    Macca Snacks #2 / Paul McCartney’s The 7” Singles Box (2022)

    Having a Macca Snack Attack (TM, pending)? We are too! Or, at least we did in late-2022, when Tony & T.J. rocked out to then-recently reissued and remastered Macca 45's.
    Come join for part two of this long-running, daytime/nighttime Macca singles (only!) party, and stay for the painstaking play-by-play of the unique, heretofore unexplained, debut-and/or-mistake mistake mix of the “Only Love Remains” 7” single remaster. WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THIS? ARE YOU LISTENING, M.P.L.?? ALL FREAKING CAPS!!

    T.J. Shanoff (1974) 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition

    T.J. Shanoff (1974) 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition

    It’s T.J.’s birthday! It’s T.J.’s birthday! And we would like to give him all of the cassettes!
    The celebrated 4th member of the UBP (a. Tony, b. Casey, c. P3Z-Nutz) celebrates 46 years of Beatles love and weirdo-sniffer-collecting on the occasion of his 50th birthday! From meeting Paul McCartney to a crisis of what Apple ’92 closeout cassettes to buy in ’96, T.J. and Tony discuss some of the birthday boy’s favorite Beatles memories in a lifetime of loving the music and unmatched excellence of the Fab 4.
    But a special birthday episode can’t derail the usual chicanery, and lots of rando preguntas are asked, including:
    🐝 Is “My Girl” by The Turtles more or less of a soul classic than the one by The Temptations? And can a bee sting really f you up, like kill you? #MyGirl
    🐚 Holy s**t, Peter Noone is still alive? Do you think Kathy Bartlett knows? Holy s**t, is Kathy Bartlett still alive?
    🥁 Was the absolute highlight of Record Store Day 2024 Ringo’s “Crooked Boy” EP? Or are only the criminally insane interested in this item?

    Now and Then (2023) Revisted

    Now and Then (2023) Revisted

    Now and then, do you ever want to hear, "Now And Then"? Or is your "Real Love" reserved for "Free As A Bird"?
    Believe it or not: a) I'm walking on air, never thought I could feel so freeeee!, and II) "Now And Then" is already 5 months old. Wtf? Where has the time gone? And more importantly, where have all the cowboys gone? #ShawnColvin (sfx: buzzer) #PaulaCole (sfx: ding)
    Now felt like the right time to revisit the "Last Beatles Song" (TM, until we get "Carnival Of Light"). Is it great? Rubbish? Somewhere in the middle, Patricia Heaton? And while we're on the subject-ish:
    🦅 Generally, from a laundry perspective, does Tony prefer to kick 'em when they're up, or kick 'em when they're down?
    🐂 (Angry Chicago guy:) How come they don't play the Dave Clark Five no more during timeouts at Bulls games? SAME GOES FOR THE BUCKINGHAMS, SON!
    🍆 (Happy Chicago guy:)  I ain't religious but thank you, Lorde for Arne Harris in the summertime!

    SPECIAL REPLAY: The Beatles' Second Album (1964)

    SPECIAL REPLAY: The Beatles' Second Album (1964)

    The guys are on Spring Break this week, so we handed the reins over to P3Z-Nutz for another Untitled Beatles Podclassic!
    -----
    [Originally released February 5, 2021]
    The gang continues its exploration of the early U.S. Capitol Records releases, this week covering the covers-heavy Beatles' Second Album.

    Tony owns up to his early underestimation of this classic,


    T.J. goes to bat for his official Fifth Beatle,


    Bryan Adams brings his piano to your mom's porch,


    And we think we've maybe stumbled upon the next great (grown-ups only) classic rock radio format, just in case this whole podcast thing doesn't pan out.

    Apologies in advance to the City of Sacramento, and those who are sensitive to explicit language.LINKS:

    Seventh Beatle Bracket Part 2

    Seventh Beatle Bracket Part 2

    It’s One Shining Moment at the Untitled Beatles Podcast, as we reach the thrilling (?) conclusion of Beatles March Madness, and crown the official, Apple-Endorsed (TBD) 7th Beatle! Who can it be, now? Colin Hay? Or, Colin Haaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyy?
    The A.M. white wine (angry Chicago guy: HOW COME WOKE SOMMELIERS DON’T LET YOU DRINK NO WHITE WINE NO MORE? AND HOW COME DEBRA LEFT ME IN ’81?) was flowing on this one, and as a result, many other questions are asked and answered, such as…
    💩🗿 Is “Butt Rock” the best-ever K-Tel compilation?
    🪕 If you put literally any two, generic male names together, is it possible they played in The Quarrymen?
    🪘 Would longtime Ringo All-Starr Band drummer Sheila E. have significantly improved “She’s Leaving Home”; at least when compared to ol’ Harpie Bromberg? #HarpieBromberg
