Nothing says “credible music journalism” quite like blindly ranking ten legendary rock bands without knowing which one is coming next. Welcome to another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where Queen gets the throne, Metallica becomes the baseline for civilization, and somehow The Beatles end up staring directly at KISS's backside.We kick things off with a blind ranking of some of the biggest rock bands ever: Metallica, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Nirvana, Guns N' Roses, Pink Floyd, Queen, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and KISS. The rules are simple: once you place a band, you're stuck with it. Naturally, this creates an absolutely flawless list that no music fan could possibly have an issue with.Just kidding. It's a disaster.Metallica lands at number five and becomes the dividing line for the entire exercise. The Rolling Stones climb toward the top, AC/DC gets placed too low and immediately causes regret, Queen claims number one, and then The Beatles arrive after almost all the good spots have disappeared. The result? The Beatles finish DEAD LAST behind KISS.Music historians, please direct your complaints somewhere else. We have enough going on.That leads to a bigger Beatles debate as Rafe argues that the band deserves enormous credit for what they changed, but that doesn't mean everybody has to automatically put them at number one. Moon attempts to defend civilization. Lern reveals she does not suffer from “Beatle boner mania.” Somehow Michael McDonald becomes the secret fifth Beatle. This is why nobody lets us curate the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.Speaking of legendary musicians, the crew gets into the backlash surrounding a George Michael tribute featuring performers including Teddy Swims and Sombr. Some viewers were furious with the choices, while the show tries to determine what exactly would have made everybody happy. Adam Lambert gets some love, Andrew Ridgeley's name is miraculously remembered, and Riz discovers his biggest problem with Sombr may simply be that somebody stole the “E” from his name.Then Rafe's birthday completely takes over the studio.The crew surprises him with a brand-new grill for his new house, which immediately raises the question of whether they can fire it up inside the studio. For legal reasons and continued access to oxygen, the answer appears to be no.But the grill is only the beginning. Rafe gets a personal birthday message from Rick of Rick's Ace Hardware — whom Rafe immediately embraces as his new father — along with an Ace bucket loaded with homeowner supplies. It turns out Rafe's previous love for the store traveled up the Ace Hardware corporate ladder and was even shared at a company convention. That's right: Rafe somehow became an Ace Hardware influencer without even trying. Take that, every 22-year-old making sponsored TikToks.There are also homemade deviled eggs, handmade coasters featuring Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and even Rafe's own dog, plus the discovery that Rafe shares a birthday with Monica Bellucci. At this point the man has a grill, deviled eggs, a bucket and Monica Bellucci spiritually connected to him through a calendar. There's nowhere left to go.And because this comedy podcast refuses to stay in one lane, Crap on Celebrities brings even more chaos: Slipknot and Marilyn Manson tour backlash, a Linkin Park documentary, Taylor Swift's former Beverly Hills home hitting the market, Diddy prison reports, Raven-Symoné revealing an extremely specific period routine, a Rick Wakeman concert for rescued bears, a heavy Matthew Perry documentary, and wildly divided reactions to a new Tom Cruise movie.There's rock history, birthday surprises, celebrity news, angry music fans and enough hardware-store enthusiasm to make a suburban dad shed a single tear into his freshly cut lawn.Happy birthday, Rafe.

