When They Was Fab: Electric Arguments About the Beatles

Marv and I sit down with Ringo's new record and discuss the eight new songs (along with some chat on the previously available tunes)

Too much news!    Marv and I virtually wander the halls of 30 Rock as we learn that Paul will be the musical guest that closes out the 51st season of SNL.     Is it a coincidence the "five timers club" was just opened to musical guests as Sir Macca climbs on for his fifth (official) "musical guest" spot?     Our attention is slightly split though, as we also finish out our look at the tracks on side B of John Lennon's Rock 'n' Roll, and the bonuses from that era that have been uncovered post-"Milk and Honey".

Marv and I discuss the songs on side A of John Lennon's Rock 'n' Roll.     While we wait for the (fingers crossed) eventual Ultimate Collection, we talk the original versions of the tunes, a bit about how the songs fit into Beatles/Lennon history, and some thoughts on how John chose to modify (or not) the arrangements.     Part 2 (side B + the "others") next week.    #madeonzencastr.

Jon Stone and Marv sit down as we discuss the fun that is the promotion for "The Boys of Dungeon Lane".    Mike Mac, his son Josh, BBC Merseyside, Google, Target and Talk Shop Live all join MPL on introducing and promoting Paul McCartney's new album "The Boys of Dungeon Lane."     Remember, 211 Hale Road at Dungeon Lane! #madeonzencastr.

Marv and I go through some news, and then the power of a new McCartney song summoned Jon Stone from the ether, so the three of us discuss the song, the radio reveal, and lead into next week where we talk about the "Taylorization" (and that's not a negative thing!) of music promotion, even for former Beatles!
