This installment centres on the years 1976 to 1981. While not a prolific period of trading barbs between the two but there are some nice quotes from the pair during this interval. We discuss among other topics, the 1978 Rutles Film All You Need Is Cash  and Paul's response to it, Ringo's wedding and working together in 1981 for 'All Those Years Ago'. Eoghan also recently interviewed Genesis Guitarist Steve Hackett. (Link Below) We definitely have enough "legs" for a part 3 as we progress through the 1980s.

Riding a serious creative hot streak in 1967, Paul was inspired by the "mystery tour" trips of his younger years, a bus trip to an unknown destination, and developed an idea for a film version of that, starring the Beatles. Of course, being the psychedelic year of 1967, it'd be magical, a Magical Mystery Tour. In needing a theme song or fanfare for the project, not dissimilar to what the band needed for the Sgt. Pepper album a few months prior, the band put together a bombastic track, with rocking drums, blasting horns, and multiple tempo changes. It's great to hear the band ROCK in 1967, and the horns are just piercing and powerful. The sped up vocals add to the trippiness of the affair, and it has a wonderful fade off into the mysterious unknown. It's does a great job as a theme song for MMT, both the film, and album (or EP), but as far as "a song" it doesn't necessarily carry much weight. But as always, it's fun, it's catchy, and it's exciting...it's the Beatles, after all isn't it? Joining us this week is Sean Gaillard, author of "The Pepper Effect: Tap into the Magic of Creativity, Collaboration, and Innovation" as a look at the intersection of the Beatles and education. Sean's also the host of "The Principal Liner Notes Podcast," and has contributed articles to PBS and Culture Sonar. AND he's a big Monkees fan, so you know we're gonna get along smashingly. We talk about exactly what IS "the Pepper effect," having confidence in your ability to explore and be creative, being willing to fail, Beatle rituals, and Julia's desire to never go on a trip without a destination.

In celebration of the remastered release of The Beatles' album commonly known as "The White Album," we asked Scott to deconstruct four tracks from the famed album. Tune in to a mind-blowing episode! Scott is an internationally recognized expert and lecturer on the music of the Beatles and creator of Deconstructing the Beatles, a series of multimedia presentations about the composition and production techniques of the Beatles. He has presented his lectures to sold-out audiences at theaters nationwide and has spoken about the Beatles at colleges, universities, and corporations, such as Pixar, Google, and Facebook.  Mr. Freiman’s insights into the music of the Beatles can be found in the book All the Songs: The Story Behind Every Beatles Release published in October 2013 by Black Dog and Leventhal.  Mr. Freiman also writes about music and "deconstructs" songs and bands for Culture Sonar (culture sonar.com).

Breaking It Down (with Jeff and John)

For most of us, the music we loved as teenagers is the music that molded us. When we hear it, something just clicks in the deepest recesses of our being. But do our youthful favorites stand up to adult scrutiny? In this episode of “Breaking It Down,” Jeff and John muse on the topic of listening to “yesterday’s favorites with today’s ears” — and re-examine four of their own teen touchstones. Do those records hold up? Do yours? Dive in and consider the question...

Breaking It Down (with Jeff and John)

To paraphrase the mighty Rodney Dangerfield, some bands get no respect. Despite decades of top-notch musical output, their work is often overlooked by the general public, and embraced instead by a select group dedicated of enthusiasts. In this episode, Jeff and John dig into their personal favorite artists and bands which they feel are unjustly under-appreciated. You may agree. You may not. In any case, let us know at BreakingItDown@culturesonar.com.

Breaking It Down (with Jeff and John)

Is it a riff? A hook? An arrangement? Whatever they are, those little earworms make a hit a hit. The songs just wouldn’t be the same without them. In this episode, Jeff and John grab their instruments to volley riffs back and forth — and muse on what makes them so special. It’s a geekish tour-de-force, covering rock, pop, funk, jazz, standards and even classical. All that’s currently missing is hearing about your own favorite riffs. Email us at BreakingItDown@culturesonar.com. Let’s make this a conversation!

James Jamerson changed the way hit records sound. His jazz-inflected, endlessly inventive bass playing added a whole new level of sophistication to pop records. Plus, he brought the serious funk. In this premiere episode of "Breaking It Down," pro musicians John Montagna and Jeff Ganz (both bass players, not incidentally) get deep inside the style, technique and approach of a man whose influence is as strong today as ever.
