This is a game Beatles fans have been playing for many years. What would The Beatles albums of the ’70s have been like if they had stayed together instead of breaking up? This post is for the first imaginary Beatles album released in January 1971. It features songs that were released on John, Paul, & [...]

As a follow-up to this post on the top 11 Beatles songs not included in Rolling Stone’s list of the 100 best Beatles songs and this post on the remastered versions of the Red & Blue compilations coming out on October 4th, I’m writing this post (the one you’re reading right now) on the best [...]

OK Go has done it again with another brilliant continuous shot music video. This one is for their new single “White Knuckles” and features some very well trained dogs. Check it out:

There’s a “special collectors edition” of Rolling Stone out now with a list of The Beatles 100 greatest songs (only original songs, no covers.) 100 songs is a lot. What other band/artist can you imagine making a top 100 list for and it not being absolutely ridiculous? What’s even more amazing is that there are [...]

Commercials success vs. artistic success. In the long run the good stuff wins out, that’s my theory. I’m using Engelbert Humperdink (commercial success) and Leonard Cohen (artistic success) as an example of what I mean. They both released their first album in 1967.

This is what the 11 disc set includes: + All eight John Lennon solo albums remastered (hopefully done as well as the remastered Beatles albums in The Beatles Stereo Box Set.) + A disc [...]

“On August 23rd 2009, a group of Radiohead fans descended on the Výstaviště Holešovice Exhibition Hall in Prague on a mission to capture the band playing using as many different angles as possible. Bringing together the exceptional talents of many contributors, here’s a glimpse of the result.” After learning about the project Radiohead gave the [...]

Today I came across this really great Paul McCartney interview with Howard Stern in 2001 (not sure of the exact date, but it’s after 9/11) and I enjoyed it so much that I thought I should share it here. I’m one of those Beatles freaks who has seen and read everything about The Beatles so [...]

I just downloaded Philip Selway’s Familial from AmazonMP3 for $7.99 and I’m really pleased with it thus far. It’s an exceedingly pleasant album. If you like quiet contemplative songs then you may dig this album quite a bit. What does it sound like? Think Nick Drake with some subtle Radiohead-esque sonic experimentation. The songs are [...]
