Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 16ú lá de mí Iúil, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1993 baineadh geit as na daoine a raibh ag obair d'aerlíne mar go raibh ísliú pá de 34 milliúin punt. I 1999 d'éalaigh dhá ghardaí ón clúb eitilt de bharr go raibh tuirlingt de thuairt an oíche roimhe agus thit an t-eitleán ar a ceann. I 1976 bhí earcaíocht ag dul ar aghaidh do phlanda comhréir a raibh na milliúin euro acu. I 1999 tháinig an nuacht amach gur shroich Aerfort na Sionainne milliúin paisinéirí an tseachtain roimhe. Sin Ricky Martin le Livin' La Vida Loca – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1999 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1969 agus iad ag taifead a albam Abbey Road, bhí The Beatles ag obair ar dhá amhráin George Harrison, Here Comes The Sun agus Something. Tháinig inspioráid chuig George Harrison chun scríobh Here Comes The Sun nuair a thóg sé lá as ag obair agus chaith sé an lá ag siúil timpeall gairdín ag tí Eric Clapton. I 2000 chuaigh Coldplay chuig uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain lena chéad albam darbh ainm Parachutes. Bhí amhráin ar an albam cosúil le Shiver, Yellow, Trouble agus Don't Panic agus bhuaigh siad Grammy don albam sin I 2002. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh Michael Flatley I Meiriceá I 1958 agus rugadh aisteoir Will Ferrell I Meiriceá ar an lá seo I 1967 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh amárach le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 16th of July, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1993: There was shock as air staff faced £34 million pay cuts. 1999: two members of the garda flying club had a miraculous escape last night after their aircraft crash landed and over turned. 1976: Recruitment started for a multi million syntex plant. 1999: shannon airports passenger figures topped the million mark last friday. That was Ricky Martin with Livin' La Vida Loca – the biggest song on this day in 1999 Onto music news on this day In 1969 During recordings for their Abbey Road album, The Beatles worked on two new George Harrison songs, 'Here Comes The Sun' and 'Something.' Harrison was inspired to write 'Here Comes The Sun' when taking a day off from Apple business and spending the day walking around the garden at Eric Clapton's house. 2000 Coldplay went to No.1 on the UK album chart with their debut release Parachutes. The release spawned the hit singles 'Shiver', 'Yellow', 'Trouble', and 'Don't Panic' and won the Grammy Award for Best Alternative Music Album in 2002. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – dancer Michael Flatley was born in America in 1958 and actor Will Ferrell was born in America on this day in 1967 and this is some of the stuff has done. I'll be back with you tomorrow with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

In this week's The Making of, we do a deep dive into The Beetles' iconic, influential and incredible Abbey RoadJoining Andrea today is Head tour guide at the Irish Rock ‘N' Roll Museum Experience Alan Buckley.Alan talks us through the road to Abbey Road and the ever-lasting impact this album has.Listen here.
