Send us a textTim and author/musician Adam S Leslie get lost in the fog of George Harrison's Blue Jay Way. They examine the hazy “post-Pepper, pre-White Album” moment where the band leans into guitar-less experimentation, taking in strange melodic modes, lyrical ambiguities, Leslie-speaker vocals, flanging drums, improvised cello flourishes, and hauntological backward tape fragments.Guest linksAdam S Leslie's book Lost in the Garden: https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/Lost-in-the-Garden-by-Adam-S-Leslie/9781915368485Adam on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adam.leslie2018Lost in the Garden: Music for the Book (Berlin Zebra) on Bandcamp: https://berlinhorse.bandcamp.com/album/lost-in-the-garden-music-for-the-bookFollow My Favourite Beatles SongBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/myfavebeatles.bsky.socialX (Twitter): https://twitter.com/myfavebeatlesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MyFavouriteBeatlesSongInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/myfavouritebeatlessongOriginal music by Joe KaneLogo design by Mark Cunningham

Welcome to an extraordinary edition of the Takin’ A Walk podcast from Buzz Knight music and the “Master of Music Mayhem,” Harry Jacobs. This comprehensive look at weekly music history explores one of the most emotionally complex weeks in rock and roll history, spanning December 8th through December 14th. From tragic losses to groundbreaking debuts, this week encompasses the full spectrum of music history’s most pivotal moments. John Lennon’s Assassination: December 8, 1980 - A Day That Changed Music Forever The episode opens with perhaps the darkest day in rock music history: December 8, 1980, when John Lennon was shot and killed outside The Dakota apartment building in New York City. Buzz Knight and Harry Jacobs provide intimate personal recollections of this Beatles tragedy that shocked the world. For listeners of this weekly music history episode note the Buzz Knight music podcast replay of "Takin A Walk" with the incredible Julian Lennon. The Beatles Reunion: Free as a Bird and the Anthology Era Moving from tragedy to reunion, the episode explores December 9, 1995, when the Beatles released “Free as a Bird”—the first new Beatles music in 24 years. Both hosts were working together at WZLX in Boston during this momentous release, bringing their firsthand perspective to this Beatles reunion moment. The track, built around a John Lennon demo with contributions from Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr, represented a technological and emotional achievement in music history. Harry admits his initial underwhelm with the track, noting that while “Free as a Bird” generated enormous curiosity worldwide, it never achieved the status of Beatles classics like “Ticket to Ride,” “Help!,” or songs from Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. The honest assessment reflects how even beloved artists can struggle to recapture past magic, and both hosts acknowledge they haven’t revisited the song since its release. This candid discussion provides valuable context for understanding fan expectations versus artistic reality in music reunion projects. The Blues Brothers Phenomenon: From Saturday Night Live to Cultural Institution December 9, 1978 marks the Saturday Night Live debut of the Blues Brothers, a moment that transformed comedy sketch into legitimate musical force. The episode provides deep insights into how Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi created this blues and R&B supergroup, enlisting Paul Shaffer, Lou Marini, Duck Dunn, and Steve Cropper, who just passed away—the latter two being legendary members of Booker T. and the MGs and key figures in the Stax Records sound that defined Memphis soul music and produced classics like “Soul Man” and “Green Onions.” Howard Shore, who served as Saturday Night Live’s musical director, recognized the potential in Aykroyd and Belushi’s blues performances and helped facilitate their transition from comedy bit to recording artists. The hosts discuss how this comedy-music crossover assembled world-class musicians around a satirical concept that became genuinely respected in the music community. The Blues Brothers represented a unique fusion of comedy and music that introduced younger audiences to blues legends and R&B classics. The conversation explores Tom “Bones” Malone, a guest on Buzz’s podcast, who joined the Blues Brothers band and played trombone with Blood, Sweat & Tears before becoming part of the SNL band. The episode details the evolution of the band from initial concept to full touring and recording entity, with Buzz noting the impressive live performances featuring the Blues Brothers’ acrobatic stage show, where the larger-than-life Belushi performed cartwheels, splits, and handstands that would later inspire Chris Farley’s physical comedy style. The Blues Brothers soundtrack, featuring “Briefcase Full of Blues” and subsequent albums, has “stood the test of time” according to both hosts. Songs like “Rubber Biscuit,” performed with Matt “Guitar” Murphy, and the memorable Aretha Franklin diner scene where Jake orders “four fried chickens and a Coke,” remain embedded in popular culture. The authentic musicianship combined with comedic brilliance created something that transcended both genres, making the Blues Brothers a permanent fixture in American music history. Otis Redding’s Legacy and Tragic Death: December 10, 1967 The episode takes a somber turn with December 10, 1967, the day Otis Redding died in a plane crash near Madison, Wisconsin, along with members of the Bar-Kays. The timing of this tragedy magnifies its impact—Redding had recorded ”(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” just three days earlier, and the song hadn’t yet been released. The track became a posthumous number-one hit, cementing Redding’s status as one of soul music’s greatest artists, though he never lived to see its success. Wings Over America: McCartney’s Epic Live Album - December 10, 1976 December 10, 1976 brought the release of Wings Over America, Paul McCartney’s triple live album documenting his 1975-1976 tour with Wings. The episode explores the rarity of triple albums in music history, particularly live albums of such scope and ambition. The hosts discuss the bootleg album called “Wings from Wings” that allegedly forced McCartney’s hand, rushing the official release to market before bootleggers could dominate sales. Harry reveals the meticulous production process behind Wings Over America, noting that McCartney collected 8,000 hours of live recordings from the tour. The legendary Beatles bassist and singer then personally mixed the album, listening to five different versions of every song before selecting the best performances. The final album was crafted to sound like a single concert experience, though it actually represented the best moments culled from the entire tour—a production approach that set standards for live albums. The episode highlights how “Maybe I’m Amazed” from this album became the definitive version for many fans, surpassing even the studio recording in emotional power and musical execution. The album also featured several Beatles songs including “Yesterday” and “Bluebird,” allowing McCartney to honor his past while showcasing his post-Beatles work with Wings. This balance between Beatles nostalgia and new material demonstrated McCartney’s artistic evolution while satisfying longtime fans. Early Genesis and Progressive Rock Evolution December 11, 1972 saw Genesis release “Foxtrot,” their fifth studio album and a landmark in progressive rock history. The episode explores this Peter Gabriel-era Genesis and the band’s evolution through various lineups. Harry recalls “Watcher of the Skies” as a standout track, while both hosts discuss later Genesis classics like “The Carpet Crawlers” from “The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway.” The conversation reveals differing perspectives on Genesis eras, with Buzz preferring the Peter Gabriel period and later Phil Collins-fronted work, while Harry admits his fandom developed more during the “Trick of the Tail” era following Gabriel’s departure. This honest exchange reflects how progressive rock bands often created distinct identities across lineup changes, appealing to different audiences in different eras. Buzz shares a memorable concert experience seeing Genesis with double drumming featuring Phil Collins and Bill Bruford (renowned for his work with Yes and King Crimson). This unique configuration represented Genesis at a transitional moment, experimenting with expanded instrumentation before settling into the trio format that would define their later commercial success. The “Trick of the Tail” tour demonstrated the band’s ability to continue without their iconic frontman, eventually leading to Collins taking over lead vocals permanently. The episode takes an unexpected turn to December 12, 1901, when Guglielmo Marconi sent the first transatlantic radio signal from Cornwall to Newfoundland. This moment in broadcasting history laid the foundation for everything that followed, including the careers of Buzz and Harry as radio professionals. Harry jokes about Buzz working for Marconi in 1901, highlighting the self-deprecating humor that characterizes their chemistry while acknowledging that without Marconi’s invention, they would never have met or built careers in radio. This historical perspective reminds listeners that music distribution, radio broadcasting, and the entire infrastructure of modern music industry traces back to pioneering moments like Marconi’s transmission. The evolution of radio technology from those first signals to contemporary podcast production represents over a century of innovation that transformed how humans experience and share music globally. The Clash’s London Calling: Punk’s Masterpiece - December 14, 1979 December 14, 1979 saw the Clash release “London Calling” in the UK, a double album that transcended punk rock limitations to incorporate reggae, rockabilly, ska, and R&B influences. The hosts recall the album’s innovative approach, including the hidden track “Train in Vain,” which became a hit despite not being listed on the original album cover—a marketing trick that created mystique and rewarded attentive listeners.

