The Journal of Beatles Studies<https://www.liverpooluniversitypress.co.uk/journals/id/113/> (JBS), is a brand-new fully open access journal published by Liverpool University Press in association with the University of Liverpool<https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/arts/> and MA The Beatles, Music Industry and Heritage<https://www.liverpool.ac.uk/study/postgraduate-taught/taught/beatles-ma/overview/>.
Co-edited by Dr Holly Tessler (University of Liverpool) and Paul Long (Monash University), the journal provides a voice to new and emerging research locating the Beatles in new contexts, groups and communities from within and beyond academic institutions.
The theme of this premier issue is 'Navigating and Narrating the Beatles: Establishing a Research Agenda for the 21st Century'.
Contributions explore how, why and through what means the Beatles are both subject and object of critical study.
Articles seek to understand Beatles scholarship as a means through which we can begin to answer the question of why the Beatles have remained a cultural constant, the focus of continuous evaluation and re-evaluation for more than half a century.

"What both 'Get Back' and Paul's headlining gig evidence is that even more than 50 years after their breakup, the Beatles remain a musical and cultural phenomenon. Perhaps somewhat counterintuitively, cultural and scholarly fascination with the Beatles has not diminished but flourished over time".
- Co-Editors Holly Tessler and Paul Long
"Paul McCartney may have once said "The Beatles were always a great little band. Nothing more nothing less," but that isn't the full story. Built on once-in-a-century talent, and sitting at the epicentre of cultural change, The Beatles' influence and importance continues to inspire serious study".