By the time The Beatles released their twelfth and final studio album, Let It Be, the ban had already broken up. Their official break-up was in April 1970, and this album was released in May.Much of the recording dates back over a year, and a project that Paul McCartney developed in an attempt to save the band. The Beatles went into the studio in January 1969 to begin an album, document the development on film, and showcase the band as they return both to a simpler rock 'n' roll style and to live performance. They started in Twickenham Film Studios, but quickly began fighting. George Harrison left the group, only returning after they agreed to returning to Apple Studios and to bringing keyboardist Billy Preston in to assist in the process.Originally entitled "Get Back," the album was delayed multiple times as the group considered aligning with potential televised performances, and eventually postponing the release in favor of the studio album "Abbey Road." As the demise of the group became more clear, Engineer Glyn Johns and producer Phil Spector were brought in to turn the pieces from the "Get Back" sessions into a complete album.These sessions were also the ones which included the final Beatles live performance, the "Rooftop Concert" recorded from the roof of Apple Studios on the afternoon of January 30, 1969. This concert proceeded for 42 minutes until the police arrived and instructed the group to turn the sound down.Contemporary reviews of the album were more negative than previous Beatles albums, but those critiques have been revised upwards over time.Bruce presents this album marking the end of an era for this week's podcast.Two of UsPaul McCartney wrote most of this song which is credited to the Lennon-McCartney partnership. The original idea was inspired by McCartney's travel adventures with Linda Eastman (to whom he was married in March 1969), but it took on more meaning as a gesture of affection to John Lennon after the group broke up. I Me MineOne of the few non Lennon-McCartney songs on the album, this track was written by George Harrison. It was their last new track recorded before their official break-up in April 1970. The lyrics are a cry against the self-centeredness of mankind. The Beatles recorded it in January 1970, by which time Lennon has privately left the group, so the three remaining members recorded it. I've Got a FeelingThis song is actually a medley of two unfinished songs. Paul McCartney wrote "I've Got a Feeling," and John Lennon wrote "Everybody Had a Hard Year." and the two were put together. This was recorded during the Beatles' rooftop concert in January 1969 with Billy Preston on electric piano.Get BackThe concluding song from the album is unusual. because almost every moment of the song's development was recorded from the first riff to final mixing. The concluding quip from John Lennon regarding hope that "we passed the audition," was taken from the Rooftop Concert and worked in by Phil Spector. It was originally released as a single a year before in April 1969, and credited to "The Beatles with Billy Preston." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:"Burning Bridges" (Main theme from the action comedy film Kelly's Heroes)This World War II comedy stars Clint Eastwood and Telly Savalas revolves around a gold heist as the war draws to a close. STAFF PICKS:Question by The Moody BluesLynch brings us a song in multiple movements. The frantic phase represents the question of why we must go to war, while the more subdued section represents love and peace. Guitarist Justin Hayward wrote this song as a mashup of two unfinished songs which came together after observing the anxiety young US fans were experiencing regarding the draft and the Vietnam War.Proper Stranger by The Guess WhoRob features a deeper cut from the Canadian band off their "American Woman" album. The lyrics depict the feelings of being alone in a big city where "Nobody knows my face or knows my name. Nobody knows where I'm going or how I came. Lost and found, no one claimed me. Alone with a million others."50,000 Miles Beneath My Brain by by Ten Years AfterWayne takes us on another deep cut. This one is a psychedelic journey with the group that gets its name from their being founded ten years after Elvis's start. We noticed the similarity between this song and the Rolling Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil," with which it shares a similar chord progression.Baby Hold On by The Grass RootsBruce closes the staff picks with a group that was big from 1965-1985. The Grass Roots originated in 1965 as a project between the duo P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri. This song went to number 35 and was included on their compilation album, "More Golden Grass," released in the fall of 1970. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Genesis by Tangerine DreamWe close out this week's podcast with an early industrial track from the future jazz fusion giants.

