LIVERPOOL ECHO 5 May 2018

“Given their worldwide fame, tales of the Beatles are 10 a penny, so it's rare for fresh and original insights to be uncovered. But a new book, Just Like Starting Over, does just that, providing readers with a window into the bands beginnings, from a young man who was there to witness it all. Charles Roberts, of Woolton, provides a first hand account of life growing up in Liverpool and his days at the birth of the Quarrymen, right through to the beginnings of the Fab Four. His memories are truly special and his recollections of the sights and sounds of 1950s Liverpool will no doubt bring back memories for many readers who lived through what was arguably the city's most exciting musical era.”

“A must read for anyone who hungers to learn about The Boys' Liverpool Roots. Mr Roberts's modest and wry sensibilities shine as he fills in the early timeline, with much fascinating context, colour and detail.. Photos accompany his very readable, no nonsense, yet fun insider's account of first meetings, happenings, personalities and influences, written as spoken.

Every Beatle and Q-Men scholar should gather at least one new pearl from this wonderful book. Thank you, Sir, for sharing your experiences- and setting the record straight.”

“Just Like Starting Over, what a fabulous read this is for any Beatle fan. It tells of the genesis of the band that became the Beatles, and the antics that these teenagers got up to in those years. All these memories of those days are so important and should be embraced before they are lost forever.”

Very happy Beatle fan Guy Griffiths form Blackpool.
