Encore: The Cleave Series: How Did John Lennon Live in 1966? Part 1 Feb 14, 2024

In this episode, host Diana Erickson and regular guest Dr. Duncan Driver dive into the first part of Maureen Cleave's 1966 profile of John Lennon, originally published in The Evening Standard under the title "How A Beatle Lives." These extraordinary interviews offer unique insight into the Beatles' world and lives at this time. John Lennon captivates with his swagger and charm.

These contemporaneous portraits hold significant value because they challenge some of the dominant stories about the Beatles at this time. So much of our understanding of the Beatles has been informed by what the Beatles said after the breakup, and this close reading allows us to consider what they actually said at that time.

Part 2 will come out on Thursday.

Revisiting RAM. Engineer Eirik Wangberg On The Making of RAM: "His Spirit Was Free" May 03, 2023

This episode revisits my interview with RAM engineer, Eirik "The Norwegian" Wangberg, the engineer that spent two months alone in a studio with Paul and Linda McCartney during the making of RAM. Due to these circumstances, Wangberg was able to observe the McCartneys at a time when they were quite insular, so it was a treat to speak to the charming Norwegian. According to Wangberg, McCartney "was in a tough, tough situation. But he did it marvelously...His spirit was totally free." Wangberg wore many hats in the album's creation, ultimately sequencing and mixing the album. http://www.eirikwangberg.com/ One Sweet Dream Info: Website: onesweetdreampodcast.com Email: onesweetdreampodcast@gmail.com Patreon: Patreon.com/onesweetdream

Titled "How A Beatle Lives," these exceptional interviews provide a rare glimpse into the world of the Beatles in 1966.

And this especially applies to Lennon, who was most interested in reframing his experience. So this allows us to observe them without this lens. In this interview, we go on an adventure with John Lennon, who is unusually open and revealing—he is also full of swagger and charm as he grandstands for Cleave.

This Deep Dive into the Get Back film was recorded on multiple occasions with musician Jonathan Skovron, resulting in the OSD Deep Dive Trilogy! Peter Jackson would be proud! In part 1, we explore Jackson's narrative choices, the Lennon and McCartney dynamics, George's predicament in the band, the working relationship between the men, and the impact of Yoko's presence. In Part 2, we cover the trajectory of the project, Billy Preston, the secret lunchroom scene, leadership, the musical conversation between L/M, and George Harrison's walkout. In Part 3, we cover the Peter Sellers scene, the hypothetical Beatles collective concept, the independent album concept, the India scene — and also always, we returned to the George Harrison walking, Yoko, and the Lennon McCartney relationship.

New Lens Series: Paul McCartney's Creative Practice with Phillip McIntyre and Paul Thompson Apr 04, 2021

In this episode, Diana explores Paul McCartney's artistry and creative process with Phillip McIntyre and Paul Thompson, authors of the upcoming book “Paul and His Creative Practice. The Beatles and Beyond.” Phillip, Paul, and Diana have a wide-ranging discussion that covers topics such as flow state, collaboration, Crocodile Dundee, and how Paul McCartney is just like James Bond. A link to their book: “Paul and His Creative Practice. The Beatles and Beyond.” Phillip and Paul's list of recommended/ representative McCartney songs: Phillip's List of Songs: Yesterday: A very real classic of Western songwriting which is to be to be honored as such. ‘Paperback Writer’: Not only a great set of lyrics but the guitar part also looks ahead to the playing on ‘Maybe I’m Amazed’ t!! ‘Rain/Taxman/And Your Bird Can Sing/I’m Only Sleeping’: If you want to hear why McCartney is one the pioneers of the electric bass listen to this much-imitated golden period. ‘Back in the USSR’: This is a great demonstration of how McCartney plays drums. ‘You Never Give Me Your Number/Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End’: Put these together in a playlist and you get a very good sense of what George Martin asked them to do with this album. ‘Maybe I’m Amazed’: It is so hard to pull this trick off and he does it in spades here. Every note, every part, does exactly what it should do and he played it all. The Mind boggles. Amazing! ‘Back Seat of My Car: A singer’s singer right there! ‘Listen to What the Man Said’: Just listen to the harmonies. ‘Hey Diddle’: Relaxed, simple, and loads of fun just like ‘Dance Tonight’. He keeps throwing them away. ‘Warm and Beautiful’ is An understated and underrated hymn. Paul's List You Never Give Me Your Money: Quite simply, this is my favorite McCartney song; his voice right at the end is just incredible. Drive My Car: McCartney's voice at its best. 1985: Killer piano, killer voice! On My Way to Work: Love the arrangement (I want to) Come Home: A beautiful arrangement and an example that showcases Paul's aging voice. Support the show

This is part three of the RAM extravaganza. In this episode, Diana and Duncan continue their deep dive into McCartney's brilliant album RAM. They pick up their analysis where they left off — with the exquisite Dear Boy — and make their way through the rest of the album.

New Lens Series: RAM Engineer Eirik Wangberg on being in the studio with Paul and Linda Mar 24, 2021

This is a multi-part episode that celebrates Paul and Linda McCartney's brilliant and influential album RAM. In part one, Diana talks to Eirik "The Norwegian" Wangberg, the engineer that spent two months alone in a studio with Paul McCartney during the making of RAM. Wangberg's access put him in a unique position as observer and collaborator and he not only paints a vivid picture of Paul and Linda at that time but he provides additional dimension to Paul as an artist. Few people have the ability to provide this kind of insight given the insularity of Paul and Linda McCartney in 1971 so it was a treat to speak to the charming Norwegian. Wangberg was also able to comment on the creation of the album itself as he wore many hats in its construction, ultimately selecting, sequencing, and mixing the songs on RAM. Support the show

Aftermath Series: The importance of Instant Karma Mar 20, 2021

This episode marks the beginning of OSD's examination of the period after Lennon's divorce declaration. Diana is joined by Dr. Duncan Driver to analyze the meaning of the song Instant Karma. Could there be more to the song than a surface-level reading? Could it provide more insight into the breakup period? Diana and Duncan make the case that it does. “The two guys as friends, there was never a time when they wouldn’t have fought for the other guy, so, you know, they wrote songs about it, you know John would just write Instant Karma and Paul would write a song back at him. And that’s how they fought. Writing songs at each other.” — Alice Cooper Support the show

Breakup Series #11: The Divorce Meeting! Mar 12, 2021

Diana and Phoebe discuss the infamous September 20th "divorce" meeting where John Lennon declared he wanted a divorce from the Beatles. We examine the various recollections of the meeting from both Lennon and McCartney's perspectives in an effort to understand what actually transpired between them, how they each viewed the meeting, and how they spun the story afterward. We debate whether John's declaration was reactionary, a true cry of emancipation, a strategic move that required a countermove, or even whether this truly was the end of the Beatles. After 10 episodes of backstory, we have arrived at the divorce meeting.

Breakup Series #10: Ten Days in September '69: Paul (Pt 1) Mar 08, 2021

In this TWO PART episode, we will track McCartney over the ten days leading up to the September 20th meeting — as we did for Lennon. In PART ONE we discuss Paul’s BBC interview and the impact on the situation when they lose Northern Songs. We unpack Paul’s interview —one of only a handful he gave that year—and examine what he was actually communicating. This is important because far too often thoughts, feelings, and motivations are projected onto Paul based on post-narrative spin rather than his own contemporaneous words. In part 2 we talk about how Paul is framed in the story, and pressure test this characterization. We also try to see the story from both Paul’s perspective and from those around him.
