I’ve Got a Beatles Podcast!

Episode 46: Review of The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger's "Midnight Sun" (Sean Lennon's band)

In this episode, we divert from our Fab Four focus and discuss Sean Lennon's new music project and group, The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger.  Their new album, "Midnight Sun" has a lot of innovative and interesting sounds on it, and shows that Sean continues to reinvent himself.  We discuss each track on the album, Chris shares his experience seeing the group in Chicago, and give the album a rating.

Keep the ideas for our 50th episode coming -- we've got some great ones so far!

Episode 45: Best George Vocals!

Episode 44: Some Thoughts on the Reissue of "A Hard Day's Night"

Listen in as we talk about the new Criterion Collection reissue of A Hard Day's Night, the first Beatles film.  In the spirit of former film critic Roger Ebert (a huge fan of the movie), we both give it "two thumbs up!" We talk about our favorite scenes, the quality of the reissue, and some of the extras in the package. 

Episode 43: Paul is Live in Kansas City!

We're back with a review of Paul's concert in Kansas City, MO on July 16.  Chris and Dave recorded this podcast together in the same room for the first time as well.  Two thumbs up from both of us!

Episode 42: "Mother Nature's Dunce: The Career Mistakes of Paul McCartney"

We already addressed John Lennon's dubious career moves in an earlier episode, so it's time to have some fun with Paul McCartney's!  We describe 12 mistakes that caused Paul some damage throughout his long career, including dealings with MJ, a lack of quality control, and a plethora of live albums.  Tune in to hear the rest and share your own thoughts or nominations on our Facebook page.

Episode 41: Reverse Covers, Vol. 2: The Solo Years
