2016 hat Udo Lindenberg sein Album "Stärker als die Zeit" veröffentlicht. In dieser Folge feiern wir also gleich doppelt: Das Album wird 10 und Udo feiert seinen 80. Geburtstag. Udo Lindenberg ist wirklich eine Ikone und eine Konstante der deutschen Musiklandschaft. Mit "Stärker als die Zeit" hat er 2016 sein 36. und bisher letztes Studioalbum veröffentlicht. Musiker Peter Freudenthaler von der Band Fools Garden gehört zum erweiterten musikalischen Kreis von Udo Lindenbergs Panik-Orchester, und er ist (und war schon immer) großer Fan von ihm. Einer der bekanntesten Songs des Albums – und der letzte Song der Platte – ist der Titelsong "Stärker als die Zeit". Aufgenommen wurde der Song in einem der legendärsten Tonstudios der Welt: den Londoner Abbey Road Studios. In denen haben auch schon die Beatles einige Zeit verbracht. Als Erklärung, warum ein Udo Lindenberg als deutscher Künstler in die Abbey Road Studios nach London geht, vermutet Musikredakteurin Ilka Siebert, dass man dort "etwas Episches machen kann". Wenn man sich die Schwere und die Breite im Sound von "Stärker als die Zeit" anhört, dann klingt das, als wäre der Plan von Udo Lindenberg für diesen Song aufgegangen. Während viele Künstler im Alter eher bei dem bleiben, was sie kennen, und wenig Neues ausprobieren, ist Udo Lindenberg hier der positive Gegenentwurf. Er entwickelt sich immer noch weiter, macht Dinge zusammen mit jüngeren Künstlern, auch aus anderen musikalischen Sphären, und hält einfach gerne Kontakt – Udo steht nicht still. Als positiven Beleg dafür kann man zum Beispiel seine Zusammenarbeit mit dem Rapper Apache 207 sehen, mit dem er vor einiger Zeit den Song "Komet" aufgenommen hat. Pop-Ppianist und Songwriter Vince Bahrdt kennen wir als Kopf hinter der Band Orange Blue, die Anfang der 2000er mit "She's Got That Light" einen großen Hit in der deutschen Radiolandschaft hatten. Vince ist aber auch Songwriter und hat mit Udo Lindenberg selbst schon mehrfach zusammengearbeitet – und das immer gerne: "Udo nimmt sich nicht zu ernst und nicht zu wichtig. Er ist ein ganz angenehmer, netter Mann – davon hätte ich gerne mehr in der deutschen Musiklandschaft." __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Stärker als die Zeit" sprechen wir im Podcast (20:15) – "Stärker als die Zeit"(29:29) – "Durch die schweren Zeiten"(37:56) – "Muss da durch"(49:34) – "Mein Body und ich"(53:16) – "Der einsamste Moment"(01:01:12) – "Eldorado"__________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "Stärker als die Zeit" findet ihr hier: https://x.swr.de/s/udolindenbergstrkeralsdiezeit __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

„Nightingale Lane“ wurde am 27. März 2026 auf Rayes zweitem Studio-Album „This Music May Contain Hope“ veröffentlicht. Im Text der Ballade geht es um eine sehr persönliche Erinnerung an eine frühere Liebe – hier im Londoner Stadtteil Tooting, wo sich die Nightingale Lane befindet, ist Raye aufgewachsen und hier hat sie offensichtlich auch ihre große Liebe verloren. Die Sängerin hat den Song gemeinsam mit Tom Richards und Chris Hill geschrieben. Teile davon wurden mit Orchester im Abbey Road Studio aufgenommen und von Tom Richards dirigiert. Raye hat bereits zahlreiche Auszeichnungen erhalten und ist für ihre herausragende Stimme und die Mischung aus Soul, R&B, Jazz und Pop bekannt. Sie begann schon früh Songs zu schreiben und zu performen. Mit 14 Jahren besuchte sie für zwei Jahre die BRIT School – eine weiterführende Schule für Darstellende Künste und Technologie in Selhurst in London, an der auch Adele und Amy Winehouse unterrichtet wurden. Parallel arbeitete sie zudem in Songwriting-Sessions mit anderen Künstlerinnen und Künstlern.

Welcome to Off The Beat and Track!In this special episode, host Stu Whiffen sits down with LA-based musician Lola Bates—an exciting emerging artist making waves with her distinctive sound and bold creative identity.Raised in the iconic Laurel Canyon music scene, Lola Bates draws influence from legendary artists such as Joni Mitchell, Kate Bush, Tori Amos, and PJ Harvey. A classically trained pianist and accomplished multi-instrumentalist, she blends pop, rock, and folk with intricate vocal harmonies and cinematic production.Despite being just 24, Bates has already built an impressive résumé. She toured alongside Jerry Cantrell—best known from Alice in Chains—and later joined his band for a global tour supporting his solo work. She has also performed with emerging act Sunday (1994), further expanding her presence on the international stage.Her musical career began early, contributing piano work to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 at just 12 years old, before recording with the London Symphony Orchestra at Abbey Road Studios for the sequel. Her vocals have since featured across film, television, and major releases—including John Wick: Chapter 4 and Primal.Blending elements of indie, alternative, and leftfield pop, Lola is carving out her own lane with music that feels both modern and deeply personal. Writing and creating from Los Angeles, she brings a fresh perspective shaped by her surroundings, influences, and fearless approach to artistry.

In this episode of My Music, Graham Coath sits down with London-born singer-songwriter Col Gerrard for a conversation that moves well beyond the usual music interview.Col's approach to music is grounded in something increasingly rare—classic songwriting, emotional honesty, and a deep respect for real musicianship. Influenced by soul, classic pop and timeless artists, his work reflects a life shaped by movement, experience, and reflection. The discussion weaves through the making of his self-titled debut album—an introspective twelve-track record that explores the complexity of relationships, miscommunication, longing, and the quiet weight that love can leave behind. As Col shares, these songs were written in hindsight—an attempt to make sense of moments that didn't fully land at the time.Recorded across iconic London studios including Abbey Road Studios, Metropolis Studios and Kore, the album was produced by Grammy-nominated Chris Potter (known for work with The Rolling Stones, U2 and The Verve). Together, they've created a piano-led, emotionally charged sound—blending soulful vocals, organic instrumentation, driving guitars and a subtle sense of nostalgia that feels both cinematic and accessible.Alongside the album, Graham and Col explore:Why true musicianship still matters in a world of AI and samplingThe irreplaceable energy of live performance and imperfectionThe tension between technology and human expressionHow songwriting often reveals meaning long after the moment has passedThere's also a strong thread throughout the episode about creative identity—why artists shouldn't feel boxed in, and how the best music often comes from allowing space for instinct, experimentation and even the unexpected.Having recently toured with Boyzlife and building momentum following radio support and a sold-out Camden headline show, Col Gerrard is carving out a space that feels both grounded and quietly confident.At its core, this episode is about rediscovering the human side of music—where feeling, craft and lived experience still lead the way.

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with singer-songwriter Grace Humphries, and we talk about what it feels like to be at the very beginning of an artist's journey—while already carrying real life, real grief, and a clear sense of purpose into the music.Grace shares what it's been like arriving at Belmont University as a spring admit, stepping into music school life for the first time and suddenly being surrounded by people who truly understand the creative path she's on. For the first time, she's in an environment where songwriting, performing, and artistic ambition feel normal—and that shift has been energizing.We also trace her musical origin story. Grace has been singing since childhood, gradually teaching herself piano and guitar while learning how to shape songs with intention. Along the way, we talk honestly about the profound impact of losing her brother Liam, and how that experience reshaped her worldview, her faith, and ultimately the emotional center of her songwriting.There have also been some remarkable moments along the way. At just 16 years old, Grace recorded at Abbey Road Studios, an experience that helped solidify her commitment to pursuing music seriously. Since then, she's spent time searching for the right creative collaborators and has now begun recording new material at Soundstage Studios in Nashville alongside top-tier session musicians.We also talk about the craft of songwriting itself—learning to balance authenticity with the realities of the modern music industry. Grace reflects on how her faith influences her work without forcing it into a single genre category, and why she's focused on staying grounded in the music even as the industry continues to evolve. By the end of our conversation, it's clear she's an artist with both talent and a strong sense of identity about the path she wants to follow.Key TakeawaysWhat it's like entering Belmont University as a spring admit and finding a creative community.Grace Humphries's early musical beginnings—teaching herself piano and guitar while learning to write songs.How the loss of her brother Liam shaped her perspective, faith, and songwriting voice.The surreal experience of recording at Abbey Road Studios at age 16.Finding the right producer and beginning new recordings at Soundstage Studios in Nashville.How Grace balances authentic songwriting with commercial awareness.Why she remains focused on the work despite the rapidly shifting music industry.Music from the EpisodeWhy'd You Give Up — Grace HumphriesFor Years — Grace HumphriesAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a long-form conversation podcast where host Brad Williams sits down with some of the most thoughtful musicians, composers, and artists working today.

