It has been quite a week, storms, pandemic, elections and war and yet the Way-Back Music Machine keeps rolling along right into episode 55.

This week look at the story behind a number one song that went on to become the number one most hated song! And it all happens in San Francisco.

Then we are off to celebrate the release of an album that will go on to set records for being on the charts longer than any other albums. And how is it connected to Paul McCartney?

And we end our trip in California. Fathers and sons fighting is nothing new, except this family happened to be very famous.

All those stories plus two From Memphis to Merseyside stories, lots of charts, a classic commercial and two friends talking music.

Join us for The Way-Back Music Machine, Episode 55.
