In this live conversation at Shakespeare & Company in Paris, Adam Biles speaks with writer Ian Leslie about John & Paul: A Love Story in Songs, Leslie's acclaimed exploration of the creative and emotional bond at the heart of The Beatles. Together they trace John Lennon and Paul McCartney's relationship from their first meeting as bereaved teenagers in Liverpool, through the crucible of Hamburg, the frenzy of Beatlemania, and the artistic revolutions of the 1960s. Leslie explains why their partnership was neither simple friendship nor sibling rivalry, but a passionate, volatile, and profoundly collaborative romance—one that shaped their music as much as their music shaped them. They discuss myth-making around the band's breakup, why McCartney's reputation took decades to recover, and how John and Paul remained “entangled particles” long after going their separate ways.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2020 conversation with Elvis Costello. ABOUT ELVIS COSTELLOReleased between 1977 and 1979, Elvis Costello's first three albums—My Aim is True, This Year's Model, and Armed Forces—were all included in Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. That early period of his recording career yielded now-classic singles such as “Alison,” “Watching the Detectives,” “Pump it Up,” “Radio Radio,” “Oliver's Army,” “Accidents Will Happen,” and others.Though he established his career as a rock artist and reached commercial heights in the US with the pop hit “Everyday I Write the Book,” Costello's more than thirty studio albums cover a breathtaking range of stylistic ground, from Almost Blue, his early 1980s album of country covers, to The Juliet Letters, his 1993 collaboration with The Brodsky Quartet, to North, an album of ballads partially inspired by his wife Diana Krall that topped Billboard's Jazz chart in 2003, to Il Sogno, his first full-length orchestral work, which was performed by the London Symphony Orchestra, and topped Billboard's classical chart in 2004, to Wise Up Ghost, a 2013 collaboration with Questlove and The Roots. In between, he's continued to release albums both solo and with his bands The Attractions, The Imposters, and The Sugarcanes. Always an adventurous collaborator, Costello entered into a fruitful songwriting partnership with Paul McCartney that yielded more than a dozen songs, including Costello's Top 10 single “Veronica” and McCartney's “My Brave Face.” He went on to release entire collaborative albums with Richard Harvey, Burt Bacharach, Allen Toussaint, and others. He has written lyrics for compositions by Charles Mingus, Billy Strayhorn and Oscar Peterson, as well as musical settings for lyrics by Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan. His songs have been covered by a range of artists including George Jones, Chet Baker, Dusty Springfield, and Solomon Burke. Costello has been nominated for fourteen Grammy awards, two of which he won, as well as an Academy Award for co-writing “The Scarlet Tide” with T-Bone Burnett for the film Cold Mountain. He has received two Ivor Novello awards for Songwriting, the Americana Music Association's Lifetime Achievement in Songwriting award, and the ASCAP Founder's Award, which was presented by Burt Bacharach. He was inducted into both the Songwriters Hall of Fame and the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, and was named one of the 100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time by Rolling Stone magazine. His genre-stretching new album, Hey Clockface, was recorded in Helsinki and Paris, and was released on October 30.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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.

A smiling John Lennon on Monday Night Football. A blunt 1970 interview that cut through the post‑Beatles haze. A late‑night Bermuda epiphany triggered by the B‑52s. We stitch together these scenes to tell a clear story of return, risk, and the ache of what never happened.We revisit Lennon's sharp takes on early solo albums, then jump to Howard Cosell's halftime chat where “It's always in the wind” floated a reunion hope. From there we follow the thread to Double Fantasy: phone‑call songwriting with Yoko, the decision to interleave their tracks, and the electric but shelved Cheap Trick‑backed version of I'm Losing You. The music reveals a man choosing domestic honesty over spectacle, and that choice rings loud on Watching The Wheels and Beautiful Boy. We also sit with the shock of December 8, 1980—how news broke live on TV, how radio turned into a vigil, and how listeners discovered deep cuts and new meanings in the days that followed.The legacy keeps evolving. Anthology 1 brought Free As A Bird to life from a worn cassette, reminding us that imperfections can feel truer than polish. New restoration tools now separate voices from tape hiss, reframing classics without erasing their warmth, and sparking debate around releases like Now And Then. We dig into early Beatles gems, Pete Best's late payday, and why Rubber Soul still feels like the band's great hinge moment. Seasonal staples make an appearance too—Lennon's reflective Happy Xmas and McCartney's gloriously divisive Wonderful Christmastime—because these songs hold our calendars as much as our hearts.Come for the stories, stay for the connective tissue: how culture, technology, and memory keep Lennon present.

