Best-selling and award-winning authors Robert Rodriguez and Jerry Hammack are on the podcast to talk about Ribbons Of Rust: The Beatles' Recording History In Context: Volume 1 - July 1954 Through January 1963.

The Beatles' story has been told many times, but often with little focus on their personal experiences during their era. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, and producer George Martin were influenced by the sounds around them. Ribbons of Rust presents their journey by immersing readers in the music and times they lived in. The first volume, richly illustrated with period artifacts, takes you with The Beatles from their early inspirations to their initial compositions and covers. Rodriguez and Hammack explore how The Beatles developed their sound in Liverpool and Hamburg, drawing on American rock 'n' roll and deeper cultural traditions, ultimately securing a recording contract with EMI. Spanning July 1954 to January 1963, the book details the post-war British music scene and the influences that shaped The Beatles, bringing readers into the studio with them, from early Liverpool recordings to Hamburg sessions.

We’re talking Paul McCartney in this episode. Specifically his music during the decade of the 90s. Author JR Moores has a new book out now titled Off The Ground: Paul McCartney in the 1990s. This was an era like no other for McCartney, perhaps even the most significant decade of his entire career after the 1960s.

Following a shakier 1980s, the decade would see him reemerge with greater energy, momentum, and self-belief. JR Moores’s sympathetic but not uncritical new book explores McCartney’s ’90s, with its impressive studio and live albums, colossal tours, unexpected side-projects, imaginative collaborations, forays into classical composition, some new Beatles numbers, and a whole lot more besides. Moores reveals how McCartney’s reputation began to be perceived more generously by the public, and he argues that his output and activities in the ’90s would uncover more about the person behind them than in any other decade.
