Happy 2025! We begin this year with our review of Ringo Starr's new album Look Up. We talk about the guest stars who play with Ringo (Billy Strings, Molly Tuttle, and others), the songs, the production and songwriting by T-Bone Burnett, the idea of this being a "country" album, Ringo's recent concerts in Nashville (and a cool new setlist!), and much more.
We finish with a bit of Beatles news.
Thanks for listening!

Our video venture: "Song Album Career!"
For our last episode of 2024 (and released on the day the Beatles were officially disbanded 50 years ago!), Dave interviews Chip Madinger, co-author of Eight Arms to Hold You and Lennonology, about all the events in the Beatles world in 1974. They talk about John's "Lost Weekend," Walls and Bridges, Paul and Wings in their new incarnation, Ringo's album Goodnight Vienna, and George Harrison's North American tour and Dark Horse. In many ways, this was the last year when all four Beatles were really active.
Learn more about Chip at this link. You can buy his books and learn all about his work there.
See you in 2025!

Our video venture: "Song Album Career!"
We've made it to the end of another year! One of our yearly traditions is reviewing all the Beatle events in the course of a year, as well as discussing all the releases (music, merchandise, books) across the Beatles universe from 2024. And we always enjoy playing "how much does this item cost," where Chris asks Dave to guess the cost of various Beatles-related items. We also discuss our favorite non-Beatles reissues and new music for the year. Hope you enjoy this look back at 2024!

In this episode, we discuss a true Beatles friend, drummer Jim Keltner. The session drummer was a mainstay on Beatles solo albums and performances/tours from John, George, and Ringo in the 1970s, as well as being a member of the Traveling Wilburys. Keltner also played with about everyone in the business, ranging from Gary Lewis and the Playboys to Lana Del Rey, and being one of the most-recorded drummers in music history. Here is a playlist that give you an overview of his work.
We also give you the latest Beatles news, including news on Ringo's new album and a film by Martin Scorsese.

Our video venture: "Song Album Career!"
In this episode, we talk about one of the songs featured on the Beatles' penultimate single as the B-side of "Let it Be" : "You Know My Name (Look Up The Number)." Known as one of the group's quirkiest tunes, we talk about the production that took place over two different years, the music that works like a theme and variations, the ska section that was excised from the final version, and of course all the silly voices and sounds on the song. Oh, and a member of the Rolling Stones who played the sax solo too. Give it another listen if you haven't heard it in a while!
We also talk about some recent Beatles news including the upcoming Capitol mono vinyl set, the Living in the Material World deluxe set, and more. Enjoy!

The Beatles: Live at the BBC was released in 1994. The album contained 50+ tracks from some of the 50+ programs the Beatles played on for the BBC during 1962-65. The album was a big hit, selling over 8 million copies, and it was a particular favorite for Dave and Chris who waited in line at a Best Buy in Champaign-Urbana, IL to buy it and get a free poster! We talk about the album, choose our top 10 songs from the album, choose some of the songs that didn't work very well (usually because of the sound quality), and much more. If you haven't pulled out the album in years, now would be a great time to do so! It was also remastered in 2013, so you could get that version as well.

We're back from our summer break with our deep dive into the remix/super deluxe release of John Lennon's 1973 album Mind Games that came out last month. We've never discussed the actual album before, so we begin with a full track-by-track, keeping in mind the current remixing. We then talk about each of the remaining discs, evaluate the content, and hear some listener responses to the album's reissue. We hope you enjoy our lengthier discussion about this set and Mind Games in the context of John Lennon's solo music.
Enjoy!