The third part of Tony's chat with The Beatles biographer Ian Leslie, exploring the emotional and creative partnership between John Lennon and Paul McCartney. They discuss how Lennon's 1966 “more popular than Jesus” remark shook him, how the Beatles abandoned touring for studio experimentation, and how Yoko Ono and Linda Eastman became catalysts for John and Paul pulling apart. Business conflicts, especially over management, deepened divisions even as the band continued producing remarkable work, culminating in Abbey Road. Despite a turbulent breakup, Lennon and McCartney slowly rebuilt a loose friendship before Lennon's death, and the Beatles' artistic legacy continues to shape modern music.Hosted by Sir Tony Robinson | Instagram @sirtonyrobinsonProducer: Melissa FitzGerald | X @melissafitzgWithIan Leslie | www.ian-leslie.comIan Leslie is the author of acclaimed and bestselling books on human psychology and creativity which have been translated into over a dozen languages.

On ne racontera jamais assez comment l'incroyable aventure des Beatles a failli cent fois prendre fin avant de trouver la voie du succès. Ainsi quand ces gamins rentrent quasiment les uns après les autres de leur première et longue série d'engagements à Hambourg. George Harrison qui n'était pas encore majeur a en effet été expulsé du territoire suite à une dénonciation aux autorités par le patron d'un bar avec qui ils s'étaient brouillés. Pete Best et Paul McCartney avaient été arrêtés peu de temps après, eux aussi, ils jouaient sans permis de travail, John Lennon et Stuart Sutcliffe, eux, étaient rentrés à Liverpool les derniers. C'est la débâcle. Paul voit les semaines passer sans nouvelles des autres. Personne ne semble appeler personne. C'est fini.Ne reste pas comme ça. Trouve-toi un job, dit le père McCartney. Alors Paul trouve un. Les jours passent, l'hiver est bien avancé quand John et George arrivent chez Massey and Coggins, trouvant Paul en train de balayer la cour.Tu viens ? On a trouvé un engagement au Cavern ? Le Cavern est alors un club de jazz ouvert quelques années plus tôt dans les sous-sols d'un entrepôt, près des quais. Les jeunes s'y rendent pour écouter des groupes jouer en soirée et sur le temps de midi, on y sert du café et de la soupe, l'endroit est glauque mais c'est mieux que rien. D'ailleurs la vie pour les jeunes à cette époque, c'est rien.J'peux pas, répond Paul, j'ai un job fixe maintenant. Je gagne 7 livres et 10 shillings par semaine, ils m'apprennent un boulot, j'peux pas rêver mieux.John et George traînent Paul jusqu'au Cavern. Tu devrais arrêter de faire tout ce que dit ton père, lui dit John, dis-lui d'aller se faire foutre. Il ne va pas te tuer, il est trop vieux pour ça.Paul sent la vibration du public, ce soir au Cavern Club. Et après avoir dormi dessus, il ne met plus un pied chez Massey and Coggins. Tant pis pour ce que son père va dire. Le Cavern Club a annoncé sur les affiches une représentation unique des Beatles avec, en sous-titre, « directement débarqué de Hambourg ». Mais vous parlez drôlement bien Anglais, leur disent des filles après leur prestation. Tu te rends compte Paul, elles nous prennent pour des Allemands, rit John Lennon. Oui, ce soir du 9 février 1961, les Beatles, que les trois quarts de la salle pensent être des Allemands, rencontrent leur premier vrai succès. Eux qui jusque-là, étaient le groupe de bal ou du bar, sont cette fois écoutés comme de vrais artistes, avec un public qui vient les voir après pour les féliciter. Et croyez-moi, ça fait du bien quand on sort de scène. Et oui, ils réalisent qu'ils ont changé en jouant six heures par soir durant trois mois sans interruption à Hambourg. Ils sont passés du bon groupe, comme les autres, à des gars qui font ce que personne ne fait. Hé les Beatles, bravo, hein, votre rock'n'roll, c'est autre chose que la bouillie de Cliff Richard, dit un Teddy Boy. Quant à leur nationalité allemande, il va falloir deux bonnes années pour que cette légende disparaisse, il faut dire que les Beatles vont encore retourner jouer plus de deux cents soirs à Hambourg. Et à chaque retour à Liverpool, le public sort du Cavern Club en se disant que non, décidément, personne ne met l'ambiance comme les Beatles.