Join Bianca and Julian as they turn their attention to the other half of the Lennon–McCartney songwriting team - a deep dive into 10 of their favourite Beatle-era John Lennon songs. They start by unpacking their fascination with John: his undeniable coolness, razor-sharp humour, and the way his martyrdom reshaped how the world remembers him. They also explore the pain and curiosity at the heart of his music, from the childhood trauma that followed him throughout his life to the ways he channelled it into some of the most haunting, vulnerable, and startlingly honest pop music ever recorded. Then comes the main event: a guided tour through their chosen tracks, digging into the writing, performances, arrangements, and production choices that made John such a singular songwriter. Along the way, they break down the qualities they love most about his music - his bluesiness, colourful wordplay, horizontal melodies, and instinct for breaking the rules of song structure, key, and tempo. So grab your Rickenbacker, put on your round glasses, and get ready to rattle your jewellery. Email us at anythingbuttoto@gmail.com Theme music by Daniel Konikoff
Giles Martin is here to discuss his work with the Beatles and the new deluxe reissue of their 1965 album, Rubber Soul, challenges and surprises he encountered delving into the original session tapes and his unique temporal mindset to mixing a sixty-year-old album, how the emotional tenor of a song can influence his technical approach, his history remixing Beatles music including Revolver and Sgt, Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, why he supposes so many children of the Beatles and from within their orbit have chosen to follow in their parents' musical footsteps, the Beatles' desire to make records that sounded as mighty as those by American bands and the conflicts this caused with their own label's mastering and manufacturing departments, how Frank Sinatra fits into all of this, Martin's use of machine learning to enhance Beatle recordings and fulfill their original vision, input he receives from Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, insights about the discovery of the previously unreleased, unknown John Lennon home demo for “Little Girl,” George Harrison trying to teach the Beatles “Think For Yourself,” the increasing humanization of the Beatles, Martin's preferred music listening format, and much more.THIS MONTH, EVERY COMPLETE KREATIVE KONTROL EPISODE IS ONLY ACCESSIBLE TO PATREON SUPPORTERS STARTING AT $6/MONTH.

John Lennon, the former Beatle, was shot and killed on 8th December 1980 outside his residence, The Dakota in New York City.The 40-year-old legendary musician was returning from a recording session with his wife, Yoko Ono, when he was ambushed by Mark Chapman, a mentally ill fan.But why?Join our PATREON !(Get extra episodes, research articles and more)
New York, 8 dicembre 1980. John Lennon ha quarant'anni e sta vivendo un momento di rinascita personale e artistica. Dopo anni lontano dalle scene, è appena tornato con Double Fantasy e sembra pronto ad aprire un nuovo capitolo della sua vita insieme a Yoko Ono. Quella sera, però, al rientro nella sua casa al Dakota, sull'Upper West Side, Lennon trova ad aspettarlo un uomo che aveva già incontrato poche ore prima: Mark David Chapman. Nel pomeriggio gli aveva persino firmato una copia del suo ultimo album. Poche ore dopo, Chapman gli spara a distanza ravvicinata e mette fine alla vita di uno degli artisti più famosi del Novecento. L'assassino viene arrestato quasi immediatamente, ma il caso non smette di sollevare domande. Chi era davvero Mark David Chapman? Perché aveva sviluppato una tale ossessione per Lennon? Quanto contavano Il giovane Holden, il desiderio di fama e il risentimento verso l'immagine pubblica dell'ex Beatle? E che cosa resta, oggi, delle teorie che hanno cercato di collegare l'omicidio alla precedente sorveglianza dell'FBI? Ne parliamo assieme a Giacomo Giaquinto: narratore, fumettista e autore di romanzi.

Beatle Bottoms. To some, bottoms is a synonym for “tushie”, as they say in the industry. For Tony & T.J., it's their least favourite Fab 4 songs. And boy do they just disagree. But there ain't no good guy, there ain't no bad guy, there's only this deluxe reissue of one of our favorite early episodes, reproduced for disc by Grandmaster Casey. ----- [Originally released September 5, 2020] Clickbait: Are T.J. and Tony in a Beatles cult? The answer may dumbfound you!! In this Labor Day Spectacular (not that spectacular really) T.J. and Tony comb the floor of the Sea of Holes in search of the least fab Beatles songs. Listen for adjectives like "treacly" and "loathsome"(!). Also included are hot takes on R.E.M. vs Barenaked Ladies, and a very brief tribute to short form improv. Meanwhile, T.J. discloses one of his "Beatle nightmares" while Tony wears out his “Beatle bag.” Fact cheque: "It's All Too Much" was recorded at De Lane Lea Studios and "Baby, You're A Rich Man" at Olympic Sound Studios. Neither T.J. nor Tony can remember what a clavioline is. EPISODE LINKS: Listen to the Beatle Bottoms playlist here! Check out UBP's videos on TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, or Instagram!