In this episode, I bring you something that's been on my heart to recreate for years. Inspired by the spontaneous, powerful moments I used to have during the Clubhouse era, I've launched a new live format called "How May I Serve You Today? Ask Me Anything." The idea is simple: I open a Zoom room, stream it live on Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn, and invite people to jump in for real-time, unscripted conversations. Just like the Clubhouse rooms I used to host, my intention is to hold space for deep coaching, authentic dialogue, and transformational moments in full view of a live audience. This is what I love most about coaching: witnessing the miraculous in everyday moments. Now, I get to bring that to you in podcast form. This episode features four unique conversations, each with its own flavor and insight: Conversation 1 – Ramon: Distraction as Enlightenment | Time Stamp 00:11:30 Ramon Ray, motivational keynote speaker and event host asked how to stay focused when a flurry of possibilities tugs at his attention. Together we: Clarified his personal definition of distraction as “not being focused on a single task for a meaningful amount of time.” Explored how repeated distractions can signal mis-alignment, tasks that belong in someone else's zone of excellence, not his own zone of genius. Reframed procrastination as feedback rather than failure, helping Ramon see that some tasks may simply need to be delegated or dropped. Listen for: A practical mindset shift that turns every interruption into a cue for deeper self-inquiry and better task design. Conversation 2 – Curtis: Re-awakening the Power to Dream | Time Stamp 00:37:18 Long-time listener Curtis joined to envision life after retirement. He struggled at first, so I invited him to “play make-believe.” Once he let his imagination lead, an inspiring vision unfolded: Curtis is guiding a bus tour across Europe, Abbey Road photos in London, the Isle of Wight Festival, Disneyland Paris, Normandy beaches, and more. The exercise linked childhood memories of GI Joe adventures to present-day possibilities, proving his imaginative muscles are still strong. Listen for: A repeatable prompt you can use to help clients (or yourself) move past “I don't know” and paint a vivid future. Conversation 3 – DeLyn: Launching a Grief Podcast without Perfection Paralysis | Time Stamp 01:12:21 DeLyn, an educator and grief advocate, has several episodes recorded but hasn't published due to fear and tech concerns. Together we: Identified her top blockers—perfectionism, intro/outro music, editing, and a self-imposed August 30 National Grief Awareness Day deadline. Reframed “perfect” to mean “the best I can with what I have right now,” reducing her fear score from a nine to about a three. Offered simple launch logistics (Buzzsprout hosting, minimalist artwork, optional music) and reminded her that an unpolished but heartfelt episode serves more people than silence. Listen for: Practical tips for shipping creative work even when your inner critic demands studio-level production. Conversation 4 – Mark: Releasing a Lifelong Fear of Judgment | Time Stamp 01:47:04 Mark arrived carrying a visceral fear of sending invoices to clients, a pattern that traces back to ridicule on his first day of kindergarten. Our dialogue centered on: Using The Four Agreements, especially “Don't take anything personally” and “Don't make assumptions” as daily practice. Viewing critics and trolls as mirrors that reveal hidden internal triggers, turning them into unexpected allies. Recognizing the physical release of fear (a “lightness in the chest” and tears) as evidence that old stories are dissolving. Listen for: A real-time demonstration of how a single mindset tool can lift decades-old emotional weight.

In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas speaks with Charles Rosenay, a seasoned Beatles tour guide and cultural ambassador for Liverpool. They explore the evolution of Beatles tourism, the significance of iconic locations like the Cavern Club, and the hidden gems of Liverpool that fans should not miss. Charles shares memorable experiences from his tours, the emotional reactions of fans, and the changing relationship between Liverpool and its Beatles heritage. The conversation also touches on the impact of the internet on tourism, the joy of sharing Beatles history, and the best times to visit Liverpool for an immersive experience. Links www.LiverpoolTours.com The Book of Top 10 Beatles Lists (Amazon Link) www.BookOfTop10BeatlesLists.com Liverpool Tours on Facebook International Beatle Week Visit Liverpool Website Takeaways Charles Rosenay has been a Beatles tour guide since 1983. Liverpool has transformed into a vibrant cultural destination. The Cavern Club is a must-visit for Beatles fans. Emotional reactions from fans often include tears of joy. Beatles Week in August is the best time to visit Liverpool. Hidden gems like the Jacaranda are essential stops. The Beatles' childhood homes are significant historical sites. Balancing myth and history is crucial in storytelling. Liverpool's character is shaped by its people and culture. The internet has changed how Beatles tourism operates. Soundbites 1. The Origin Story "I fell in love with them like millions of other people of a certain age on February 9th, 1964 when they appeared on the Ed Sullivan show. Watched it, fell 100% in love with it, realized there was more to the world than just monster movies and kindergarten and baseball." 