In this episode, Dave and Chris discuss the 2021 film The Beatles and India. This is a documentary that's just about what it says -- how the Beatles' connections to India began, developed, and ended. Along the way, you'll hear from pundits like Mark Lewisohn and Steve Turner, Patti Boyd, and many others who were in Rishikesh when the Beatles stayed there in 1968. We also discuss one of the most significant revelations the movie points out regarding why the Beatles left India. We think the movie is well worth a watch.

When was the last time you thought about the 40+ Beatles/Solo instrumental tunes? We went deep into the catalog and ranked our top 10 best instrumentals, which includes some obvious choices, but also some obscure gems. All four Beatles are discussed, but clearly Paul McCartney wins the award for sheer numbers of instrumentals. Did we choose your favorites? What do you think of our order?

What would've happened if the Beatles reunited to make an album in 1973 based on the four albums recorded that year? We draw from Mind Games, Band on the Run, Living in the Material World, and Ringo to compile a 12-track album that we think would be even better if all four Beatles played and contributed to the songs. Chris and Dave both had different approaches to their album construction, but they both work well as listens. If only that had happened...
Dave's album: Band on the Run, Jet, Photograph, Out The Blue, Don't Let Me Wait Too Long, I'm The Greatest, Give Me Love (Give Me Peace on Earth), Mind Games, Bluebird, Bring on the Lucie (Freeda People), Who Can See It, and 1985.
Chris's album: I'm the Greatest, Band on the Run, Sue You Sue Me Blues, Mind Games, Photograph, Let Me Roll It, One Day at a Time, Give Me Love, Bluebird, Be Here Now, I Know I Know, 1985

In an I've Got A Beatles Podcast first, we examine a song that wasn't written by a Beatle nor appeared on a Beatles or solo album -- but it features Paul McCartney prominently! In this episode, we discuss Michael Jackson and Paul McCartney's duet "The Girl is Mine" from 1982's Thriller album. What do we think about the lyrics ("doggone girl??") and music? How did the song come about and what's going on at the end of the song? Are there any covers of the song? Check out the episode and let us know what you think.
We also review the latest Record Store Day.
