An Insiders's Diary of The Beatles, their million-dollar Apple empire & its wild rise & fall . . .
When American teenager, Richard DiLello, wandered into the Beatles Apple building in 1968, he was immediately appointed house hippie; he began making tea, rolling joints and listening to dozens of demo tapes. By the time Apple crumbled a few years later he was director of public relations.
Along the way he noted many of the stoned conversations he heard and the insane bits of business he witnessed: one-man bands auditioning in the reception, Hell's Angels taking over Savile Row and The Beatles playing on the roof. Full of period detail, 'The Longest Cocktail Party' is fast-paced, witty and immensely poignant about the demise of the Fab Four and the death of the 60s dream.
