1966. The Beatles' last concert; the release of Revolver, their first album of songs not intended for live performance. They experimented with avant-garde ideas, and angered many when they spoke their minds on issues of politics, war, and religion. Turner looks at the historical events that made an impact on the group, and shows how the music they made in turn profoundly affected culture, and served to transform popular music for decades to come.