A frequent source of discussion on A-SIDES has been the band Cheap Trick, with occasional splashes of Jellyfish and The Beatles. If you enjoy any of those bands (or all three!), you definitely need to check out Central Illinois musician Don Mabus' latest album, Brighter Day. Don joins Episode 246 to share details on the recording of his new record, his favorite Beatle, even performing in Sturgis, and an encounter with a member of Cheap Trick! Huge thanks to Don for the fun and insightful conversation. Listen to Don's new album Brighter Day on Apple Music, Spotify, or wherever you find you music. And if you live here in the Peoria, IL area, hit him up for a copy on CD!
Originally aired May 22, 2021 ----- The British Rubber Soul is for the birds! OK, that might be a little aggressive. The album's a masterpiece, but T.J. and Tony make a pretty compelling argument that nobody really misses "What Goes On," and that Dave Dexter's U.S. version for Capitol Records is just a superior collection. It's so fine. It's sunshine. It's PART TWO of our U.S. Rubber Soul deep dish. And along the way, we ponder: Where does journalist Maureen Cleave fit into the lineup: Is she the fifth Beatle... or THE THIRD? And where does Ed McMahon land? (Spoiler: the ninth Beatle.) Which iconic songs would the guys etch into their solo Eagles Mt. Rushmores? "Run For Your Life" may not age well, but we like to think our dumb Peter Cetera jokes will. YOU BE THE JUDGE.

En la Mesa de Redacción con Marina Mtnez Vicens, Aneyma León y Roger de Gràcia repasamos frases que la tele hizo famosas y que hemos incorporado a nuestro lenguaje habitual. Hablamos de instrumentos molestos, cuando tocar la gaita es literal y figurado y de la presencia en Barcelona de la hermana de John Lennon para rendir homenaje al mítico Beatle.
Vingt-cinq ans que je vous raconte La Story sur Nostalgie, 25 ans où j'ai pu laisser parler cette passion qui m'a ouvert les portes d'un autre monde quand j'étais môme. Mais malheureusement, il n'y pas eu que des événements heureux qui m'ont valu de revenir en radio sur des carrières légendaires. Et dès la saison 1 de cette série d'ailleurs. Je me rappelle arriver un matin de novembre 2001 chez Nosta et m'écrier quand on m'annonce la nouvelle : oh non pas lui. Oui, George Harrison est mort, à l'âge de 58 ans. Un second Beatles de parti, c'est terrible !Pauvre George. Il venait de sortir un nouvel album qui ne passionnait pas grand monde, il faut bien le dire. C'est vrai qu'il était le plus discret des quatre Beatles mais il avait pourtant signé quelques classiques du plus grand groupe de l'histoire comme Taxman, While my guitar gently weeps ou encore Something, sa seule chanson à avoir eu droit à une sortie en single en face A.Et c'est vrai aussi que George a souffert d'être le plus jeune. Pour Lennon et McCartney c'est le p'tit car il n'a que quatorze ans quand il les rejoint alors que les deux autres en ont quinze et dix-sept. Il faut dire que, un ou deux ans de plus, à cet âge-là, c'est énorme. Et donc George a dû se battre pour placer une chanson de lui par album car Lennon & McCartney ne le prenaient pas au sérieux. Je vous l'ai dit, c'est le petit, tellement qu'en 1971, il y a 55 ans, il sortait un triple album, All Things Must Pass, N°1 des ventes, avec toutes les chansons dont les autres n'ont pas voulu et qui auraient pu être des chansons des Beatles s'ils avaient continué leur route ensemble.George était revenu au premier plan en 1987 avec un énorme hit et un album à succès. A cette époque, il n'y avait plus personne pour y croire. Sauf ses amis Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Roy Orbison et Jeff Lynne d'Electric Light Orchestra avec qui il enregistre une chanson pour une face B d'un single de cet album sous le nom des Travelling Wilburys. Sa firme de disques lui dit de voir plus loin car c'est vrai qu'on n'a jamais vu dans l'histoire, un super groupe d'un niveau pareil. Et voilà George encore N°1.Puis c'est le succès des séries Beatles Anthology en 1995 et 96 où ils enregistrent deux nouveaux titres à trois, mais en 1997 tombe la terrible nouvelle : George souffre du cancer du fumeur qui dans quatre ans, finira par avoir raison de lui. Entretemps, il survivra au terrible homejacking perpétré par un fan fou furieux. Souffrant des 40 coups de couteau reçus, George Harrison n'en a pour autant pas perdu son légendaire sens de l'humour avec lequel il avait brillé au sein des Beatles. Dans le communiqué qu'il publie le lendemain depuis son lit d'hôpital, il déclare que son agresseur n'était ni un voleur, ni un gars refusé à une audition pour les Travelling Wilburys.Alors pour se souvenir de lui, on va revenir à cette époque des Beatles où George devait batailler pour placer un titre sur un disque ; et bien, juste retour des choses, figurez-vous que l'une de ses compositions est aujourd'hui la plus écoutée des Beatles en streaming, et elle commence comme ceci ...
En 1970, Eric Clapton quiso alejarse de los focos. No quería ser una estrella ni tocar interminables solos, sino pasar desapercibido. De esa necesidad nació Derek and The Dominos, banda formada junto a Bobby Whitlock, Carl Radle y Jim Gordon. La historia del grupo estuvo marcada por el amor no correspondido y la tragedia. Tras colaborar en el debut en solitario de George Harrison, Clapton se enamoró de Pattie Boyd, esposa del ex Beatle. Su obsesión inspiró «Layla», uno de sus grandes himnos, que Clapton ha interpretado más de 1.400 veces.