"This is our annual Thanksgiving show. Thanksgiving is celebrated in many counties other than the United States. We will tell you the list and and how the people celebrate. Plus play songs about Thanksgiving food."

Today's show is a follow up on yesterday's where we heard the story of a McCartney concertgoer who was sat near someone with a support dog, and that went exactly as you'd expect given the circumstances. Are you tired of seeing dogs in public spaces they shouldn't be at?

On the way back from a family road trip to see Paul McCartney, we make a pit stop to interview "Ozzy & Me" author, Stephen Rea. We talk about his heartwarming memoir detailing four decades of friendship with Ozzy Osbourne. Then my son and I try to recap his first rock concert.

"Video may have killed the radio star but streaming and individual choices in music killed the video. Paramount Global has begun shutting down Mtv channels in Europe and reports are that soon it will come to the United States. Mtv is 44 and it looks like it may not make it to 45. "

Legendary Chicago singer/songwriter Steve Goodman once sang of riding the rails on a train known as the City Of New Orleans. We have no idea how Chicago-based UBP listener, friend, and journalist/author Mark Guarino (Country & Midwestern, Chicago Sun Times, ABC-TV) got to the world's greatest arena, the Smoothie King Center, to see Sir Paul rock NOLA. But, if Mark is a real Chicago guy, he's probably still been there since the Bears won Super Bowl XX in January of 1986; unarguably the single greatest day in American history unless you hate excellence and joy. #PaytonIsTheGoat But all that matters is that Mark did manage to see Macca in one of America's most incredible cities, and he generously reported back on the show and the scene for the rest of us. At an extremely exorbitant fee, I might add. $12,000 for an audio field piece? In this economy, Mark??? Tony & T.J. will give their highly anticipated (editor's note: by whom?) recap after they see McCartney in Chicago over Thanksgiving week, you turkeys; but in the meantime we're excited to share another in our continuing series of the UBP Hive seeing Sir Paul live in 2025. We also ask the tough questions that only OAN has the balls to ask, because they're also insane, just not in a healthy and fun way:

On this episode of Clean and Sober Radio, host Gary Hendler and cohost Mark Sigmund welcomed 1960s British pop star Billy J. Kramer — true rock 'n' roll royalty from the British Invasion era. As the lead singer of The Dakotas, Billy recorded numerous Lennon and McCartney–penned hits, including “Do You Want to Know a Secret,” “I'll Be on My Way,” “I Call Your Name,” “Bad to Me,” and “Little Children.” Once at the height of fame and later facing life's challenges away from the spotlight, Billy shared his inspiring story of long-term recovery and resilience. The conversation offered a rare and intimate look behind the scenes of one of music's most iconic eras — from a man who lived it.

Tommy starts by telling the other Blottos about the secret side project he's been working on.  From there we do some great Foley work before bringing back fan favorite Sam Whiles to discuss our feelings on the revisited Beatles Anthology, Sam's personal project of making a McCartney-only Beatles Anthology, the story of a friend who encountered Mark David Chapman, our new show pitch "Mark David Chat, Man," seasonal Beatles, Ringo's art show, Ringo's charity to support charitable organizations, and the timpani-heavy "Every Little Thing."As always, you can find Team Blotto Beatles on Instagram (@blottobeatles) and Twitter / X (@blottobeatles), by emailing us (blottobeatles@gmail.com), or on the web (blottobeatles.com).  We want to hear from you!Please also take the time to rate and review us on Apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.We have a shop!  Grab some merch.  You can always drunk dial us at 1.857.233.9793 to share your thoughts, feedback, confessions, and concerns to be featured in an upcoming episode.

