Interview link[edit]
I'd recommend to anyone interested in The Beatles to click on the "Catching up with Mark Lewisohn" link as I have just done. It's a fascinating interview. --kingboyk 22:42, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. LuciferMorgan 00:43, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
Article re-write[edit]
I've just re-written the article and added in a handful of references. I appreciate that more are needed, but it is quite difficult to find them, and some is better than none, I feel. Once I work out how to cite books, I'll add a few more. Estesark (talk) 04:51, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Trilogy worthy of page? "The Beatles: All These Years, Volume One – Tune In"[edit]
Hi Wikipedians,
I'm a new editor, so asking too many questions...
I wanted to raise the possibility of starting a page for Mark Lewisohn's proposed trilogy (Vol 1 out The Beatles: All These Years, Volume One – Tune In), which seems to me to be a notable achievement, and a project that is due to run to 2028. I think it's already fair to call it the definitive Beatles biog thus far, and it adds a number of new discoveries to the Beatles story.
And, that said, I have no idea how to set up a new page, even if everyone goes
yeah yeah yeah yeaaaahh
Maybe I'll learn tho!
Thank you. SkagwayEntropy (talk) 12:39, 20 June 2017 (UTC)
- Hi @SkagwayEntropy:. Absolutely, there are surely enough reliable sources to be able to reference and to be able to assert notability. Actually I'm surprised there isn't an article already. If you're still game please get to it! This primer may help. --kingboyk (talk) 20:02, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
Best drummer in the Beatles[edit]
"Lewisohn was responsible for identifying comedian Jasper Carrott as the source in 1983, of the famous remark, "Ringo isn't the best drummer in the world. He isn't even the best drummer in the Beatles."
That joke occurs in Radio Active, series 1 episode 5, first broadcast October 6th 1981. So Jasper Carrott may be 'a' source, but he can't be 'the source'. --Guyal of Sfere (talk) 20:57, 21 October 2017 (UTC)
Lewisohn is Jewish.[edit]
Tagged onto the end of the first main sentence, "Lewisohn is Jewish". So what? What relevance does that have?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 2a02:c7d:3217:c400:6dae:9191:71da:6980 (talk)
- Yes, exactly.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Brett Alexander Hunter (talk • contribs)
Conflict of interest editing[edit]
An IP editor from the New York/New Jersey-area (24.189.32.150) made several edits to this page mostly made up of unsourced material. After I rolled those and several other edits back, I posted a warning on the editors' talk page. The editor advised that he or she is "Working with Mr. Lewisohn's behalf [sic] on this currently", so I pointed to WP:CONFLICT. Tkbrett (✉) 15:57, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
