of the Beatles, both individually and grouped, as well as some excellent shots of the public in reaction to them, by Life photographer Terence Spencer (who initially had no idea who they were or what all the fuss was about), this is a beautiful time capsule that captures—much like McCartney's 1964: EYES OF THE STORM, that time when the Beatles were still new and the world was still sorting out what they thought of them.

And...of course...when the world, though intrigued, also knew they'd be old news in another six months.

A great capturing of a wonderful moment in time.
