	CNN.com - The teenager who shaped the Beatles - Apr 7, 2006
		Though Emerick wrote the book in part to share his memories of the Beatles' work -- to say, because many listeners aren't aware, that he played an important role in their development -- he's remarkably self-effacing in person.
		Emerick came to EMI in 1962 as a 15-year-old kid with a fascination with sound and music.
		But Emerick says he remembers Harrison as being appalled by some of the craziness of Beatlemania, and that his guitar playing and songwriting improved through the years.

		Emerick started at EMI as a fifteen-year-old assistant engineer—just in time to witness the first studio recording by the Beatles—and by the time he was nineteen he was their main recording engineer for the groundbreaking Revolver, turning the sounds they heard in their heads into the music that would change the world.
		Emerick also tells how the creative personalities of the band members led to frequent disagreements and long-held grudges, even as they were producing their greatest songs.
		Emerick’s take on the Fab Four and their transformation from mop-topped teeny-bopper idols to innovative sonic pioneers—and jaded international celebrities—is a look at the band like no other, from someone who spent countless hours at work with the group and saw collaborations and confrontations never described in previous accounts.

		It was Emerick and his crew who rigged the studio's equipment to produce sounds that its inventors never intended.
		Despite the fact that Emerick and his mates invented a recording technique a day, The Beatles never acknowledged that their help was exceptional, or even artistic.

		Sounds regarded as a "standard kit" in the modern studio were developed by Geoff and his colleagues using elastic bands and paper clips in response to the most remarkable works of musical imagination in the 1960s and beyond.
		Geoff's experience working in the somewhat stuffy days of EMI's Abbey Road Studios meant that he might have been found recording Otto Klemperer and the London Philharmonic one morning, have an afternoon date with Judy Garland or be at the controls for the Beatles' evening sessions.
		Geoff is perhaps most celebrated for having engineered Revolver, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and Abbey Road (the latter two earned him two of his three GRAMMY Awards).

	A Review of Geoff Emerick's Here, There and Everywhere (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		By amazing luck, Geoff Emerick was in his second day of employment at EMI Studios in London as a 15-year-old “assistant engineer” (hardly more than a go-fer), when an unknown band from Liverpool came in for their very first recording.
		Emerick does give the strong impression that as a musician Paul was conscientious, disciplined, and organized, and John more intuitive and experimental—and at times less self-confident and stable.
		Emerick is mostly kind, fair, and almost gentlemanly in his judgments, but there is enough honesty to generate some sparks.

	Beatles recording engineer saluted
		Emerick was honored Saturday with the Grammy's Tech Award, a distinction established in 1994 to recognize, as the Recording Academy puts it, "contributions of outstanding technical significance in the recording field." Consider his company: Winners have included Sony, which developed the compact disc, and Les Paul, who invented the electric guitar.
		When Emerick started working with the Beatles in 1963, his employer, EMI, ran a stuffy operation: An engineer on the clock couldn't even remove his tie or jacket without written permission.
		Emerick, who continues to record with Paul McCartney and Elvis Costello, is writing an autobiography that he says will serve up new stories about the band.

		Starting as a 15-year-old studio engineer, Emerick would go on to a play a key role in creating some of the most memorable music of the 20th century at a mere 19 years of age.
		Emerick also goes into great detail regarding EMI studio politics at a time during which the Beatles (as the biggest selling artists in the world) were given free creative rein.
		Emerick's personal recollections are most telling as he recalls George Harrison trying to bring songs like "Only A Northern Song" to the table, songs that would later be relegated to "lesser projects" like the Yellow Submarine soundtrack, which the Beatles apparently viewed as a mere fulfillment of a contractual obligation.

	Book Review: "HERE THERE AND EVERYWHERE-My Life Recording the Music of The Beatles" By Geoff Emerick, Howard Massey
		While Geoff Emerick wasn't the Beatles recording engineer during their early years at EMI (he started as an assistant engineer), his employment there did grant him occasional views of The Beatles at work during the time of 1962-1966 when Norman Smith was their engineer.
		Emerick takes you behind the scenes of EMI in the '60s and exposes several of their antiquated and often outrageous rules, such as the rules regarding microphone placement (which he helped break and changed the way artists forever recorded in the process!).
		Geoff Emerick went on to win a total of 3 Grammy awards for his Beatles work.