We mark 60 years since The Beatles' last tour stop at Candlestick Park, then trace how each Beatle handles touring after the band stops hitting the road. We also bounce through rock news, record-club nostalgia, and a few personal music picks that connect the past to what we still listen to now. • The Beatles' 1966 Candlestick Park San Francisco, CA• The rooftop performance at Apple Corps as a different kind of “show” • Post-Beatles touring paths for Paul, George, Ringo, and John • Revolver highlights, studio risks, and song-by-song facts • Capitol Records track cuts and the “Yesterday and Today” butcher cover story • Richie Blackmore's one-song Deep Purple return and why “Smoke on the Water” endures • Remembering ZZ Top drummer Frank Beard and the MTV era impact • Minute with Jimmy pick: Skegss “New York, California” • Elvis “Don't Be Cruel” and “Hound Dog” jukebox stats as a snapshot of 1956 • Quick recommendations: Tom Petty “Walls” and Camper Van Beethoven self-titled third albumLearn Something New orRemember Something OldPlease like and follow the Music in My Shoes Facebook and Instagram pagesReach out to us at musicinmyshoes@gmail.comSend us a one-way message.

¿Sabías que millones de personas cantaron un mantra hindú sin darse cuenta gracias a una canción de George Harrison? Descubre el verdadero significado espiritual de My Sweet Lord y la búsqueda interior que transformó la vida del ex Beatle. George Harrison fue mucho más que el guitarrista de Los Beatles. Detrás de su música existía una profunda búsqueda espiritual que lo llevó a estudiar el hinduismo, viajar a la India, aprender junto al maestro Ravi Shankar y establecer una estrecha relación con el movimiento Hare Krishna. En este video exploramos la historia detrás de My Sweet Lord, una de las canciones más exitosas de la historia del rock, para descubrir por qué millones de personas terminaron cantando el mantra "Hare Krishna, Hare Rama" sin conocer su verdadero significado. También analizaremos cómo George Harrison encontró inspiración en la filosofía védica, el Bhagavad Gita, el taoísmo y otras tradiciones orientales que marcaron profundamente su obra.

