“Pleasantly surprising in its detail, ‘Strange Fruit — The Beatles’ Apple Records’ should satisfy the die hard fans of the Beatles, as well as more casual music enthusiasts looking for balanced, informed account of the last throes of the band and their risky, curious venture of running a label.”
-Kevin Jagernauth, INDIEWIRE
“This is an excellent overview of an often overlooked aspect of the Fab Four’s legacy. Easily earning a Highly Recommended rating, it’s perfect for the purist and novice alike. Today, many artists have their own boutique label. Sadly, few seemed to have learn the lessons taught to them by the biggest band in the history of music – and their own egoinfused folly.”
-Bill Gibron, DVD TALK
“An excellent documentary film which has been well researched and edited. With experts like Apple biographer Stefan Granados, it presents a great insight into Apple Records and will be a fab addition to any fan’s library.”
-David Bedford, BRITISH BEATLES FAN CLUB
