The record is flipped as we travel through "Devil Woman", the how's why's and extended versions of "Six O'Clock", right through to a bit more of the legend of Jack Nitzsche, Klaus Voorman, Vini Poncia, David Hentschel and the inimitable Ringo Starr.    We'd like to thank you for making that little bit of plastic.

Music History

Marv and I finish up our review/overview of the McCartney "Life in Lyrics" podcast with episodes 11 and 12 ("Michelle" and "The End").      We then briefly overview the series to date, and talk about some of the things we noticed (both positive and negative) through the twenty-four episodes.    No full episode on any song after "Here Today" and the Tug of War album?     That's a shame.      Despite the long odds, our fingers are crossed for at least one more series to cover more of the post-Wings output.

2024.23 Life in Lyrics Season 2 - episodes 11 and 12

This week I am joined by the host of Fans on the Run and our own Chas Newby (and the guy who made that really neat graphic of "Rocky"), Ethan Alexanian.    He joins us to discuss the Mark Lewisohn kerfuffle.   For those who don't know, here is the dictionary definition of Kerfuffle:








a commotion or fuss, especially one caused by conflicting views.

"there was a kerfuffle over the chairmanship"











2024.22 The Lewisohn Kerfuffle

WHO is talking?    You might not know, as we get a quick flyby from "Toppermost of the Poppermost" hosts "Queen of All Beatles Media" Kit O'Toole and "Yeah, he is also among the co-hosts of the show" Martin Quibell.    (In baseball terms, they are "openers").     The bulk of the show features BC the Beatles co-host Erika White, and "Writer, Occasional Troublemaker and Full-Time Whovian" Jim Ryan.      We talk the intersections of "Doctor Who" and the Beatles (who knew Brian Epstein hung with Verity Lambert), and review/discuss "The Devil's Chord", the recent episode featuring actors portraying Cilla and JPGR.

As with practically every other Beatles podcast in the multiverse, the topic of the week is the 2024 release of "Let It Be" on Disney+.    Lonnie Pena and I sit down, discuss the VHS, Laserdisc, new streaming version and more.

2024.20 Let It Be (Disney+, 2024)

Marv, Lonnie and I talk the new Record Store Day Mind Games EP and two more episodes from the "Life In Lyrics" podcast.  A nice preview of the box set coming later this summer, and we return to Paul McCartney's Life in Lyrics podcast for episodes covering "Here There and Everywhere" and "Give Ireland Back to the Irish."
