Condición: Near Fine. Signed/Limited. Fifty Years Adrift is Derek Taylor's richly personal memoir, conceived as an intimate gift for Beatles associate Alistair Taylor before being expanded into a full-scale work for Genesis Publications in 1984.

This copy from the collection of Stanley Dorfman, a painter, producer, and director who co-created the BBC television show Top of the Pops. Over the sixteen-year-span that he worked on Top of the Pops and the associated program In Concert, Dorfman met many famous musical acts, including the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Kinks, Jimi Hendrix, the Who, Led Zeppelin, Frank Sinatra, and Duke Ellington; it was during this time that Dorman befriended both Derek Taylor and George Harrison. Fifty Years Adrift is the show business memoir of Derek Taylor, who worked as the press officer for the Beatles for four years (1964, 68-70) and later became the publicist for acts like the Byrds, the Beach Boys, and the Mamas & the Papas. Even after departing from his position with the Beatles, Taylor remained in creative collaboration with individual bandmembers for decades. Taylor and George Harrison worked particularly closely: Taylor and Harrison co-wrote Harrison's autobiography, I, Me, Mine (1980); Harrison edited Fifty Years Adrift as well. Taylor's autobiography, supplemented with dozens of photographs and reproductions of concert posters and other promotional material, is a rich record of his decades-long career working alongside some of the most famous musical acts in history. Very Good. Signed. …

First edition, number 41 of 2,000 copies signed by George Harrison, Derek Taylor (the Beatles' publicist), and the illustrator Larry Smith. Fifty Years Adrift is the autobiography of Taylor and the companion to I Me Mine. "Taylor was many things: an elegant writer who could flip into the crudest, earthiest language; a press officer who would go beyond the call of duty at the same time as he placed advertorial copy in the pop magazines of the time; a Beatle intimate taking remedial acid trips with John Lennon at the same time as he was an employee, if not a servant. He defined and extended what it was to be a PR at the same time as he retained a cool, journalistic eye. In the end, he preserved what was best about the high Sixties for future generations" (Savage). Jon Savage, "The fifth Beatle, Derek Taylor", GQ. Quarto. Colour frontispiece with tissue guard, 82 plates (18 colour), facsimile tickets tipped to pp. 177 and 343, illustrations and colour printing in text. With errata slip loosely inserted.
