It looks like this time the indie kids have spoken. It is interesting to read a review of The Beatles’ latest offering in the context of contemporary indie rock. It is a testament to the lasting legacy and immediacy of the Fab Four, and their lasting legacy and impact on current music now and beyond. [...]

This whole story is so….yesterday. You mean to tell me that Paul is still bitter with Yoko over the whole Michael Jackson deal? I guess I would be bitter too. Not only do you lose control of the catalog, and your songs are used to promote tennis shoes, but you have to pay to play [...]

Well I am not sure if it is Beatlemania all over again, but the Fab Four are still as popular as ever. It appears that they are well on theit way towards another #1 album. Could this statement be:
A. A testament towards the ever-present popularity for the greatest pop/rock group of all time?
B. A proclamation that aging [...]

I do remember reading in a Lennon interview from years ago that he did not want to relive the Beatles mania and play Beatle golden-oldies like a fat Elvis. You know, I can’t help but think that John of all people would love the revisionist history found in the Vegas show. It is the irony of all [...]

It was 5 years ago today that the world lost George Harrison, the Quiet Beatle. Today, think of George and help to celebrate his life, his spirituality that changed us, and his art that inspires us all.
George we miss you.
Leave your favorite memories of George in the comments if you’d like.

You may see all sorts of weird compilations and things going on with The Fab’s catalog in the near future. My prediction is that we’ll see all sorts of crazy things fab once the copyright is set free. Hopefully this is overturned. We’ll keep you posted.
Here’s what we’ve read.
The UK treasury is set to refuse [...]

If you don’t already have a copy of the fan-club records, and you haven’t heard them yet, go get them. They are a fun listen and a nice alternative to the Elvis Presley CD that you put in every year around the holidays. These records have never officially been released on CD, or in a [...]

During this past summer there was a greatly contested adn greatly publicized Beatles/Beach Boys mashup out there, Meet The Beachles. Well it looks like Brian Wilson wants to get in on the Beatles’ remixing and reinvisioning. It does look like Giles Martin may be a busy man for a while now. God Only knows if [...]

I remember reading my John Lennon and Yoko Ono books growing up, and I always looked as their stunts for peace as that simply. They were publicity stunts. In retrospect, however, I truthfully believe that they were adamant about those beliefs, and that peace could be achieved. They may have looked like buffoons at times, [...]

I know that the whole Apple vs. Apple lawsuit is now complete, and the catalog will be remastered shortly. I mean it only does make sense for the Fab Four to debut digitally online with the biggest and the best. Financially it does make sense for the two apples to work together. Whomever the Beatles [...]