Salomão Borges Filho, más conocido como Lô Borges, se fue este domingo 2 de noviembre. Tenía solo 20 años en 1972 cuando firmó con Milton Nascimento 'Clube da esquina', un disco fundamental en la historia de la música brasileña. Suyas son canciones del disco como 'Tudo que você podia ser', 'O trem azul', 'Um girassol da cor do seu cabelo', 'Estrelas', 'Clube da esquina nº2', 'Paisagem da janela', 'Trem de doido' o 'Nuvem cigana'. Le escuchamos en canciones de su primer disco en solitario publicado también en 1972 y que, al no tener título, quedó como el disco de las zapatillas de tenis: 'Canção postal', 'O caçador', 'Faça seu jogo', 'Como o Machado' y 'Eu sou como você é'. Y en las canciones 'Sonhor real', 'Nenhum mistério' y 'Fios d´água' de su disco de 1984 'Sonho real'. Con Milton, en concierto en Río de Janeiro, noviembre de 2012, cantando su 'Para Lennon e McCartney'.Escuchar audio

“Eu sou da América do Sul, eu sei vocês não vão saber”, assim anunciavam dois dos versos mais impactantes da música “Para Lennon e McCartney”, cantada na voz inigualável de Milton Nascimento. Esta semana Bruno Bocayuva, Julio Adler e João Valente celebram a vida e obra de Lô Borges, um dos grandes obreiros do edifício artístico que se ergue na mais criativa esquina da música brasileira. Os versos citados evocam tanto a influência dos Quatro Fabulosos de Liverpool na obra de Milton, Lô e companhia, como o descaso absoluto da WSL com as duas etapas chilenas do qualifying regional sul-americano e, por extensão, perante a totalidade do primeiro patamar da carreira de um competidor profissional.Tem Imagem Falada, tudo ensanduichado por Buffalo Tom esquentando “Summer”, Lô Borges colhendo “Um Girassol da Cor do Seu Cabelo” e, pra fechar, nove minutos de viagem na “Rie's Wagon” com o Gomez.

"The number changes, but as of the writing of this description, only 1883 songs have topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart including all its earlier versions. This week back in 1990, the first rap song topped the chart. That got me wondering how many other firsts and other interesting facts surround the top spot. Here is a list."

The McGuigan Brothers dive into Help! - the album that changed everything. From Lennon's first honest breakdown to McCartney's melodic precision and George's guitar pedal revolution, this is The Beatles caught between pop idols and pioneers.Ringo delivers a signature vocal performance, George Martin keeps it genius, and the studio chaos somehow turns into timeless perfection. In the category round, the brothers rank the Best Beatle Moments, Best Groove, and Most 1965 Thing About this Album - with plenty of laughs, deep cuts, and “Didja See Where?” surprises. Beatlemania, burnout, and brilliance all in one record. Drop the needle and Help! yourself to the sound of evolution.

Ayer, 26 de octubre, cumplió años Milton Nascimento. Lo celebramos escuchando todas las canciones de 'Minas' el disco que publicó hace 50 años: 'Minas', 'Fe cega faca amolada', 'Beijo partido', 'Saudade dos avioes da Panair', 'Gran circo', 'Ponta de areia', 'Trastevere', 'Idolatrada', 'Leila (Venha ser feliz)', 'Paula e Bebeto' y 'Simples'. Y el bonus track de la edición remasterizada del disco en los estudios Abbey Road de Londres en 1995: 'Norwegian wood' de Lennon y McCartney. Para despedir, una grabación de 'Vera Cruz' con Milton acompañado por Herbie Hancock, Pat Metheny, Ron Carter y Jack DeJohnette.Escuchar audio
