Pre:Fab!: The story of one man, his drums, John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison

PRE:FAB! is the captivating memoir of Colin Hanton, telling of his early years as a musician and his career with John Lennon’s Quarry Men. Colin drummed with the band for three years between 1956-1959, during which time both Paul McCartney and George Harrison joined the group. In 1958, Colin played on the very first single that John, Paul and George ever recorded-their versions of Buddy Holly’s That’ll Be the Day and a Paul and George composition: In Spite Of All The Danger . Co-written over a two-year period by Colin Hanton and Colin Hall, custodian for Mendips (John Lennon’s childhood home), PRE:FAB! tells the story of these history-in-the-making days . Colin Hanton’s memories serve as an insight not only into his early musical adventures with John, but also into the social history of war-time and post-war Liverpool. PRE:FAB! has also been made into a feature-length, documentary film that is COMING SOON!