In this episode, I sit down with percussionist Colin Currie for a wide-ranging conversation about curiosity, originality, live performance, and the lifelong pursuit of musical meaning. Colin is one of the most influential percussionists of our time, known for his deep commitment to contemporary music, his close collaboration with composers, and his transformative interpretations of Steve Reich's work. This conversation explores how curiosity, patience, and listening have shaped his career and his approach to music-making.We begin by talking about technology, access to recordings, and the changing landscape of music education. Colin reflects on growing up in a time when discovering music required effort, intention, and physical presence in libraries and record shops. He shares concerns about students learning pieces by copying online performances rather than developing their own ideas, and he speaks passionately about the importance of solitude, curiosity, and learning music on one's own terms.Colin traces his musical beginnings back to early childhood, from piano lessons at age five to his first drum lesson at six, describing the joy, excitement, and physical energy that initially drew him to percussion. He talks about how that sense of wonder has never left him and why live performance remains a magical, irreplaceable experience. We explore why percussion continues to evolve so rapidly, how technique has advanced across the field, and why musical intent always matters more than virtuosity alone.A significant portion of the conversation focuses on Colin's connection to contemporary music and the composers who shaped his artistic identity. He describes hearing The Rite of Spring as a teenager, discovering post-war modernist composers through library scores, and developing an instinctive attraction to music that felt strange, challenging, and unfamiliar. Colin shares how his love for new music was never about understanding it intellectually, but about responding to it emotionally and instinctively.We also dive deeply into Colin's relationship with Steve Reich, including their first meeting, their long-standing collaboration, and the formation of the Colin Currie Group. Colin reflects on recording Music for 18 Musicians at Abbey Road Studios, explaining how the goal was to capture the intensity and emotional risk of live performance rather than create a polished studio artifact. He talks about groove, sonority, emotional depth, and why Reich's music demands both precision and expressive freedom.Colin discusses his growing role as a conductor and how stepping onto the podium has changed the way he listens, leads, and collaborates with ensembles. He shares stories from recent performances, lessons learned from orchestral musicians, and how listening remains the central skill, whether playing or conducting. We also talk about his record label, Colin Currie Records, crowdfunding new projects, and the upcoming release of a Steve Reich album featuring Sextet, Double Sextet, Six Marimbas, and Dance Patterns.As we look ahead, Colin reflects on 2026 as a landmark year, including Steve Reich's 90th birthday, dozens of performances of Reich's music worldwide, and the premiere of Colin's 40th percussion concerto. This is a thoughtful, inspiring conversation about curiosity, commitment, and the lifelong responsibility of serving music.Music from the Episode:Mallet Quartet (Steve Reich - Colin Currie Group)Music for 18 Musicians - Section VI (Steve Reich - Colin Currie Group)Thank you for listening.

¡The Beatles, tamales divergentes y la cumbia como una comunión entre caderas! En este episodio me acompaña Ian Taylor Muñoz, inglés-mexicano, que trabaja en un lugar mítico: Abbey Road Studios. Además de platicarnos sobre su labor como ingeniero técnico en su primera (y única chamba), también nos cuenta como la cumbia cambió su vida. Durante el día se encarga de que los botones del estudio botonién y los faders faderien, y en las noches lidera la banda de cumbia visionaria, La Chinaca. Platicamos sobre lo que le falta a la escena musical de Londres, por qué extraña los tamales de costilla de la CDMX y cómo fue que en un sound systems masivo le hicieron sentir que se quedaba sin aire. Ian nos explica la ciencia detrás de las bocinas de diamante, lo que sucede cuando visita el estudio Sir Paul McCartney y por qué la cumbia es, en esencia, una comunión que sucede a través de la cadera.

