    Episode 228: "Lost" Beatles and Solo Songs

    Episode 228: "Lost" Beatles and Solo Songs

    In this episode, we examine "lost" songs -- those the Beatles wrote as a group and/or solo that never got an official release, or may truly be lost -- and talk about what we'd like to see happen. We'll discuss Ringo's "lost" 1987 album, two albums from Paul, some early Beatles/Quarrymen songs, and much more.

    Episode 227: A Deep Dive into "Band on the Run" by Paul McCartney and Wings!

    Episode 227: A Deep Dive into "Band on the Run" by Paul McCartney and Wings!

    Amazingly, after 12 years of doing this podcast, we've never done a full track-by-track analysis of the Paul McCartney and Wings 1973 album, Band on the Run. We give an overview of the album's genesis and history, go through the songs, discuss the many reissues, landing on the 50th anniversary edition (with the "underdubbed" mixes) released in February 2024. Is it Paul's best album?
    We also discuss some upcoming Beatles-related releases for Record Store Day, a new Sean Lennon album, and the relaunch of our video podcast.

    Episode 226: Songs Under the Microscope, Vol. 29 - John Lennon, "New York City"

    In this episode we go back into the lab to discuss John Lennon's 1972 song "New York City." Found on his double album Sometime in New York City, this song has been described as "journalese" and the "son of The Ballad of John and Yoko." We discuss some of the people mentioned in the lyrics, the production and music, and much more. We also tease our next episode on Band on the Run. And what did Ringo say about his upcoming album plans?
    Here's the cover song we mentioned:

    Episode 225: Beatles Friends -- Denny Laine

    In this episode we look at the life and career of songwriter, guitarist, and vocalist Denny Laine, who died in December 2023. Along with Paul and Linda, Denny was the only constant member of Wings during the 1970s, but he was also involved to varying degrees with many other groups throughout his life. We end the episode talking about the upcoming Band on the Run reissue, which Denny certainly played and sang on.

What!

I just listened to two guys laughing smugly at their own jokes, putting in the odd comparison of recordings from Let it Be, and forming loosely musical opinions on which version was the best. This was really, really bad.

Dud

How is Hello,Goodbye not a dud???? Even Rolling Stone agrees with (100th on Rolling Stone Beatles 100 Greatest Songs).
