Few bands have come from as little and made as much of themselves as Oasis. Along the way they were wildly entertaining — unlike anything England or the United States had ever seen — and fully committed to the life of the rock star and to making the greatest rock ‘n' roll music the world had ever heard. Through it all they famously fought, with fans, with police and with each other. They drank excessively and did copious amounts of drugs and didn't care who knew about it. They were England's new rock ‘n' roll saviors and they were stacked with Beatlesesque hooks and Sex Pistols-inspired attitude and seemingly, always, on the verge of breaking up.

The panel missed each other and hence, here is a new episode. We each picked a Beatles topic. But Will talked forever, so this is now the first of two parts. In this episode we touch briefly on McCartney III Reimagined (our take: it's good), and then Will gets into the first half of Anthology 1, and Katie talks about the different ways in which songs can remind her of the Beatles. Panel: Will Hines, Brett Morris, Katie Plattner, Joel Spence

Part  1"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."   We take a look at the contemporary historian Heather Cox-Richardson.Martin may refer to her at Cathleen Richardson, who is hotwired in  his brain as a great Chicago area rocker.  Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Heather Cox Richardson is an expert in nineteenth-century America, specializing in politics and economics. Her most recent book, To Make Men Free, A History of the Republican Party From 1854 To The Present, was released in 2014. Sign up for her free newsletter at this link.   Part TwoPaul Schneider's full review of Everydayeveryday: For an artist, these are truly unique times. The Covid-19 pandemic, if approached the right way, provides the artist not only new inspiration, but a new way of approaching his or her craft.Such is the situation with Martin McCormack. After two and a half decades as one half of the duo Switchback, McCormack realized that, with the pandemic shutting down the entertainment industry and he and his partner Brian FitzGerald losing potentially 200 gigs in 2020, he had to do something else. So, picking up his guitar, he tried to write a song a day. The result is McCormack's first solo album, "Everydayeveryday," Fans of Switchback know that the band has a split personality - sometimes they're one of the top Celtic-American acts around, while other times a rootsy Americana group, their songs sounding like they were born from the dirt and grit of the Midwest."Everydayeveryday" takes the listener in a completely new direction. McCormack uses the wizardry of the studio - and little help from some talented friends - to produce a collection of 10 tunes of contemplation, introspection, hope and love. Safe to say that none of these songs would feel at home on a Switchback album. McCormack spreads his wings as a writer, alternating at times between the contemplative opening ballad, "Song for August,"  the hopeful pseudo title track "Everyday," a couple of kids tunes, "Fear" and "Summer," and the album's closer, "Time," a six-minute meditation on, well, the everyday.The album opens with "August," a tune about a dear relative who died far too young. Yet McCormack shows himself as the eternal optimist, trying to build everyone up around him despite the funereal atmosphere of the present, asking for hope in these most troubled times: "We welcome the dark/as the night gathers fire/Feel the warmth of a beautiful sunrise."From there, "Everyday" takes us back to when times were happier, but even then McCormack looks at the bright side: "All is not lost" he repeats at the coda. "Fear," lyrically a very grown up song about, rather than fearing fear, embracing it and using it to move forward, is nevertheless set against a happy melody that belies the subject matter. It's an interesting presentation, as is "Ill Wind," McCormack's observation of the pandemic and how it's affected his, and our, lives, driven by an unexpected upbeat arrangement.The musical good times continue on the Beatlesesque "Love to Love," all the way down to the Lennon wordplay of "I love the way you love to love me with love." It would make for a good wedding song. "Summertime" is the other kids tune on here, right down to the harmony vocals provided by - who else? - McCormack's 7-year old daughter Aine. While there are a couple of tunes that don't stand up to the rest of the album, for his first solo effort, McCormack draws upon his years of experience as a songwriter to step out of the constraints of his band and produce a strong solo debut. A bundle of restless energy, McCormack continues to write everyday and said he has enough songs for at least two more albums. Don't make us wait too long.

Shrug have been making music in Dayton since the 90’s. @theizzyrock gets the lowdown of their origin story, rig rundown, and we discuss their new album, “Easy Is The New Hard” on Magnaphone Records. Shrug return with their proverbial “White Album”…or perhaps their “Sandanista”. Easy is the New Hard isn’t decidedly Beatlesesque and though The […]

In 1989, after several years of creative struggle, Paul McCartney released Flowers in the Dirt, a critical and commercial success. From the Beatlesesque pop of "My Brave Face" to the golden-era Hollywood glamour of "Distractions," or the paternal whimsy of "Put It There," Paul is in strong writing and performing form. Also, enter Elvis Costello, his acerbic wit balancing and enhancing McCartney's creative yet cloying compositions from the 1980s. Was Elvis Paul's finest collaborator since John Lennon? Is this Paul's best album of the 1980s? Is there more buried beneath the flowers in the dirt? You'll find out all this and more in this swan ... this one.If you heard our message at the start of this episode, you can use the coupon TAKEITAWAY when you sign up to Pippa.

THE MEMORIES "End Of The World" Royal United Song Service (Burger, 2017) LP/CD/CS OUT NOW: www.burgerrecords.com The Memories are a crackerjack group of players (six eccentric, but flawed geniuses you’ll note below). Think of them as a less social supergroup, the crème de la crème of the West Coast song poets society, who create songs about mundane curiosities: Dogs, dates, anxiety, succulents, and grilled cheese. They’ve released 7 albums since forming in 2010. This is their 8th full-length album and the launch of a mysterious new service, the Royal United Song Service: A hit-making machine for real people willing to pay $100 for a private gift; a fully-customized song produced in L.A.’s slightly less major Muscle Shoals, Studio G at Gnar Tapes. “Every song was based on other people’s memories,” says Rikky Gage, the mustached captain commandeering the RUSS. “There’s a song about an OK Cupid romance. Someone’s dog. A guy named Rivers. Stuff like that.” “OK, Cupid” is a catchy love song written for someone’s husband. The two met on OkCupid after he sent her a message: “I like your style.” The lyric appears in the song: A throwback ballad about online flirtation turned Vegas nuptials. Royal United Song Service launched as a fast-music operation to raise funds for the band’s first European tour. That was in 2015, as customers of the RUSS first began to submit their memories. After nearly 50 submissions, the band carefully studied each email and used them to write lyrics to songs that would be delivered to each customer. They also raised the funds to tour. 28 of the songs have been saved for a one-of-kind double-album that pastes together parts of ‘70s AM gold, advertising jingles, Beatlesesque pop, and high in concept, low in detail ‘80s dance music equipped with heart-shaped beats. The lyrical ideas submitted by customers fattens the package of the Royal United Song Service, which will be officially released on June 30, 2017 by Burger Records, the legendary delivery service of vinyl, CD, and cassettes. More Details: The Memories feature members of White Fang, Colleen Green, Free Weed, Unkle Funkle, Totally You, Jerry Rogers & more! The current live line-up and players of RUSS include: Izak Arida, Rikky Gage, Lucas Gorham, Colleen Green, Unkle Funkle & Jerry Rogers. Royal United Song Service was recorded at Studio G, home of Gnar Tapes in Cypress Park from February 2015 to February 2017. For a limited time, the service is open for business and due to high demand now charges $250 per song. Thanks for your patronage!

This week, Ken, Steve, Allan and Al discuss Beatlesesque music and groups through the years like Badfinger. (By agreement, we didn't mention Badfinger because their inclusion was so obvious. But we mention a lot of others.) Got any you want to add? Email us at thingswesaidtodayradioshow@gmail.com. We'd love to hear yours.