In this episode, we examine "The Commitments" as Blanche's latest boyfriend refuses to sleep with her — which sends Blanche into an existential spiral about whether she's losing her appeal. The episode gives Rue McClanahan something specific to play: not rejection exactly, but the threat of it, which for Blanche is almost worse. Meanwhile, Dorothy wins tickets to Beatlemania and develops a fixation on the cast member playing a Beatle that is entirely earnest and completely Bea Arthur. --- If you would like to support this podcast by making a donation, please do so with cashapp to $pasta26mc
She could not simply listen to the soundtrack of the 60s. She had to find a way inside of it… or, at least backstage. She is Glorious Groupie Goddess, Pamela Des Barres and she joins Weezy and Lisa for a captivating conversation about love, music and the cultural revolution that forever changed us all.Pamela reflects on coming of age as the buttoned-up 50s gave way to the clothing optional 60s, when rock music moved minds, stirred loins and invited adventure.Her “Meet The Beatles” album was not just a revelation. Pamela read it as an instruction. At 14, she and her Beatle besotted besties made their way into the hills of Bel Air, spotted a kid on a bike who looked like he lived there. He did. He was Jerry Lewis's son, Ronnie, and he let the girls into his backyard where they crawled through the Beatles-mansion-adjacent bushes and remained there all night until they were picked up, in the morning, not by the Beatles, but by the cops.By age 18, Pamela's tactics had blossomed into: 1) Look cute. 2) Be legally of age. 3) Knock on the stage door. Her subsequent friendships and romances with rock superstars are chronicled in her groundbreaking memoir, I'm With The Band. Here, Pamela reveals remarkable details about her relationships with Keith Moon, Mick Jagger, Jimmy Page, Gram Parsons, Frank Zappa, Jim Morrison and the legends of Laurel Canyon.Frank Zappa was so taken by the music muses that he fashioned Pamela and her fellow fangirls into a dance troupe called GTOs (Girls Together Outrageously). They set the dance tone at The Whiskey and The Shrine, eventually recording their own album! Today, Pamela continues to inspire new generations through her women's writing workshops, rock-and-roll tours, one-woman shows, and live events. She also hints at her next book, 'Sex, God and Rock 'n' Roll', revealing how a lifelong interest in spirituality has paralelled her passion for music.Plus, we challenge Pamela with a round of Rock Star Boyfriend Trivia!In media recommendations --Lisa: Lifestyle influencer Stephanie Joplin, @betterwithchardonnayWeezy: The series, A Woman Of Substance on BritboxPath Points of Interest:Pamela Des BarresBooks by Pamela Des BarresPamela Des Barres on WikipediaPamela Des Barres on FacebookPamela Des Barres on InstagramI'm With The Band by Pamela Des BarresStephanie JoplinA Woman Of Substance Media PathMedia Path on FacebookMedia Path on InstagramMedia Path on XLisa's Upcoming Comedy Dates at Flappers

Beatle Bangers? I barely even Beatle knew'ers! Is this thing on? No, for real, is this thing on? The microphone in my hand, I mean. Is it on? Can people hear these bits or is the silence merely judgement? What if the XLR is broken? Or the DI? Maybe the audio fella's on coke? Surely that's possible, but what if the silence is because these “jokes” are terrible? And maybe they're not even jokes at all, but more of a psychological crisis, thinly masquerading as “comedy”? If so, would there be more questions like:
Rock Talk Studio: Reviewing Rock 'n' Roll Books and Documentaries
Rock n roll books usually follow a predictable path, but these five books go somewhere completely different.

The great Todd Rundgren once sang, "I don't wanna work, I wanna Beatle Banger, all day!" Well, Mr. Motor City (sorry Jack White! Not sorry, Kid C&ck!), the UBP is back with yet another powerful/perhaps controversial edition of UBP Beatle-esque Bangers! These are, well, bangers that the UBP-3 believe share lysergic properties with songs written by the Fab 5, and perhaps, one or three of Tony Sheridan's #BeatBros. Do you like these bangers?

Why an Emily Henry interview now? Sanjana and Tyler dig into Bloomberg’s recent piece on the author, where she discusses Hollywood adaptations and delivers the all-timer line: “A lot of actors think that it’s less humiliating to pretend to be a Beatle than it is to pretend to be in love.” Then: Naina Kumar joins to talk about heyday rom-com movies as novelistic underpinnings—see her latest, Just a Highland Fling!—and our hosts launch the Yearner Hall of Fame. Congrats to Ethan Hawke and Hanif Abdurraqib! The Bloomberg Emily Henry interview. Naina Kumar’s Just a Highland Fling (out this week!), Say You’ll Be Mine, and Flirting with Disaster. Her rom-com Mount Rushmore: When Harry Met Sally, You’ve Got Mail, Palm Springs, and While You Were Sleeping. Bonus: Kate & Leopold. Yearner Hall of Fame inductees: Ethan Hawke (his “the one who’s in love always wins” interview with Amelia Dimoldenberg) and poet/romantic/essayist Hanif Abdurraqib.

