Adam: You may have heard me talking here a couple of weeks ago about the Quarrelmen Beatles miniseries I’m doing. It's my birthday so I’m birthing it everywhere you get your podcasts plus I’m putting the first episode here too to tempt you into subscribing. You’re not gonna be able to resist after hearing this episode that we did at none other than Abbey Road Studios when my band Stones n Roses was on tour there back in 2021. I told the other We Will Rank You hosts I’d have all the Beatles albums ranked within a year. Four years later, I’ve only recorded about half of them but here they come! You’re not going to see any more episodes here until the one where all four OG hosts ranked- Well I’m not telling you which one. You’ll have to wait and see and if you want to hear Jim and I rank an album in Liverpool, you’ll just have to figure out how to spell Quarrelmen and go subscribe, won’t you? WON’T you? We’re on Facebook, Instagram and Threads too so do the thing. Breaking up the band to start a solo career? Nah but, for now, here’s the Fab Four…. THE QUARRELMEN PODCAST #1 Please Please Me ranked at Abbey Road What’s your most loved and least favorite song on the first Beatles album?! One, two, three, FAH! The Quarrelmen Beatles podcast miniseries kicks off with England's own Richard Merrett (Airhead/the Wilsons) and his young sons Frank and George Merrett ranking Please Please Me in the most famous studio in the world. Recorded back in 2021 at the end of the last Stones n' Roses UK tour, the California band recorded a version of "Revolution 9" with 1960s microphones used by "the boys" and Beatles Anthology, Rock Band and Love engineer Chris Bolster with Joe Wyatt (now Giles Martin's assistant). After a quick photoshoot of the band walking across THE street, singer Adam Gimbel welcomed the Merretts into the cozy Gatehouse studio to record the very first episode of the Quarrelmen. He had no idea it would be four busy, crazy years before the world would hear it. The kids are now senior citizens. The results are, quite simply, the most endearing Beatles podcast episode ever immortalized at Abbey Road....or anywhere else. Decades of fandom and childlike wonder collide with memories and a ranking of least and most favorites on the 1963 classic debut.
