Podcasts about beatle

In this episode, Mark touts the virtues of commenting, Stephen dreads the topic, and Lydia wishes she could talk about marginalia.Code CommentThe Critical Eye Part 2This is part 2 to The Critical Eye in Episode 416"I saw a Beatle."

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

Riffs are pieces of music designed to catch your ear so you will recognise a song before any lyrics are sung. Two of the ‘catchiest' riffs are in the Rolling Stone's (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction and The Animal's House Of The Rising Sun. Prominent also are the riffs in Dire Strait's Money For Nothing and Heart's driving riff on Barracuda. Considered one of the greatest rock n roll songs of all time Chuck Berry's Johnny B Goode has a most recognisable riff. Other strong riffs can be heard on The Kink's You really Got Me and The Beatle's Day Tripper.   Playlist (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction – Rolling Stones Walk This Way – Aerosmith House Of The Rising Sun – Animals Money For Nothing – Dire Straits Johnny B Goode – Chuck Berry Pinball Wizard – The Who Eleanor Rigby – Zoot Barracuda – Heart You Really Got Me – The Kinks I Love Rock N Roll – Joan Jett Summertime – Ricky Nelson Day Tripper – The Beatles To re-live previous episodes, visit joy.org.au/yesterdayoncemore ENJOY!

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 n roll books usually follow a predictable path, but these five books go somewhere completely different. Today's show explores some of rock's most unusual reads, featuring Robyn Hitchcock, Peter Wolf, a forgotten Beatle, a CIA-recruited hair-metal drummer, and one author's deeply personal journey through the music and life of Joni Mitchell.Support the showemail Big Rick at:info@rocktalkstudio.com

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? Do you prefer post-bangers, e.g. Bangers and AfterMASH? Do you want more questions, like:

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!

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?

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.

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.

John Lennon – Der Nowhere Man John Lennon war Beatle, Friedensaktivist, Provokateur und eine der prägendsten Figuren des 20. Jahrhunderts. Doch hinter dem Mythos stand ein Mann, der sein Leben lang mit einem alten Schmerz kämpfte: dem Gefühl, nirgendwo wirklich dazuzugehören. In dieser Lebensthema-Analyse geht es nicht um die Beatles, Yoko Ono oder die großen Hits. Es geht um den Jungen, der von seiner Mutter weggegeben wurde, dessen Vater verschwand und der später Millionen von Menschen begeisterte – ohne das Loch in sich jemals ganz schließen zu können. Warum wurde ausgerechnet dieser Mann zur Stimme von Liebe, Frieden und Verbundenheit? Warum fühlte sich einer der berühmtesten Menschen der Welt oft einsamer als in seiner Kindheit? Und weshalb könnte der Song „Nowhere Man“ die treffendste Selbstbeschreibung seines ganzen Lebens gewesen sein? Anhand eines fiktiven Interviews erkunde ich das Lebensthema hinter der Legende: die Suche nach Zugehörigkeit, die Angst vor dem Verlassenwerden und den lebenslangen Versuch, sich die Liebe zu verdienen, die man als Kind vermisst hat. Drei psychologische Konzepte dieser Folge: Parentifizierung: Wenn Kinder zu früh Verantwortung für die Gefühle anderer übernehmen. Komplexe Trauer: Wenn ein Verlust nie wirklich abgeschlossen werden kann. Dissoziation als Schutz: Wie Rollen und Erfolg helfen können, sich vor altem Schmerz zu verstecken. Eine Folge über Ruhm und Einsamkeit, über Frieden und Wut – und über die Frage, die vielleicht hinter Lennons ganzem Leben stand: „Kann ich wirklich glauben, dass ich liebenswert bin?“

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. 

Ringo Starr's story is far deeper than most people realize. Before becoming one of the most famous musicians in history with The Beatles, he survived poverty, serious illness, and multiple brushes with death as a child growing up in Liverpool.This episode of Booked On Rock features an interview with author Tom Doyle, author of Ringo: A Fab Life. We explore Starr's remarkable journey from a difficult childhood through the madness of Beatlemania, his evolution as a drummer and songwriter, his solo career, personal struggles, friendships, and the lasting impact he continues to have on music and pop culture.From peace and love to perseverance and survival, this is the incredible story of the Beatle who became one of rock's most beloved figures.Purchase a copy of Ringo: A Fab LifeFollow Tom DoyleFacebookInstagramX----------

This month George Harrison would've turned 83. The “quiet Beatle” holds the record for THE most streamed Beatles song, his 1969 composition, “Here Comes The Sun,” but to the general public (and not the hardcores), he may remain in the shadow of Lennon and McCartney, despite his key contributions to songs bearing their names. Musician/podcaster Sam Popkin (Gear, There and Everywhere) joins the conversation for an examination/appreciation of what George brought to The Beatles, as well as his singular solo work. Sam also details the guitars and gear that facilitated George's evolution from a young rockabilly to a pioneer of world music and unique slide guitarist. This episode is brought to you by DistroKid and Magical Mystery Camp.

The cinematic treatment of the 2022 Mark Lewisohn lectures on the first year of The Beatles' recording career has been given a terrific cinematic treatment (see it on Amazon Prime). This episode features my conversation with the film's director, Chris Purcell, and its producer, Simon Weitzman. BOTH filmmakers have produced other Beatle-themed films, including Miss O'Dell, A Love Letter To The Beatles, The Beatles and Us, and Why Don't We Do It In The Road?, as well as other non-Beatle projects. We discuss ALL of it (and the Dementia Choir as well) in this talk. This episode is brought to you by DistroKid and Magical Mystery Camp.
