"Ratatouille" won the wide-release honor, which says something.

That honor goes to a book, published in the late 70s, called "Paperback Writer" by Mark Shipper. It's out of print now, but available used from Amazon. It's like an alternate-universe history of the band, including a comeback in which they can come up with nothing better to sing than "Lend Me Your Comb."

A nice balance of funny and sentimental.
