Apple licensing Beatles to whole new generation.

Being a Beatle fan can be a bit of a catch-22.  We love the music, we love the boys, we love the hysteria, but somehow some of us complain a bit that they are/were so heavily marketed.  Well folks, the marketing machine is firing up yet again.
In the past, we have seen Beatles images plastered [...]

Ringo’s dream of a comeback crumble after insulting Liverpool.

Ringo has had a rough go of things as of late.  He had made offending remarks regarding the town of his birth a few months ago on national television.  The city was in a furvor.  Public reaction has been pointed at the ex-Beatle.  Beatles’ themed topiary has been vandalized, and there has been a public [...]

Paul McCartney To Release Book About Late Wife

In my opinion, there’s no better way to see the 1960’s rock scene than through the eyes of Linda McCartney.  There are few photographers who knew their subjects so intimately, and shot them as people.  It’s weird, you really get to feel the people in her photos.  You get a true sense of them as [...]

Dhani Harrison tops rich list of Britain’s young music millionaires.

Dhani should start a new group.  They can call themselves the “Young Music Millionaires.”  It really sounds like a rap super group.  It rolls off the tongue.  I think he’d find the humor in that. 
For someone who’s father preached and professed about a humble life, Dhani seems to have a good head on his sholder.  [...]

Is Paul McCartney Getting Married Again?

There are rumors, and then there are rumors.  WOW.  It seems that the tabloid press is jumping all over the fact that Paul is dating again.  It seems he’s ring shopping, but does anyone really believe that he’s really thinking about taking the marriage plunge again?  I really don’t hink so.  Maybe he’s just buying [...]

There is a scuffle going in the collector’s community. It appears that a Beatles’ expert is being sued over alleged forgeries.  This article brings to light these allegations, and illustrates how the memorabilia selling community has nearly painted itself into a corner.  It seems that the authenticators are themselves selling their itmes.  Indeed, it is [...]

Paul McCartney Wants Heather Mills To Join Him On Tour

Well this news, while weird, bodes well for Beatle fans.  News reports like this only help to solidify the speculations that Paul McCartney will be hitting the road in the near future.
With the spector of his recent divorce hanging over him it looks like Paul will be exorcising some demons through music.  We all know [...]

Tony Palmer on Phil Spector, John Lennon, and how he televised the revolution + VIDEO.

I didn’t even know that such a documentary on the times, the swinging 60’s was in the works.  It looks like it came out a long time ago.  Truly looks like a great time capsule piece.  Based on this video clip alone it looks like a great companion piece to all of those concert DVD’s, [...]

Sony keen for the Beatles to go digital.

Aside from stating the obvious here, it seems that Sony is just as excited about releasing The Beatles into the digital realm as the fans are to receive them.  I mean, of course.  The record company would get quite a windfall once the coveted group is available in the digital world.

As fans, we are relegated [...]
