Informative and Insightful
Ian is the casual fan, and David is the devoted one with extensive knowledge of the Beatles’ career. Also, David’s knowledge of the Beatles’ musical peers and successors provides valuable context. Some reviewers have criticized Ian’s role. However, I think his commentary and humor serve to draw more information and insights from David. The first two episodes are difficult at times as the hosts settle into their roles and develop a rhythm (and Ian drops the constant analysis of lyrics). If you stick with it, you won’t be disappointed. I believe even devoted Beatle fans will learn new information and be inspired to think more about (or rethink) their own beliefs about this beloved band. I hope Ian and David do another music-related podcast in the future.

More reviews of Compleatly Beatles
Joined with the Please Please Me post and have looked forward to each new update. I liked the idea of just reviewing the albums in chronological order so this works for me.

Wonderful, funny dig through the catalog. It is great from the get go, but they really hit their stride from about the third ep on, and it gets bonkers excellent when they start doing two hour episodes. Can't recommend enough - thanks for your work, gents!Read full review »

I listened to the first few podcasts but couldn't be bothered to listen to anymore. One of the guys knows what he is talking about but the other, louder one hasn't a clue and ruins the podcast.Read full review »