Andy Warhol was the first artist to achieve rock star status. He was a Beatle with a silkscreen printer. His work and play space, the Factory, attracted people of all ages; rich and poor, straight and gay, sane and…not so sane. It was in the Factory that he was shot by a would-be assassin. He was rushed to a hospital and pronounced clinically dead. But Andy Warhol's second life began the moment he was resurrected on an operating table. As soon as his heart began to beat again, he became a true cultural icon – bigger than his paintings or his Polaroids or his experimental films, bigger than life itself. Andy Warhol became the future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Creative CuriosityWelcome back to the Late Boomers Podcast! We're Cathy and Merry, and in this episode, we embark on a fascinating journey with our guest, Maxim Langstaff. Maxim has worn many creative hats: music executive, filmmaker, dog lover, and now novelist. Together, we explore how the art of storytelling evolves across a lifetime, blending history, folklore, fact, and imagination. This episode is a goldmine for anyone passionate about music history (think The Beatles and John Denver!), the enduring mysteries of Sasquatch, and the creative process, whether in novels, film, or music.We dive deep into Maxim's creative evolution, discuss his latest novel Sasqet, unpack the cultural differences between Sasquatch and Bigfoot, and share behind-the-scenes stories from the heart of the music industry. Plus, we talk about how staying curious and open to new adventures lets us all reinvent ourselves at any stage in life.Key TakeawaysEmbracing Creativity Later in Life:It's never too late to begin a new creative chapter. Maxim Langstaff shares how his journey from music and film into novel writing was sparked by solitude, curiosity, and a love of storytelling (02:12–03:34).The Power of StorytellingWhether through songs, novels, or films, storytelling connects us via empathy and shared beliefs (11:00–12:59). Music, especially, is a universal language that transcends boundaries.Fact vs. Fiction: The Magic of MythsWe discuss why mysterious legends like Sasquatch persist through centuries and how our need for belief often outweighs a strict adherence to fact (05:49–10:11). Myths can be nutritious for the human imagination and serve deep cultural purposes.Sasquatch vs. Bigfoot:Maxim distinguishes between the indigenous-rooted Sasquatch and the pop-culture phenomenon of Bigfoot, offering a thoughtful perspective on how we shape myths to fit our comfort zones (06:45–08:05, 43:41–45:00).Behind the Scenes with Legends:From working with Sir George Martin, “the fifth Beatle,” to collaborating with John Denver, Maxim recounts career-defining lessons in honesty, risk-taking, and authenticity (13:57–19:16).Nature, Curiosity & Lifelong Growth:Maxim reveals how his dog and time in nature taught him humility, resilience, and the importance of being curious qualities essential to storytelling and life (34:43–36:46).Advice for Late Bloomers:For those looking to write, create, or reinvent: start with curiosity and let your passion guide you. Don't chase outcomes—chase the process (46:53–48:43).The Future of Sasqet:In addition to a sequel, Maxim is working to adapt his novel into a streaming TV series, aiming to bring its message to a new generation (49:16–50:57).If you love stories that blend music, myth, and inspiration to show it's never too late to reinvent yourself, share this episode with a friend! And if Maxim's journey sparked your curiosity, visit sasqetthebook.com to learn more about his work (and maybe read the book before it hits the screen!).Don't forget to subscribe to the Late Boomers Podcast on your favorite platform and on YouTube!

Sunrise doesn't last all morning, but maybe it'll stay around a bit longer for our episode on All Things Must Pass, the trailblazing triple album by former Beatle George Harrison! The Beatles passed up on a hefty number of George's songs over the years, and with their breakup he was free to create like never before! His proper debut solo record blends genres, explores spirituality, and piques interest like few records can. With Phil Spector's wall of sound production style backing up folk- and Hindu-inspired rock, All Things Must Pass is George at his finest.This week we're learning British slang, asking What Is Life, and Letting It Down! Will this solo record rise above Connor's Beatles score? If you really wanna know George, we'll cover his musical past (all the way back to the womb), his beloved Friar Park home, and his final message to the world. The Mixtaper is back with George Harrispins about thieving monkeys, botanical inquest, and trap shooting! Then we'll get a little Wah-Wah and a LOT of slide guitar as we focus up on this record, right down to the special Apple Jam ending!Which gnome are you? What's your favorite ex-Beatle solo album? Have you ever used the term "flumbertyjack" before? Let us know! And be sure to follow for the shocking end to the Year Of Redemption next week!