In this episode of VRP Rocks, Paul is joined by legendary drummer Steve Ferrone — the rhythm powerhouse behind some of the most iconic names in music. From playing with Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers for over two decades, to sessions and tours with Eric Clapton, Christine McVie, George Harrison, Michael Jackson, Duran Duran, Chaka Khan, and many others — Steve's career reads like a hall of fame roll call. The conversation kicks off with Steve's behind the scenes memories of that unforgettable Rock and Roll Hall of Fame performance with Prince, where “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” became a viral moment thanks to Prince's incredible guitar solo — and yes, Steve was right there on stage, holding it all together. From there, he shares incredible stories about his time with Tom Petty, what it was like to work with Michael Jackson, his unexpected recruitment into Duran Duran, and why recording with Fleetwood Mac's Christine McVie still holds such a special place in his heart. A warm, funny, and humble storyteller, Steve Ferrone delivers an inside look at some of the most legendary moments in rock and pop history.

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?

25 février 1964, George Harrison fête ses 21 ans. Le plus jeune de la bande des quatre a bien du mal à le croire quand on lui montre les 30.000 cartes postales et lettres reçues pour son anniversaire. Il a ensuite droit à une conférence de presse, les journalistes veulent tout savoir sur la fête de ce soir. Entre parenthèses, Georges recevra une montre de Brian Epstein le manager des Beatles qui depuis trois ans se coupe en quatre pour eux. Trois ans. Il s'en est passé des choses depuis cet automne 1961, c'était d'ailleurs à ce moment que John avait fêté ses 21 ans. Il avait reçu en cadeau de Paul, un hamburger et un coca, c'était alors tout ce qu'ils pouvaient s'offrir.Oui, début 1964, les Beatles sont les gars les plus sollicités au monde. Comme ils disent, il y a dans une journée de quoi remplir l'agenda d'une semaine. On est passé du « personne ne veut de nous » à « tout le monde nous veut et tout de suite, maintenant ». Quelques jours après l'anniversaire de Georges, ils commencent le tournage de leur premier film en tant qu'acteurs, comme Elvis, une comédie loufoque, à l'humour limite Monty Python, dont ils vont composer et enregistrer les treize titres en neuf jours. Et donc, à un tel rythme, apparaît très vite la nécessité de prendre des vacances avant ce qui doit être leur première tournée mondiale. Mais où ? Impossible d'aller quelque part sans se faire accoster quand ce n'est pas carrément se faire sauter dessus par une horde de jeunes filles hurlantes. McCartney en est déjà à porter un chapeau, des fausses lunettes et une barbe postiche.Si on allait dans les îles, au soleil ?La bonne idée. Mais prudence. A la moindre fuite, la presse quotidienne mondiale va sortir ça, en feuilleton. On prend donc des billets d'avion avec deux destinations différentes pour éviter les rapprochements : Paul McCartney et Ringo Starr vont aux îles Vierges, dans les Antilles, avec leur compagne, tandis que George Harrison et John Lennon vont en Polynésie française sur un atoll perdu au milieu du Pacifique. Ca fait une paire d'avions à prendre, alors on se choisit des pseudos pour les réservations, à l'époque, c'était possible, mais non sans humour, Beatles oblige, ce qui nous vaut des Mrs Bond ou Mr Stone. Sauf que quand un douanier dit en regardant Mr Stone, alias Paul McCartney, mais ce n'est pas vous, ça, en montrant la photo, c'est l'incident. Ils ont mélangé leurs passeports. C'est vrai, dit Ringo, ils se ressemblent tous, ces carnets. Mais bon, après quelques péripéties, tout le monde arrive à bon port, c'est le cas de le dire, ils ont chacun leur bateau pour profiter de la mer. Et c'est vrai que les photos dans les îles de John et George avec Cynthia et Pattie, blondes emblématiques des golden sixties, sont merveilleuses. Le premier matin quand George Harrison, qui a vécu les vingt premières années de sa vie dans une minuscule maison de corons, se retrouve en se levant dans le décor idyllique d'un lagon avec son eau transparente et ses cocotiers, il est émerveillé. Quant à John Lennon, ben, il n'en a rien à faire de rester allongé comme une crêpe sur la plage. Il a entrepris d'écrire un livre, il vient d'ailleurs de publier son premier. C'est vrai, dit-il, on va rentrer noirs comme des myrtilles et le lendemain, ça sera déjà parti, alors à quoi ça sert ? En plus, on sera pas reposés mais morts de fatigue avant de partir en tournée. Je m'en fous du soleil. Mais pas George, sans doute la raison pour laquelle sa chanson est, de loin, la plus écoutée des Beatles sur internet.