Parents of under-fives in England are to be offered official advice on how long their children should spend watching TV or looking at computer screens. It comes as government research shows about 98% of children under two were watching screens on a daily basis - with parents, teachers and nursery staff saying youngsters were finding it harder to hold conversations or concentrate on learning. To discuss this further Nuala McGovern is joined by Kate Silverton, child counsellor and parenting author, and Professor Sonia Livingstone from the London School of Economics and author of Parenting for a Digital Future. In 2025 alone she walked at Paris Fashion Week, spoke at the United Nations about face equality and won 'Fashion and beauty influencer of the year' at the the UK and Ireland TikTok awards, all while managing a chronic illness. Nikki Lilly is a Bafta and Emmy award-winner, an influencer and a campaigner and she joined Anita Rani in the studio.The latest series of The Traitors has sparked controversy after two black women, Netty and Judy, were the first to leave – one ‘murdered' by the Traitors and the other banished at the roundtable. The debate goes beyond the game - is it exposing unconscious bias and raising bigger questions? Do reality TV shows like this hold up a mirror to society, revealing uncomfortable truths around racism, misogyny, and ageism? Author and arts columnist at the Independent Micha Frazer-Carroll and freelance writer Chloe Laws, who have both written on this topic and are both fans of the show, discuss.What happens if the person you're in a relationship with doesn't quite meet all the qualities you look for in a long-term partner? Do you stay anyway? Journalist Eve Simmons has recently written about this in her new book, ‘What She Did Next', which looks at why millennial women might settle for what she calls ‘subpar' relationships. Nuala was also joined by psychotherapist and broadcaster Lucy Beresford who believes it may not just be women settling for less.Miss Marple and Poirot have been household names for decades but now one of Agatha Christie's lesser-known sleuths – Lady Eileen ‘Bundle' Brent - is finally getting her time in the spotlight. The fearless young amateur detective is the focus of new Netflix mystery series Seven Dials. Mia McKenna-Bruce is the award-winning actor bringing ‘Bundle' to the screen, alongside Helena Bonham-Carter and Martin Freeman, and Mia joined presenter Nuala live in the studio.The Ayoub Sisters are Scottish Egyptian siblings Sarah and Laura Ayoub who play cello and violin. Their debut album was recorded in Abbey Road Studios with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. Their second album, Arabesque, was released independently and went to number one in the iTunes chart. They are about to undertake a UK tour to celebrate their 10th anniversary, which will include the premiere of their Arabic Symphony in a homecoming concert in Glasgow.Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Annette Wells

Heather Rose's latest novel, A Great Act of Love, is set around a real-life vineyard in Tasmania in the early 19th century. This was at a time when Tasmania, or Van Diemen's Land as it was called then, was still a British penal colony. It was while she was researching this book that Heather discovered her own family's dark history and its connection to the land, which she has interwoven into the story. This year marks the centenary of the Adoption of Children Act 1926. It was the first legislation enabling the legal adoption of children in England and Wales, with equivalent legislation passed in Northern Ireland in 1929 and in Scotland in 1930. Joining Nuala to discuss the significance of the passing of this act is Dame Carol Homden, Chief Executive of Coram, Harriet Ward, Emeritus Professor at Loughborough University and currently writing a book about the history of adoption, and Zoe Lambert, who was adopted at five months old and is the founder of In-Between Lines, that works with adoptees, adoption agencies and advocacy groups.

Robb Kelly, PhD – The Recovery Expert – was born in Manchester, England. He grew up in a family of musicians and developed a deep love for music at an early age. He was performing on stage by the age of nine. During his early twenties, he worked at the prestigious Abbey Road Studios as a session musician in London.Addiction was always close to his heart, as Dr. Kelly was born into a family with a history of alcoholism. He began drinking and using drugs at a young age, but he managed to stay on a path of success, moving to Oxford in the early 1980s to pursue a PhD in Psychology at the esteemed University of Oxford. He continued to drink heavily during his time in Oxford—yet still managed to complete his doctoral studies, earning a PhD in psychology in 1984.Even though he was a heavy drinker, no one would have predicted that he would end up living on the streets of Manchester, homeless and alone. He recalls a night when he had a staggering realization about his own alcoholism. It would later inspire two of his most popular catchphrases: “The Problem is not our Drinking, it is our Thinking” and “Step out of the Disease, and into the Solution.”Dr. Kelly was standing on a street corner one night in Manchester, body trembling from alcohol withdrawal. He stood in front of a liquor store, shaking and desperately waiting for it to open. He knew that as soon as he took that first sip of alcohol, he would feel relief.As soon as the store opened, he rushed inside. The clerk grabbed a bottle of vodka from the shelf and placed it in a brown paper bag before him. As he lifted the bag, his trembling stopped. His body ceased shaking, and his mind found peace. He hadn't even taken the first sip; it was just the promise of alcohol that stopped his shaking and eased his restlessness.Dr Robb Kelly Official Website: https://robbkelly.com/Unlocking Humanity with Ancient Knowledge | Host John Edmonds Kozma Hosted on Acast.

