Great art (as per usual)! For a second I thought it was yet another version of the “Hello Goodbye” video.
Close!
A “re-purposing,” as we say in the biz…
Another great episode. My two faves. Hendrix surprising them by playing Sgt. Pepper two days after it came out is one of the great rock stories. And so is McCartney getting Jimi into Monterey Pop. As usual, the repartee is fun and informative. It’s interesting and refreshing that you guys actually surprise each other on occasion. So… if McCartney was inspired by Hendrix for the Taxman solos, was Jimi inspired by Paul? Looking forward to your new show on the Get Back sessions. Apple should release a cleaned up version of Let It Be. And then release a movie called Get Back with all the fun bits.
“If McCartney wasn’t inspired by Hendrix…” Blew my own joke.
Hi guys, John Lennon ,once said, after Mick Jagger said some nasty things about The Beatles that they weren’t in the same class.Music wise and power wise.Can you commend on that.John said Mick got jealous.Are you going to make a show about The Beatles and The Stones.John also said that after every f…ing album they made, the Stones copied them.Do you think that’s true?
I learn something new with every podcast when here I thought I’d nearly exhausted my Beatle knowledge — the very notion of how history could have changed if Paul had gotten that telegram… not only could it have changed Paul’s solo career, it could very well have saved Jimi’s life. Peter Brown, you jerk!
Hi guys ! Congratulations for the great story. Just want to say I’m the one who revealed the two telegrams !!! I even got Peter Brown on the phone one time. He abruptly stopped the conversation when I said the fans were not happy that Paul wasn’t informed…