In this week's mixtape rewind, we go back a couple of years to when Matt and Sam did a deep dive into music supergroups.Imagine loading a playlist where legends keep walking through the door. That's the ride we built as we dive into supergroups that actually deliver, from the crunch of Audioslave and the finesse of Cream to the indie cohesion of Boygenius and the pure joy of the Traveling Wilburys. We chase the central mystery behind these collaborations: when distinct sounds collide, what holds, what changes, and why does it matter?We start with the gravitational pull of great voices. Chris Cornell gives Audioslave immediate identity while Tom Morello adds that unmistakable edge, and Maynard James Keenan turns A Perfect Circle into a masterclass in mood without copying Tool. Then we test chemistry in the engine room: Chickenfoot fires up old-school rock craftsmanship, and Them Crooked Vultures stretch grooves into cinematic builds powered by Dave Grohl, Josh Homme, and John Paul Jones. For a genre swerve, Mount Westmore brings bass and swagger with Snoop, Too Short, E-40, and Ice Cube trading bars like it's a victory lap.Contrast keeps the mix alive. Wild Flag threads surfy drums with indie bite, and Boygenius shows how three solo voices can trade lead without crowding the song. Prophets of Rage fuse protest and power, pulling rap and rock tight around a sharp social focus, while The Highwaymen remind us that sometimes the most classic move—four giants trading verses—still lands hardest. And to cap it all, the Traveling Wilburys prove that when Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison, and Tom Petty decide to have fun, the hooks practically write themselves.Be Yourself by AudioslaveBig Subwoofer by MOUNT WESTMOREWhite Room by CreamDown the Drain by ChickenfootElephants by Them Crooked VulturesRomance by WILD FLAGPassive by A Perfect CircleBruised by The BensLiving on the 110 by Prophets of RageHighwayman by HighwaymanSatanist by boygeniusWilbury Twist by The Traveling Wilburys Support the showVisit us at https://www.superawesomemix.com to learn more about our app, our merchandise, our cards, and more!