The rock and roll legend, Billy J. Kramer, grew up in Bootle, a Liverpool suburb.  Upon leaving school, he became a trainee engineer by day and aspiring singer by night, performing under the stage name Billy Kramer. Billy's performances at local rock clubs around Liverpool soon brought him to the attention of the one and only John Lennon.  John urged Brian Epstein to sign Billy to an exclusive management contract.  Billy jumped at the opportunity to become a full-time entertainer.  Soon after, Billy was summoned to Brian's office to find John there waiting for him with the suggestion that he add the “J” to his name to give it a “rock and roll edge”.  From that day forward, Billy has been known as Billy J. Kramer.In March of 1963, Billy was the first person to have a hit record with a Lennon-McCartney song, “Do You Want To Know A Secret,” which was written specially for him by John and Paul and produced by George Martin at Abbey Road Studios even before The Beatles recorded it.Billy toured extensively throughout the UK as the opening act for The Beatles both before and during Beatlemania.  Billy also headlined tours with such greats as Del Shannon, Gene Pitney, and The Everly Brothers.Billy's recordings of the Lennon-McCartney compositions, “Bad To Me” along with “I'll Keep You Satisfied”, “From A Window”, and “I Call Your Name” all became international million sellers.  He also had a smash hit with the Mort Shuman/John Leslie McFarland song, Little Children.  Released as a double sided single, Bad To Me and Little Children have the unique distinction of being the highest entry into the Billboard charts at #8.  That accomplishment has never been equalled.Billy's appearances on the Ed Sullivan show, Shindig, and Hullaballoo secured his place in rock ‘n roll history.  In 1964, Billy performed as part of the legendary T.A.M.I. show along with such artists as James Brown, Chuck Berry, The Beach Boys, Marvin Gaye, The Supremes , Smokey Robinson, The Rolling Stones and many others.To commemorate his 50th anniversary in the music business, Billy recorded and released new material entitled “I Won The Fight”.  Billy recently released his autobiography, “Do You Want To Know A Secret.”Billy continues to record, perform and promote his Storytellers show to international audiences.Please stick around at the end of the show for a really fantastic treat.  Billy has lent us his brand new Christmas song, “Christmas Kinda Feeling…”

The Ripples nació en 2022. Tras pasar por diferentes lugares del mundo durante unos años, dos de los fundadores del grupo se volvieron a reunir un verano en Palma. Comenzaron a ensayar, sacaron un EP y se sumaron tres miembros más al grupo. Ofrecieron una gira de conciertos por Reino Unido y tras el éxito cosechado en esas tierras, se convirtieron en la primera banda mallorquina en grabar en Abbey Road Studios, en Londres. Su directo es arrollador y su música evoca y resignifica el rock and roll americano de los años 60 y 70.Escuchar audio

In 2013, THE OLD DEAD TREE reunited briefly for a mini-European tour to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their album The Nameless Disease.

In early 2024, while working on their first album in 17 years, they recorded an EP at Abbey Road Studios. The album Second Thoughts was released by the end of 2024.