2. Liverpool as Sacred Ground "Liverpool was that holy land, the holy grail destination for me. When I was young, I would clip every article, everything that said John Paul, George Ringo. But I would also, if it said the tall ships are sailing into Liverpool, I would cut that out." 3. The Emotional Kiss "She got off the coach, set foot in Liverpool, bowed down and kissed the ground. I said, you guys planned that, huh? She goes, 'No, my gosh. That was so spontaneous. I didn't even think I was going to do that.'" 4. The Fifth Beatle Revelation "There was that debate, if you're a Beatles fan, the debate was who was the fifth Beatle? Was it Brian Epstein? Was it Billy Preston? Was it George Martin? The fifth Beatle was Liverpool. Liverpool is a personality, it's a lifestyle, it's humor." 5. Liverpool's Transformation "Back then it was just a dingy, scaffolded, gray like slum backyard area. I remember putting my ears against the walls and just trying to dream what it would be like hearing the Beatles play through these walls. Now it's completely embraced the entire tourism industry." 6. The Cavern Club Legacy "The Beatles played there over 300 times. It was literally their residency. Life was music and you wanted to be the band that played there. If you do one place that you want to capture the rock and roll and that era and the sweat and the music, it's the Cavern Club for sure." 7. 100% Satisfaction Guarantee "I am so proud, blessed, lucky, I don't know what the word is, 100% satisfaction from the people who go on the tour. Even the best five-star posh restaurant will have its off day. I forgot what your question was, but I think I went on a little tangent there." 8. The Magic of Spontaneity "Julian Lennon is doing a signing at a toy store in London in two hours. I said, you know what? We're changing our schedule. We can be in Liverpool two or three hours later. We're all going to this event. The 30 of us were in line for him. Eight other people came besides us." 9. Seeing Through Fresh Eyes "When they get excited, 'Can you take a picture of me crossing Abbey Road?' I know it. I had that feeling in 83 and 84, 85, and year after year. It's the joy of the people going and me loving it vicariously through their eyes and emotions." 10. Beatles Week Magic "During Beatle Week, you're literally walking street to street to street, hearing nonstop Beatle music. You just pour out Beatles music and that could be a plus or a minus if you're a Beatles fan—this is it, you're in heaven."

Ever wonder what it's like to be part of rock history? Our latest LaunchLeft episode pulls back the curtain on Big Star's legacy. Rain Phoenix hosts an illuminating conversation with Jody Stephens, drummer of the legendary band Big Star. The discussion delves into Jody's early musical influences in Memphis, his experiences with Big Star, and the band's enduring legacy. Jody shares insights about recording at Ardent Studios and working with John Fry, offering a glimpse into the creation of Big Star's iconic sound. Jody then launches Luther Russell. They discuss their collaboration in their band Those Pretty Wrongs, exploring their songwriting process and creative dynamic. Luther provides additional perspective on their partnership and his own musical journey. The episode also touches on Jody's recent induction into the Grammy Hall of Fame and Luther's latest solo album. Throughout, the conversation highlights the importance of maintaining a joyful, pressure-free approach to creativity in music. IN THIS EPISODE: (00:00) Introducing Jody Stevens of Big Star (05:21) Jody’s early musical influences in Memphis (09:06) Rain on discovering Big Star in Costa Rica (15:22) John Fry's influence on Big Star's iconic sound (24:17) Working at Ardent Studios after Big Star (31:49) Changes in the music industry over time (47:50) Luther Russell is launched (49:17) Collaborative songwriting process for the band (56:32) Recording at Abbey Road with John Leckie (59:52) Luther Russell's new solo album Happiness for Beginners (1:02:39) Upcoming shows and future recording plans KEY TAKEAWAYS: Music creation should be a joyful, pressure-free process. By focusing on having fun and avoiding self-imposed stress, artists can collaborate effectively long-distance and produce multiple albums together. This approach has allowed creativity to flow naturally. The music industry has changed dramatically, but there are still "gatekeepers" in new forms. While technology has democratized distribution, the sheer volume of content makes it challenging to break through. Having a passionate fanbase who will share your music remains crucial. Revisiting and performing older material can lead to unexpected new creative partnerships. What started as playing some shows together to support a documentary evolved into a fruitful songwriting collaboration and multiple albums. Being open to these opportunities can take your career in exciting new directions.

