Episode 153: An Analysis of "Beatles For Sale!"
Wednesday Mar 25, 2020
Wednesday Mar 25, 2020
We've danced around the topic before, but never dug deeply into the Beatles' 1964 album, Beatles For Sale. This album either gets overlooked, dismissed, or forgotten, but in our discussion we feel there are some songs that should definitely get a second look (and some that shouldn't). We hope you enjoy our discussion, and feel free to comment on our Facebook page, on Twitter @ivegotabeatles, or by email at ivegotabeatlespodcast@hotmail.com.

We're excited to share our discussion and analysis of George Harrison's 1970 album All Things Must Pass, celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Because the album is so big and epic, we've decided to do our review in two parts, and this episode covers the first disc/record. We talk about the album, songs, the recording, the Phil Spector influence, and much more. Share your thoughts on All Things Must Pass here:

Happy 2020! Join us in our first episode of the year as we dig into the last Wings tour of the UK in 1979, with a specific look at the set of gigs they played in Glasgow, Scotland. Paul and his "Back to the Egg" band are in great form, having fun and playing tightly together. We discuss the diverse setlist which includes some surprises, our disappointment that Wings basically ended after these gigs, and of course, we comment on Paul's usual hilarious pre-song banter.
