Both:

Way Beyond Compare: The Beatles' Recorded Legacy, Volume One: 1957-1965

That Magic Feeling: The Beatles' Recorded Legacy, Volume Two, 1966-1970

are readily available on Amazon at very reasonable prices.

You don't happen to have any stray copies of "Porkys Prime Cuts" laying around?

Reprints in most cases are impossible to finance. I would love to see another reprint of my Mach Schau book but it is impossible if you dont reprint several hundreds of it.
I have the Peckham book, too, as I provided some images.

I look forward Vol. 4

Hi. Actually, not impossible any more - have you looked into Amazon KDP Print On Demand? If you prepare it as a digital file you can sell it as a physical book on Amazon, with no up-front costs at all. When someone orders it, they print it and ship it out - no stock is kept, no inventory and so no costs to you as author. It's very do-able and in fact I'm about to publish a book of my own that way. It has several advantages over traditional publishing.

Be sure these things dont work with hardcover books and 500 pages.
I have a book out in Germany as "book on demand" and it costs 32 Euro as retail price for 300 pages and only a hand full of colour pages...

Both of these are great books and a must-have for any Beatles audiophile!

I've given up hope on ever being able to own Andrew Sandoval's updated book on The Monkees. It's been a year (or more?) and there has been no response to the box on his website asking to be notified if it is ever printed again. I couldn't get it in the five or six days it was available. I've never been able to get any of John Winn's books. Now it looks like I'll never see this one, either.
It is in print again (The paperback version, which, right now you can get for $75)