RATE BUSH! What are your most favorite and least-loved songs on Kate Bush's Hounds of Love? Three months before strange things catapulted Miss Bush into a new generation's consciousness, Sam had us sit down to dissect an album that most purists wouldn't dare break into separate parts. While Adam went overboard (groan) researching the second side's epic Ninth Wave song story, newbies Dan and Jim obliviously took it in like men with children in their eyes...or something. Guest rankers include keyboard guru and Abbey Road expert Brian Kehew (Moog Cookbook, The Who, Prince and more) and San Diego Music Award winner Marie Haddad from the world's greatest coverband, Baby Bushka. Hear it at WeWillRankYouPod.com, Apple, Spotify and your running shoe outlet. ***This episode was recorded in February of 2022, a few months before Stranger Things made Kate Bush a hero to a whole new generation and eight months before we finally edited and released it. Three years later, we received notice that we had to remove music from a dozen episodes of ours. Because we're a music podcast, we're allowed to play clips under music criticism laws so they let us keep the episodes intact. We recently noticed that this episode had disappeared though. Can't get a straight answer about why this one wasn't spared so we're re-uploading it without Kate's music. If you want to hear it in all of its original unedited glory, drop us a note on social media and we'll send it to you. We're not making a dime on this, unless you Venmo us (ahem) at WeWillRankYouPod. In fact, we buy every single song you hear on the show. We love you, Kate. It's still a fun listen without the tunes.

Listeners of The Wolf know that despite the fact that The Wolf lived mere yards (or meters) from Abbey Road, he and Action Jackson aren't huge Beatles fans. While he did go through a Beatles stage in high school, it was really an education on how the band evolved and created some amazing music which is still enjoyed and studied today. However, thanks to a run of 60s rock related movies that ran on Cinemax one night in the 80s, The Wolf became very familiar with Help! as he recorded the movie on VHS and watched it over and over. It was in technicolor, unlike A Hard Day's Night, and showed the boys having fun in exotic locales like Switzerland, The Bahamas, Stonehenge and Buckingham Palace. The seven tunes on the album that were included in the movie all hold up well and are fun to sing along with while you're watching. But the album is the first step moving from being bubble gum pop stars into more respected recording artists. We review the UK version of the album as the US version is shorter with orchestrated score tunes from the movie. The whole first side of the UK album features beloved songs from the movie like the title track, Ticket To Ride, You've Got To Hide Your Love Away and The Night Before. But the second side also features some Beatles classics like Ringo singing Act Naturally, I've Just Seen A Face and the all-time classic Yesterday. It's amazing that the boys were all so young (21-24) and were maturing before our eyes as they were now able to write more robust tunes with more mature themes. Bob Dylan had introduced them to marijuana by now and they'd done their first LSD trips which would show up more on an album from later in 1965, Rubber Soul (and after). But this one has one foot in the old, teenage dream Beatles phase and one in the more mature and experimental Beatles. We can't believe it's turning 60 but we went track x track to celebrate.

In late May 1969, producer Glyn Johns turned in a draft album, culled from hours of tape recorded in January 1969 during the Get Back/Let It Be sessions. His work reflected the original concept: catching The Beatles as they really were in the studio, with off-the-cuff performances of oldies, warm-ups, false starts and blown takes. It would have made for a fine tie-in with the original cut of the Let It Be film, but ultimately, the group rejected the idea, instead moving back to their established productions values, with Abbey Road being the result. The tapes, handed off to Phil Spector, emerged in May 1970 with a new tie-in: the group's break-up. Let It Be, the album, drew the worst reviews of their career, being a neither fish-nor-fowl collection of tunes bearing Spector's worst impulses (choirs and lush orchestration) alongside vestiges of the original concept (studio chat and tossed off improvisations). In this episode, Robert and Olympiad partner Gary Wenstrup re-imagine the group's history – what if Get Back HAD been accepted and released in spring 1969, the missing link between the “White Album” and Abbey Road? You can read Glyn's account of things here and hear the actual work here. The artwork is here and the track listing here.
