Coming on what would’ve been the 80th anniversary of his birth, this collection of Lennon material – Beatles and solo – is being presented by a number of artists associated with Beatles music, among them The Weeklings and The Gripweeds.
Consider this one a “new phase” SATB show – the first to feature a guest host: Tom Frangione. You may know him from his writings in Beatlefan magazine – his role twice annually at The Fest for Beatles Fans, or as one of the three hosts heard on the Sirius XM Beatles channel program, Fab Fourum. His guests on this episode are JEM Records’ president Marty Scott; veteran musician Glen Burtnik (Beatlemania, Styx, The Orchestra) of The Weeklings, and Kurt Reil (The Gripweeds). They discuss the process of putting this collection together, including song selection as well as the process of arranging such familiar material into something fresh.