This week, we're scratching The Itch to get amphibious and delirious! We saw some toads, some frogs, and some excellent bands, and now it's time to talk about it. First, Aaron pivots his original plans in favor of an impromptu free (or suggested donation) street fest performance by Lip Critic and Delivery Boys. Will The Itch become fans of yet MORE New York acts? Then he sees some familiar faces in recent guests Toadies and perennial favorites Local H, along with Dallas's own Vandoliers in a night full of cow punk, nasty riffs, falling flags, and a Local H set that had a theme! Finally, KC and Dan check out Les Claypool pulling triple duty playing for Primus, The Claypool Lennon Delirium, and The Frog Brigade all in one night!

Philip Norman has written books about the Beatles – and John, Paul and George - and now turns the spotlight on the man who launched them and the extreme personal and professional obstacles in the dramatic path of his short life, the man who built a shield around them but couldn't protect himself. We talk to him here about ‘Mr Moonlight: Brian Epstein and the Making of the Beatles' with particular attention to … … how he changed Britain's image and was mortified to get no recognition for it … the Beatle whose demands he was always fastest to execute … the level of homophobia and anti-Semitism he had to absorb … his reckless pursuits in the days when homosexuality could mean life imprisonment … contract killers, blackmail, rigged roulette wheels and why the Krays said “it wasn't us” when they heard he'd died … the way he fashioned his own myth and airbrushed others who'd helped the Beatles succeed … why McCartney's 21st birthday party could have ended the band … his genius (and fraudulence) as a salesman … the double catastrophe of Brian's US merchandising deal … John, Aunt Mimi and “a story about the British class system” … and the chaperone on George and Pattie's first date.

Despite his reputation as “the safe Beatle,” Paul McCartney was a badass. He took wild artistic risks, rubbed elbows with truly dangerous characters and because of his crimes, did hard time in one of the world’s most notorious prisons. His public spats with Beatles bandmate John Lennon are the stuff of legend, as is the “Paul is dead” conspiracy at the end of their time together as a band, but the truth may be even stranger.

In the early 1970s, John Lennon was suspected of conspiring to disrupt an American political convention and contributing to a paramilitary terrorist organization. Authorities took notice. So much so that the President of the United States took action to have the so-called “smart Beatle” deported. Lennon’s politics were way more violent and revolutionary than simply imagining all the people living life in peace and harmony.

For this episode I'm joined by Spencer Leigh to discuss his memoir '80 @ 80'. Spencer was a first generation Beatles fan from Liverpool who began making programmes for BBC Radio Merseyside in the mid 70's. He amassed a huge library of interviews with Merseybeat musicians which led to his first book 'Let's Go Down to the Cavern' in 1984. Many other Beatle books followed, which include his biography of Cavern MC Bob Wooler and a look at the Pete Best sacking 'Drummed Out.' https://buymeacoffee.com/beatlesbooks?new=1

In recent years there has been lots of news about long-lost guitars that were once in the hands of a Beatle either being rediscovered or put up for sale, often going for hundreds of thousands of dollars if not in seven figures. Each one of these instruments has a story: when it was acquired, what songs was it used on, what became of it after a Beatle had moved on from it. At one point, in a Beatle's hands, each one of these guitars was a tool of discovery: they labored to uncover what sounds they could coax out of it and where they could apply those sounds to freshly-composed compositions that became recordings that we love. My guest Sam Popkin (Gear, There and Everywhere podcast) and I run down a sampling of these guitars, recently auctioned at Julien's and elsewhere, to discover what it was that attracted their owners to them in the first place and how their sounds went on to become part of the soundtrack of our lives.
