    Episode 265: Review of Ringo Starr, "Long Long Road"

    In this episode, Dave and Chris review Ringo Starr’s new album Long Long Road, produced by T‑Bone Burnett. We discuss the album’s short runtime, country/Americana slant, and notable guests (Molly Tuttle, Billy Strings, St. Vincent, Sheryl Crow), and consider whether this feels like a sequel to his last year's Look Up. As usual with most Ringo albums, his drumming is great and his voice is good, but there are some inconsistent production choices, weirdly-muted guest vocals, and some repetitive or filler moments. But if you want to hear it, use these links to purchase the album!

    Episode 264: "Cool Ends": The Best Beatles Song Endings

    In this episode, Dave and Chris explore the many ways the Beatles end their songs — from dramatic codas and long fade-outs to chaotic jams, unexpected chord shifts, and of course, studio histrionics. The Beatles have many "cool ends" to go along with their "hot starts!" We cover some of the famous endings in tracks like "A Day in the Life," "Hey Jude," "Strawberry Fields Forever," "I Am the Walrus," as well as some tunes that you may not expect.

    Episode 260: A Deep Dive into the Beatles' Psychedelic Era (and a Ranking!)

    In this episode, we discuss what makes rock music "psychedelic" and debate the Beatles songs that best capture the era’s "trippy" sounds. We rank our top psychedelic Beatles tracks (including "Strawberry Fields Forever," "Tomorrow Never Knows," "I am the Walrus," "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," and many more), examine instrumentation and studio effects and of course the lyrics. We then cover news about reissues and Record Store Day releases.

    Episode 259: Famous Covers - Elton John, "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" and "One Day At A Time"

    Happy 2026! In this new occasional series "Famous Covers," we'll explore some of the most successful Beatles and solo artist covers from a wide range of musicians. The first entry features a 1975 double-sided single by Elton John, covering two John Lennon-penned songs - "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" and "One Day At A Time." Elton stays largely faithful to the original recordings, but puts his own spin on the tracks. John Lennon himself contributed guitar and background vocals on Elton's version of "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" and played guitar on "One Day At A Time." So which Elton John cover do we like better - his take on the psychedelic "Lucy In The Sky" or the more introspective "One Day At A Time?"  Feel free to email or record a message about this episode to ivegotabeatlespodcast@outlook.com and we'll include you in our "Please Mr. Postman" segment.