Vanessa Kramer is a daughter, a wife, a mother, an author, and one heck of a fun, funny, and sharp conversationalist. She's also my guest for Episode No. 171, which gives me great honor to say.Vanessa and her husband, Kyle, stopped by for what turned out to be a delightful chat a couple of weeks ago, and we rolled through the morning and into the afternoon, talking family, upbringing, marriage, partnership, parenthood, publishing, and so much more. We also managed to devote a little bit of time to a few of Vanessa's favorite albums, which were these:Abbey Road (1969), The BeatlesFleetwood Mac's Rumors (1977)The Black Parade (2006), My Chemical RomanceOf Monsters and Men's My Head Is an Animal (2011)folklore (2020), Taylor SwiftOf Vanessa's many wonderful attributes is the fact that she has managed to publish four books in the last three years! Those are these:Great Divide (2023)Great Desolation (2024)My Mother's Spirit (2024)Temporarily, Forever (2025)All four titles can be found on Amazon and elsewhere. Learn more about my guest at vanessakramerauthor.com and please consider following her at @vanessakramerauthor on Threads, TikTok, Instagram, and/or Facebook.Also part of Vanessa's bag is her admirable role in the seriously cool publication, KC Book Beat, a nonprofit that celebrates and promotes the Kansas City (and surrounding) literary community.

Oscar and Grammy-winning songwriter and composer Finneas O'Connell breaks down his journey into film composing and working with Oscar winning director Alfonso Cuarón on the hit miniseries DISCLAIMER. Finneas dives into his work with Billie Eilish and how it led to meeting Cuarón, the frightening first steps and self doubt of getting started (VENGEANCE and THE FALLOUT), and how his album FOR CRYIN' OUT LOUD came together so fast with a “jam session” model of musical collaborators. Plus, the backstory of submitting a 007 James Bond theme song for NO TIME TO DIE, and how he eventually found out that he and Billie Eilish got the gig and began working with Hans Zimmer. And why he is eager to collaborate with Rihanna and the band Cake.Plus, Finneas' most memorable experience performing on tour with Billie Eilish (post-hurricane in Mexico City without any access to power), and how Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross' THE SOCIAL NETWORK opened his eyes to what scoring could be.Interview by Kenny Holmes and Matt Schrader.

Welcome Back 2Legs Fam! It's been nearly 20 years since Paul's latter day 21st Century Masterpiece Chaos and Creation In The Backyard. Where did that time go? To accompany and promote the record Paul held an intimate gathering of fans and friends at Abbey Road, recorded in Studio 2 to demonstrate some of the creative processes that he and The Beatles used to employ there and have a bit of fun along the way. Filmed on 28 July 2005 and originally broadcast on BBC2 17 December 2005 and PBS in the USA 27th February 2006 and directed by Simon Hilton "Chaos And Creation At Abbey Road" provides such an intimate glimpse of Macca at work playing familiar tunes in a whole new arrangement ('Band On The Run', 'Lady Madonna', 'I've Got A Feeling') among several from the forthcoming album which dropped in September of that year. Did you watch this upon initial release? or when it was bundled in the CD set? Let us know in the comments below! We love deep dives back into stuff like this! We hope you do too! Peace Andy and Tom
Garry discusses his reaction to watching a young woman react to hearing The Beatles medley from Abbey Road for the first time.
