Ep. 265 | Untitled Beatles Spring Cleaning
The guys are back (even if their voices aren't), and catch up on all the wild Beatlenews and Beatlereleases from the past few weeks.
It's been a hard day's fortnight, & Tony & T.J. have been working like dogs to buy, rent, or look at the following:
New Paul album, new Ringo album, new John meditation mixes, new George Dark Horse label re-releases, new Wings documentary & soundtrack, new documentary about Paul's bass, Evolver 62 documentary now streaming, and a new one-person show in Chicago about The Beatles by actor/writer (& Chicagoan!) Brendan Hunt, aka Coach Beard on Ted Lasso! Whew!
The guys also discuss how Bob Eubanks and Dick Biondi, announcing together at the Hollywood Bowl, both said "The Beatles" at the same time -- which possibly gave Eubanks the idea for The Newlywed Game, where couples try to say the same things about places where they made "whoopee".
Speaking of Dark Horse records, T.J.'s voice is especially dark & hoarse. Perhaps from running on a dark racecourse? And as George Martin says, dark horses for dark courses. But what about your father's dark horse? Of dark course, Henry the Dark Horse danced the waltz, & then The Beatles ate him in Germany for Christmas dinner. Very dark, indeed. (And...scene.)
