Things We Said Today #412 – A Visit with Sir Michael Lindsay-Hogg

In Episode 411 of Things We Said Today, Ken Michaels, Allan Kozinn and Darren Devivo discuss the newly restored version of Michael Lindsay-Hogg’s 1970 “Let It Be,” and how it got its bad reputation, and how it looks now; the just announced “Mind Games” archival release, due in July, and Ringo Starr’s virtual press conference on May 15. [For listeners looking for specific topics, the first part of the show is devoted to the News, with “Let It Be” discussion starting at 33 minutes, the overview of the “Mind Games” reissue (and formats) beginning at 1 hour 33 minutes, and the report on Ringo’s press conference getting underway at 1 hour 52 minutes. Yeah, it’s a long one, but think of it as three shows in one!]

Things We Said Today #410 – Beatles Intros, Ringo’s “Crooked Boy” and Paul’s “One Hand Clapping”

In Episode 409 of Things We Said Today, Darren Devivo, Ken Michaels and Allan Kozinn have a chat with Dana Klosner about her book “Beatlemania Lives On – Superfans in the 21st Century,” a fun read about the current state of Beatle fandom, based on interviews with everyone from Peter Asher and Laurence Juber to fans who have turned their onstage autographs into tattoos, with authors, DJs (Darren was among her interviewees) and Beatles tribute band musicians. For those who prefer to liten selectively, the news section begins at 3’00” and the interview with Dana starts at 26’30”.

Things We Said Today #409 – Dana Klosner and Beatlemania Lives On

A number of correspondents have asked why the Beatles “Red” and “Blue” album reissues were not covered on Things We Said Today, so in episode 408, Ken Michaels, Allan Kozinn and Darren Devivo catch up with those releases, as well as the more recent “Underdubbed” version of Paul McCartney’s “Band on the Run.” (Allan also offers a preview of the new HMC bootleg release with earlier versions of the “Band on the Run” tracks.) For those who want to listen selectively, the news segment begins at 4’33” (yes, really), the “Red” and “Blue” discussion is at 35’, and the McCartney section is at 1’24”.