I may've mentioned this before, but -- more often than not -- when I open the front door to greet a guest, it's our first time meeting one another. And the vibes in that initial moment vary. Sometimes they're neutral. Occasionally they're curious. Every now and again, the good energy is palpable, and such was the case when I met John Knell on my porch.John is a local artist, a son, a husband, a father, a fantastic conversationalist, and he joined me for Episode No. 169.We chewed the fat for a good little bit a couple of weeks ago, covering family, memories, John's mixed-media art approach to pop culture and sports, and of course, a few of his favorite albums, which were these:Abbey Road (1969), The BeatlesVan Halen's Fair Warning (1981)Achtung Baby (1991), U2Many thanks to John for the time and the solid chat. Please consider checking out his work at johnknell.com, and follow him on Instagram at @johnny_kc.And many thanks to those of you that support the podcast.Cheers.Note: I was mistaken in claiming that the U2 song, "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" was the feedback/sustain king. What I meant was, "With or Without You."copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the audio samples contained within this episode. They are clips I poached from a Kurt Vile tune called, "Lost my Head there" from his fantastic 2015 release, B'lieve I'm Goin' Down, c/o Matador Records.
More from the Gab Four. Jon, Lonnie, Martin and I continue our thoughts on Beatles 1969 - Abbey Road and ??? What else might the sessions of January 1969 become? Each of us assembled significantly different album(s) from the multitudes of songs rehearsed, jammed or half-remembered by the Beatles (and captured for us on the nagras). Tune in and see who you agree with, or who you don't! A cameo from the Queen of all Beatles Media herself (defending her title) as some of us discuss the Beatles news!
This week on 2Legs (amidst the brand new touring rumours, and Babs dropping her duet on 'My Valentine' with Macca) we are pleased to revisit the Interview Series - where we dissect a rare and not often seen interview with Paul. On this episode we chose the 1977 Interview from an Australian TV program titled "Count Down." This recently surfaced on YouTube and to see the late 70s Wings trio ensconced in the privacy of #2 Studio at Abbey Road is pretty cool to witness. They appear bored at times (Denny especially) but Paul and Linda give some good sound bites here about what's to come. This was mainly used as a promotional tool for the then current single 'Mull of Kintyre.' The gentlemen interviewing Wings is Molly Meldrum. Orignally broadcasted on 24th December 1977. And we like Paul music post-1981, sorry not sorry! Peace Andy & Tom

Australian pop, rock and indie singer-songwriter Majelen reflects on her musical journey, and delves into the inspiration behind her debut album, Stuck With You, which was recorded at Abbey Road studios.
Gab Four together again. Jon Stone, Lonnie Pena, Martin Quibell and myself sit down to consider alternate albums that might've come out of the January 1969 sessions. Beware, the ripples through time extend well beyond a single record. What happens to the film? Abbey Road? Do all roads lead to "For You Blue?" George Martin, Glyn Johns and others guest. More next week!
This is a long one! 83 minutes. This is the second podcast in which we answer questions from a our “ask us anything” post. We recorded this one before our most recent podcast — kind of like Abbey Road and Let it Be — so we were still graced by Vinay's presence. In fact, we recorded it in his studio. We still have about a half dozen questions to answer; we will cover those on an upcoming podcast. Enjoy. This is a public episode.

Send us a textThis Easter, Jackalope Tales unseals the crypt of rock 'n' roll resurrection with an episode steeped in scandal, smoke, and sizzling fajitas. Charles and Lisa dig deep into the enduring myths that Jim Morrison faked his death to escape the fame machine—and ended up flipping burgers as a line cook at a Chili's in Austin. Meanwhile, they explore the infamous “Paul Is Dead” conspiracy, complete with backward messages, barefoot Abbey Road strolls, and the quiet horror of being replaced by a bass-playing doppelgänger. From blurry photos outside karaoke bars to whispery EVP recordings of Morrison mumbling “baby back ribs,” this is an unholy mashup of Beatlemania, Lizard King lore, and deep-fried delusion. Resurrection never tasted so weird.Support the showBecome a J-Lope and follow us on social media.