It only took 29 years, but we Beatles fans finally have what we've all been clamoring for: instrumental “Fool On The Hill.” That's right, Anthology 4 has arrived! Are you excited? We fans love sequels! Maybe it's an appetizer to George Harrison's “Early Takes Volume 2”, which is tentatively scheduled to be released sometime after we're all dead. Fortunately, for those of us who remember the excitement for the original Anthology CD's, the good folks at Apple have finally cleaned up the tracks from volumes 1-3. This week, Tony & T.J. instant-react to those reissues (and/or maybe remixes), in addition to previewing their full-on deep dish of Anthology 4. Along the way, the boys ask:

I hear Jeff Lynne has recently been sidelined by a mysterious infection, and had to cancel some performances. We wish the revered music producer and founder of ELO good health and a quick recovery. Today, Bill and Rich, The Splendid Bohemians would like to celebrate this versatile Rock stylist by playing two cuts separated by decades, from two vastly different incarnations, but somehow identifiable as his, if only by the unique sensibility in which these cuts are marinated: Imposters of Life's Magazine by The Idle Race, and Tweeter and the Monkey Man by The Traveling Wilburys.There are certain tropes that signify this creator's hand: catchy musical themes, thick layers of horns and strings and witty Beatle-esque harmonies - (he even got to work with the resurrected voice of John Lennon when producing the Beatle's ghostly “reunion”tracks Free As a Bird, and Real Love. Like so many of his generation, Jeff came up under the spell of the mop tops, and even this early recording by the Idle Race has that 1967 Psychedelic flavor, pre-dating by a year, but somehow reminiscent of his future Willburys bandmate, George Harrison's song Savoy Truffle. IMPOSTERS OF LIFE'S MAGAZINEThe personnel changes of the several Birmingham beat groups in the mid-sixties are too numerous to recite here, but one group, The Nightriders are notable because they took on a teenaged Lynne as guitarist in '66 - and changed their name to The Idle Race (a more timely handle). Roy Wood of the Move, Jeff's friend and future partner in the formation of ELO, helped the IR get signed, and influential DJ John Peel was an early and strong promoter of the group. Jeff's tenure with IR was short lived however, and in 1970 he founded (with Wood) the legendary Electric Light Orchestra.This early composition has all the hallmarks that would later define Jeff's work: witty, yet Romantic lyrics; hard driving rhythms, but with plenty of surprisingly lush filigree. The ambition of the work, with its startlingly different movements, is impressive for such a young talent - but, at the core is Jeff's unmistakable ear for the “hook” - marking him as one of the most reliable masters of Pop.TWEETER AND THE MONKEY MANTweeter and the Monkey Man, from 22 years later - demonstrates how far the musician had come professionally.  Here Jeff is, arguably the lowest man on the totem pole of The Traveling Wilburys, a Super Group's Super Group (with a Beatle, George Harrison, future Nobel Laureate Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, and Roy - fucking - Orbison…., yet his mark is unmistakeable. This tune, supposedly written by Bob Dylan, who spittingly delivers it like a parody of Springsteen's New Jersey, drenched in a Sopranos sauce - and it's just plain fun. But, the chorus, penned by Jeff with George Harrison, lifts the track to the existential level of a rock opera, giving it “the hook,” the drama and the flair. The layers on this musical cake are delicious - there's George's sly slide work; the Lady Madonna horns, the timpani booms counterpointed by a tinkling piano riff; the building of the strings and horns and oohing and aaahing harmonies… they suck me in every time. Good stuff!

Following the Beatles' final concert tour, George Harrison travelled to India in 1967 to learn sitar under the renowned musician Ravi Shankar. Fleeing Beatlemania he travelled in disguise to Mumbai and then to Srinagar in Kashmir. Listening to BBC archive and using excerpts from a Martin Scorsese documentary, we hear one of the world's most famous guitarists challenge himself to learn a new instrument. The moment influenced George's spirituality and his burgeoning solo musical career, as well as the Beatles'. It also propelled Ravi Shankar further into the limelight. The musicians remained lifelong friends. Ravi says they last saw each other on 28 November 2001, the day before George died. Produced and presented by Surya Elango.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive. Witness History is for those fascinated by the past.

Wires dangled from under the dash leaving only silence and an emptiness of spiritIt was a time of meaningful conversations. George rode with me every day offering words of encouragement.David Lusk is a retired consulting arborist/psychologist/writer living in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. He has previously written several articles for the Winston-Salem Journal and the trade publication, Tree Care Industry Magazine.
