Zapple was the experimental division of Apple Records, designed to record, produce, and distribute "poetry, literature, electronic music, avant-garde performances, lectures, anything off-beat, Beat, experimental or strange" (Barry Miles 472), at budget prices.
The record was produced by Miles who wrote to Brautigan on 3 Oct. 1968 outlining the project "as a magazine in sound and possibly to include certain literature, artwork and illustrations as well" and asking if he were interested.
Richard Brautigan recorded a selection of poems and stories, often giving the words a heightened reality with sound effects—a stereo recording of the actual stream referred to in 'Trout Fishing in America', for instance.

 8-Track of the Moment: George Harrison - Electronic Sound

The shorter "Mersey Wall," recorded in Harrison's Esher bungalow with his own Moog, is a low-key, drifting affair, not quite as virtuosic in its handling of abstract sound, nor nearly as theatrical.
And when you consider that synthesizers were only capable of playing one note at a time and sounds could not be stored or recalled with the push of a button, the achievement becomes even more remarkable.

While not every possible version of a release is given, Engelhardt lists the recordings in their "best available" format as far as quality of recording.The bonus CD includes three previously unreleased tracks produced by John Lennon and provided courtesy of Ray Cicala and permission of Yoko Ono.
Unfortunately, there are some apparent inaccuracies in some of the information recorded (most glaringly in a reference to the date of John Lennon's wedding and the birth of his son Julian) which tends erode some of the author's credibility.
The five chapters dish up such dazzling delights as the 'Strawberry Fields'/'Penny Lane' prologue; the recording of the album; the cover, including a who's-actually'who that beats all previous roll-calls into a hole in the ground; spin-off books, documents, and last but certainly not least, a seven-part discography, including bootlegs, that runs to over 100 pages.

Unfortunately, because of their large scale, these graphs are difficult to read, and Westover makes no attempt to analyze an album's drastic fluctuation in chart position.
Additional charts and tables include a list of the Beatles's Grammy nominations and awards, an overview of the various U.S. record companies that released Beatles product, and even a chart that sorts all Beatles songs by playing times.