Im Dezember 1965 haben die Beatles mit "Rubber Soul" ihr sechstes Studioalbum herausgebracht. In der Geschichte der Band ist das besonders wichtig, weil es einen Wendepunkt markiert. "Rubber Soul" von den Beatles gilt als die Erfindung des Rockalbums, erklärt Frank König. So etwas hatte es vorher noch nicht gegeben: Vor dem Album gab es keine einzige Single. Im Dezember 1965 ist einfach das Album erschienen und hat damit die Musikwelt und die Beatles für immer verändert. 1965 sind die Beatles von einer großen Tour durch die USA zurückgekommen, auf der sie auch Elvis Presley, Bob Dylan und The Byrds getroffen hatten. Die Beatles hatten auf dieser Reise unglaublich viele neue Eindrücke gesammelt. Nach ihrer Rückkehr nach England stand für die Gruppe nicht viel an, abgesehen von vier Wochen Zeit im Studio, um neue Musik zu machen. Ein perfekter Zeitpunkt, um alle Eindrücke richtig zu verarbeiten und zu neuer Musik werden zu lassen. Und mit "Rubber Soul" hatten die Beatles dann wieder so viel Inspirationskraft freigesetzt, dass daraufhin neue (legendäre) Musik entstanden ist. Beach-Boys-Mastermind Brian Wilson hat die Platte zu ihrem eigenen Meilenstein "Pet Sounds" inspiriert. Neue Eindrücke verarbeiten und neue Dinge ausprobieren – beides machen die Beatles auf ihrem Album "Rubber Soul". Das hören wir zum Beispiel auch sehr eindrücklich beim Song "Norwegian Wood" an einem Instrument. Es ist das erste Mal in der westlichen Musik, dass ein Pop- bzw. Folk-Song veröffentlicht wird, auf dem eine indische Sitar zu hören ist. Die hatte George Harrison mit zu den Beatles gebracht. Entdeckt hatte er sie bei den Dreharbeiten zum Film "Help!". In der Zeit bevor die Band für "Rubber Soul" in die EMI-Studios, die späteren Abbey Road Studios, gegangen ist, hatte sich bei den Bandmitgliedern vieles verändert, erzählt Katharina Heinius. Es gab Hochzeiten, Umzüge, Hauskäufe, Nachwuchs und Ähnliches. Dinge, die oft im Leben den persönlichen Blickwinkel verändern und auch bereichern können. "Ich finde, man kann an diesem Album sehr gut ablesen, dass etwas Neues beginnt. [...] Es ist ganz viel Neues zu spüren, aber eben auch noch ein bisschen Tradition, so wie sie eben in den Alben vorher Musik gemacht haben und auch gedacht haben", sagt Podcaster und Musikjournalist Ocke Bandixen über "Rubber Soul". __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Rubber Soul" sprechen wir im Podcast (13:28) – "Drive My Car" (28:33) – "Norwegian Wood" (46:02) – "Nowhere Man" (56:08) – "In My Life" (01:06:03) – "If I Needed Someone" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "Rubber Soul" findet ihr hier: https://1.ard.de/the_beatles_rubber_soul __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

The now London-based Polish pianist and composer Hania Rani quickly attracted fans with her 2019 album of solo piano works in the post-classical style, a blend of classical lyricism and minimalist patterns. Her later albums expanded to include electronics, and her voice; she is equally versed in the music of composers like Philip Glass and bands like Radiohead. But her new record is something different – a four part piano concerto with orchestra, called Non Fiction, which is a reflection on the human cost of war. The work was recorded at Abbey Road Studios, with a 45-piece orchestra and experimental instrumentalists Rakhi Singh (Manchester Collective), Jack Wylie (Portico Quartet), and percussionist/composer Valentina Magaletti. Hania Rani performs the piano part of the opening movement of the piece Non Fiction, and other original works, in-studio. Set list: 1. Non-Fiction I - Sonore 2. Nostalgia 3. F Major

Now working independently, collaborating with legends like Paul Oakenfold and Alfie Boe, and recording at Abbey Road Studios, Jessica opens up about mental health, self-leadership, and finding peace in the chaos of the music industry.

Abbey Road Studios in London, England was the world's first purpose-built recording studio. Opened way back in 1931, this building and the people inside have been at the cutting edge of recording technology for over 90s years. Abbey Road Studios is most famous for being where The Beatles recorded almost all of their music, but it also drove innovation with stereo recording, multitracks, editing, and the shift from analog to digital recording.  In addition to all of those amazing Beatles records – which we'll get to – some other stuff recorded at Abbey Road includes Dark Side of the Moon and albums from Kanye West, Lady Gaga, Oasis, the Hollies, Radiohead, and the Zombies. Music scores for Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Marvel movies, and video game soundtracks for Halo, Call of Duty, and World of Warcraft. They even recorded some of Winston Churchill's famous speeches during World War II to help keep morale high.  From classical roots to rock rebellion, Abbey Road's always been ahead of the game, rewriting rules along the way. So kick back, feel the beat, and join us as we explore the studio that turned sound into a revolution. Let's roll! Episode Playlist Check out our episode playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠h⁠ere⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

