A History of Rock n' Roll in Film and Rock n' Roll

"Back Beat" (1994)| also "Yesterday" (2019)| Beatles in Hamburg


Listen Later

Don Was records members of Nirvana, Sonic Youth, REM, Soul Asylum, Afghan Wigs, and Gumball as they record (in only 2 DAYS with no rehearsal beforehand) covers of covers that the Beatles covered in their Reeperbahn and Grosse Freiheit days when they had to sleep next to the women's toilets and get woken up by the sound of old ladies pissing every morning. Small wonder they made short work of American journalists trying to talk smack to them when they came to the USA years later. Oh and it's all portrayed by Professor Quirrel, the bad guy from the first Blade movie, and Laura Palmer. Also, that newer romantic film, Yesterday.
