In this episode, we explore an early European gig the Beatles played in Stockholm, Sweden, on October 30, 1963. Their appearance on the TV show Drop In marked the final stop of their first Scandinavian tour. Unlike the frenzied crowds they would soon face, the audience was remarkably well-behaved, allowing the band’s performance to shine. The Beatles themselves seemed to be having a great time, and thanks to George’s faintly mic’d guitar, John’s rhythm playing comes through more clearly than ever. These performances highlight intricate musical details across the four songs they played. Watching the footage (link here) makes you wish there were more performances without screaming!

We finish with some of the latest Beatles news.

Our video venture: "Song Album Career!"

Jump into this episode where we do a fully-detailed analysis and deep dive of the 1978 movie Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band starring Peter Frampton and The Bee Gees, among *numerous* other guest stars of the day like George Burns and Steve Martin. Often deemed one of the worst films of all time, we talk about the absolutely idiotic plot, the terrible acting, some of the awful covers, a few of the good ones, what the movie did to the careers of the stars, and so much more. We leave no stone unturned in this analysis!

Our video venture: "Song Album Career!"

In this episode, we talk about the title song of Paul McCartney's 1983 album Pipes of Peace. In addition to our usual discussion of lyrics and music, we talk about the powerful video that accompanied the song starring two "Pauls" (a German and English one!). This was Paul's last #1 in Britain -- does it live up to that reputation all these years later? And as always, we get into the myriad cover versions as well. Here's a list:
