Monmouth University Professor and Beatles author Kenneth Womack returns to 'Beatles Revolution' to talk about his new book 'Living the Beatles' Legend: The Untold Story of Mal Evans.'Kenneth's new book is a warts-and-all biography of a mainstay of the Beatles' inner circle, a longtime roadie, assistant and devoted friend to the Fab Four, who served and protected the band through its most extraordinary times.