I told the other We Will Rank You hosts I'd have all the Beatles albums ranked within a year. Four years later, I've only recorded about half of them but here they come!  You're not going to see any more episodes here until the one where all four OG hosts ranked- Well I'm not telling you which one. You'll have to wait and see and if you want to hear Jim and I rank an album in Liverpool, you'll just have to figure out how to spell Quarrelmen and go subscribe, won't you? WON'T you? We're on Facebook, Instagram and Threads too so do the thing. Breaking up the band to start a solo career? Nah but, for now, here's the Fab Four…. THE QUARRELMEN PODCAST #1Please Please Me ranked at Abbey RoadWhat's your most loved and least favorite song on the first Beatles album?! One, two, three, FAH! The Quarrelmen Beatles podcast miniseries kicks off with England's own Richard Merrett (Airhead/the Wilsons) and his young sons Frank and George Merrett ranking Please Please Me in the most famous studio in the world.  Recorded back in 2021 at the end of the last Stones n' Roses UK tour, the California band recorded a version of "Revolution 9" with 1960s microphones used by "the boys" and Beatles Anthology, Rock Band and Love engineer Chris Bolster with Joe Wyatt (now Giles Martin's assistant). After a quick photoshoot of the band walking across THE street, singer Adam Gimbel welcomed the Merretts into the cozy Gatehouse studio to record the very first episode of the Quarrelmen. He had no idea it would be four busy, crazy years before the world would hear it. The kids are now senior citizens. The results are, quite simply, the most endearing Beatles podcast episode ever immortalized at Abbey Road....or anywhere else. Decades of fandom and childlike wonder collide with memories and a ranking of least and most favorites on the 1963 classic debut.

Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees and “British Invasion” pioneers, The Zombies, todayannounce the release of Odessey & Oracle Mono Remastered on September 26th. The album, thefirst of four definitive physical reissues from their catalog, includes the classic songs “Time OfThe Season,” “Care of Cell 44,” and “This Will Be Our Year” and is a regular entry in “BestAlbums of All Time” lists in publications like Rolling Stone, NME, and Mojo Magazine. Therelease, which coincides with The Zombies' documentary, Hung Up On A Dream, marks the firsttime the band's original mono mix, remastered from studio tapes, has appeared on LP since therecord's British issue in 1968, presenting the album as they originally intended it to be heard.Pre-order the album on all formats here.Recorded primarily at London's legendary Abbey Road Studios in 1967, Odessey & Oracle wasself-produced in Mono on a shoestring budget by primary songwriters Rod Argent (keyboards/vocals) and Chris White (bass/vocals). Under last-minute pressure from their record label, thealbum was hastily remixed in the newly emerging Stereo format, which sacrificed key elementsfrom the Mono recording, most notably the beloved horn parts in “This Will Be Our Year”.The band today also share the first track off the album, the mono remastered version of “ThisWill Be Our Year”, with the horn parts restored. Although never released as a single, this deepcut has found a new life thanks to prominent uses in TV and film, including memorable scenes inMad Men, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, and Schitt's Creek, and covers by artists like FooFighters, OK Go and Susanna Hoffs. Its positive and uplifting message has been embraced bycouples as a popular wedding song, and become a staple of New Year's playlists. Listen here.The album also includes new liner notes from famed writer, David Fricke. Read an excerptbelow:Odessey and Oracle is very much of and about its time: songs of youth and love – thelucky strike of attraction ("I Want Her She Wants Me"); flickering memories held tight("Brief Candles"); longing that defies the odds ("Maybe After He's Gone") – from pop'shigh season of amour, a crowded nirvana of landmark debuts (Pink Floyd, the Doors, theJimi Hendrix Experience) and definitive accounts of Britain's psychedelic bloom…Thisalbum was also built to stand the test of time, at the 11th hour by a band with everythingto prove. "We were always dissatisfied with the production of our records," Argent said in1971 of the Zombies' Decca work. "We wanted to produce an album before we broke upto satisfy ourselves." The result was a fearlessness that still rings fresh, that inventiondriven by the Zombies' stringent resources and their confidence in the songs. Most of "ARose for Emily" is simply piano and vocal, an Argent-Blunstone duet with streaks ofchoral sigh.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Because Apparently We've All Had Enough Capes and Spandex This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl are talking Fantastic Four: First Steps, Happy Gilmore 2, Movies we want to catch at the theater for the rest of 2025, and the latest Superhero Showdown at the Box Office. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Box Office Showdown: 10:49 Movie in the Back Half of 2025: 20:45 Happy Gilmore 2: 33:27 Fantastic Four: 45:22 Superman vs. Marvel’s First Family at the Box Office Superman grabbed a bigger domestic haul, but First Steps showed stronger international momentum and may signal better legs in overseas markets. Superman Box Office https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl1543340801/?ref_=bo_hm_rd Fantastic Four: First Steps Box Office https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2429649665/?ref_=bo_hm_rd Remaining 2025 Must-Sees at the Theater Darryl: Tron: Ares Avatar: Fire and Ash Nobody 2 The Running Man MK 2 Predator: Badlands Weapons Caught Stealing The Long Walk Brian: Caught Stealing The Naked Gun Tron:Ares Mortal Kombat 2 Predator: Badlands Weapons Twinless The Running Man The Toxic Avenger TMNT 35th Anniversary Release Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) Summary Nearly three decades after winning the Tour Championship, Happy (Adam Sandler) is now a grieving widower and alcoholic. To pay for his daughter Vienna's ballet school in Paris, he returns to pro golf—and chaos ensues. The film leans hard into callbacks, celebrity cameos, and legacy sequel nostalgia.  Director: Kyle Newacheck Writers: Tim Herlihy & Adam Sandler  Cast: Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore Julie Bowen as Virginia Venit Christopher McDonald as Shooter McGavin Ben Stiller as Hal L. (in sobriety group leadership) Bad Bunny as Happy's new caddy Benny Safdie as golf mogul Frank Manatee Additional Cast: Sunny Sandler (Vienna), Sadie Sandler, Travis Kelce, Margaret Qualley, John Daly, Rory McIlroy, Eminem (cameos), and more sport & music legends   Production Notes: Produced by Happy Madison and STX Films, filmed in North Jersey over fall 2024; directed by Newacheck with music by Rupert Gregson-Williams. The production is built around cameo-heavy nostalgia and real-world athletes.  Budget: Estimated at $30 million, modest compared to legacy sequel standards.  Distribution: Released globally via Netflix on July 25, 2025.  Reception: Critics remain divided—mixed reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (65%) and Popcornmeter (~70%). Praise comes for Sandler's commitment and cameo spectacle; criticism centers on overreliance on callbacks, tonally uneven storytelling (including a shocking death), and lazy legacy sequel tropes. Some outlets called it a “cinematic disaster,” while others saw it as funny and heartfelt escapism.  Rating out of 10 Cameo Filled Nostalgic Rounds of Maxi Golf Darryl: 2/10 Brian: 7.5/10 Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Summary Set in a retro‑futuristic 1960s alternate universe (Earth‑828), Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm are already established heroes expecting their first child. When cosmic threats like Galactus and Silver Surfer emerge, the team must band together to save the world—and their family dynamic. Director: Matt Shakman Writers: Josh Friedman, Eric Pearson, Jeff Kaplan, Ian Springer; story contributions by Kat Wood  Cast: Pedro Pascal (Mister Fantastic) Vanessa Kirby (Invisible Woman) Joseph Quinn (Human Torch) Ebon Moss‑Bachrach (The Thing) Julia Garner (Silver Surfer) Ralph Ineson (Galactus) Paul Walter Hauser (Mole Man/Harvey Elder) John Malkovich as Red Ghost (cameo)  Production Notes: Filmed at Pinewood Studios in the UK with shoots in Derbyshire Dales and Oviedo; styled with practical miniatures, retro‑futuristic set design reminiscent of Jack Kirby comics; score by Michael Giacchino recorded at Abbey Road Studios; executive production overseen by Kevin Feige; post‑credits nod to late producer Jamie Christopher and director's mother Inez Shakman in homage scenes  Budget: Estimated over $200 million  Box Office (Opening Weekend): Domestic 3‑day: $117.6–118M across 4,125 theaters (including ~$57M previews) International: $100M from 52 territories Global debut: ~$218M   Reception & Context: Critical consensus: ~88% on Rotten Tomatoes; CinemaScore “A‑” reflects strong audience response. Reviews praise cast chemistry, emotional grounding, and visual style—though tone is more serious than comic-minded critics expected. Some reviewers note a pacing lull and lack of overt humor from a director known for lighter work. Industry analysts call this the first confirmed MCU blockbuster of 2025—ushering in Phase 6 with confidence and momentum after previous underperformers.

Ein wiederveröffentlichter Back-Katalog, ein Best-Of-Album, eine ausgiebige Tour und dann noch der Soundtrack zum Blockbuster "Wonka" mit Timothée Chalamet in der Hauptrolle: seit dem letzten Studioalbum "Office Politics" (2019) hat Frontmann Neil Hannon gemeinsam mit seiner Band The Divine Comedy so einiges realisiert – und nebenher immer auch an neuen Songs gearbeitet. "Rainy Sunday Afternoon" wird ihr Album Nummer 13 heißen, das im September erscheint und in den legendären Abbey Road Studios aufgenommen wurde. Die neuen Songs verbinden dabei auf schräg humorige Weise die weltweit eher präsente Unruhe, die auch Hannon im Privaten wie Politischen beobachtet.
