    2026.37 Norwegian Wood, Second Version - Giles Martin - US 1966

    20/09/2026 | 1h 20 mins.
    This week - the third track from the "Rubber Soul" box set.      Marv and I also chat about some new interviews with Giles Martin (connecting "Pet Sounds", George Harrison, Rick Astley, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel), and the 1966 tour of the United States.     More than just Shea 1966 and Dodger Stadium! #madeonzencastr

    2026.36 Bob and George Pt.2

    14/09/2026 | 1h 20 mins.
    More of Bob Dylan and George Harrison.        Most of these tracks are live, the disc starting with the rehearsals for "The Concert for Bangladesh".  We wander through the red sky, drop into Porky's (where Kim Cattrall might or might not get some revenge), and end up back in Madison Square Garden during both the eighties and aughts.    #madeonzencastr.

    2026.35 Aurelius Lennon, his grandfather and more...

    06/09/2026 | 1h
    Labor Day fun with Tom Hunyady (2legs), Marv and myself covering the latest in Beatles news.    Sean has a son, we get to see a long-lost Beatles (miming) appearance from "Top of the Pops", and Zak might be reuniting with Roger Daltrey and the Who... #madeonzencastr

    2026.34 George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Jesse Ed Davis ... and Taj Mahal

    31/08/2026 | 1h 22 mins.
    George Harrison was working on Cloud Nine, and visited the States in early 1987.    George and his producer-in-crime Jeff Lynne hooked up with Wilbury-to-be Bob Dylan and recent collaborator Duane Eddy for an evening at the Palomino Club in North Los Angeles.    The headliner?     Taj Mahal and the Graffiti Band including good friend Jesse Ed Davis.    The result?    Nearly two hours of George Harrison live with Dylan, John Fogerty and more! #madeonzencastr

    2026.33 Storytelling through the solo years.

    23/08/2026 | 1h 9 mins.
    Marv and I talk storytelling within the solo Beatles story.     Given the documentaries and biopics covering the Beatles together and as a group, what else might make for a good film (of either type) in the near future?    Ringo Starr as lead character in a "Stand and Deliver" style drama?     A documentary covering the times two (or more) Beatles assembled after 1970?     All this and more in this #whentheywasfab episode!   #madeonzencastr.
