April 22, 2025 Sgt. Pepper album cover designer Jann Haworth
Jann and Peter Blake designed what Rolling Stone called the “greatest album cover of all time.” The story behind that album cover is fascinating.

April 08, 2025 "John & Paul" Author Ian Leslie
Ian Leslie has written a new book titled “John & Paul: A Love Story in Songs” where he puts forth a fascinating premise: That John and Paul communicated to each other via song lyrics - during the Beatles years. Leslie says that Lennon and McCartney was an intense relationship, but while they wrote incredible songs together, they were unable to communicate their deep friendship to each other - so they camouflaged those feelings in songs. It’s a terrific read. Here’s a link to purchase the book.
