Hosted by Gil MacGhiolleainn- Welcome to Episode 12. This is a podcast for music lovers who are fans ordinarily of music and bands influenced by the Beatles & Beach Boys. For this episode, I am going with the originals-- the four kings of EMI-- to discuss EXCLUSIVELY Beatle tunes.

On the US Charts, the Beatles have score 20 songs at #1, and 30 songs in the Top 40 that did not make it to #1 (or even past #11, actually). 

I am not leaving a preview in the show notes, but you can find all tunes at www.thebeatles.com among other places. 

So, listen up, and prepare to be amused and outraged. 

And God only knows where any of us would be without...
