From Beatles Monthly Book N°124, August 1986:
Paul McCartney’s “No More Lonely Nights” received an award from ASCAP, the U.S. music publishing agency, for being the most performed song of the year from October 1, 1984 to September 30, 1985. Fellow superb songwriter Hal David, formerly president of ASCAP, accepted the award on Paul’s behalf at a celebration dinner held in Los Angeles on May 28.

The Beatles Diary Volume 2: After The Break-Up 1970-2001
"An updated edition of the best-seller. The story of what happened to the band members, their families and friends after the 1970 break-up is brought right up to date. A fascinating and meticulous piece of Beatles scholarship."
We owe a lot to Keith Badman for the creation of those pages, but you really have to buy this book to get all the details - a day to day chronology of what happened to the four Beatles after the break-up and how their stories intertwined together!
The Beatles - The Dream is Over: Off The Record 2
This edition of the book compiles more outrageous opinions and unrehearsed interviews from the former Beatles and the people who surrounded them. Keith Badman unearths a treasury of Beatles sound bites and points-of-view, taken from the post break up years. Includes insights from Yoko Ono, Linda McCartney, Barbara Bach and many more.
