Just picked up a discounted copy of "The Longest Cocktail Party." I
had had it, and read it, some 25 years ago, but eventually gave it to
someone else at a discount. Lately however, I was scratching my head
about material I thought I might have heard in DiLello's book, and it
drove me crazy enough to plop down.....$.01 to an Amazon Marketplace
seller for it.
My question is this. How accurate is this book? DiLello claims to
have been involved in Apple from 1968 through the collapse of the band
(he says "collapse of Apple", but given the many lawsuits between the
Beatles and Steve Jobs, it's clear Apple didn't collapse in Aug 1970.
Not that big a deal, that.)
What of his caricatures of the Beatles and those around them? What he
claims to have heard and seen?
