He defined and extended what it was to be a PR at the same time as he retained a cool, journalistic eye. In the end, he preserved what was best about the high Sixties for future generations. Taylor had remained close to George Harrison, who contributed addenda to 1984's Fifty Years Adrift, a limited-edition book that expanded the Sixties' coverage of As Time Goes By" (Savage). Jon Savage, "The fifth Beatle, Derek Taylor", GQ. Quarto. Original half calf, red morocco spine label, spine lettered and ruled in gilt, compartments stamped in blind, sides and corners trimmed with single gilt fillet, brown cloth sides, vignette on front cover in red and gilt, rear cover with Derek Taylor's signature stamped in gilt, illustrated endpapers from a design by Larry Smith, edges gilt, original red silk ribbon and colour concert ticket bookmark.
