Lennon Canceled

“What is going on here? I am so tired of the latest assumption that Lennon was a junior member in the Lennon/McCartney relationship. In fact, I am sick and tired of the John v Paul debate, period. They were Lennon/McCartney! Or, fine, McCartney/Lennon. You want my top 12 Beatles songs, fine, you know there’s no Let It Be, or Yesterday, on it. Does that make me a horrible person? No. Moreover, I don’t think Lennon ever did anything unforgivable. (And, I suspect you folks know that, too.) But, times as they are, it’s obviously a Paul period. Fine. But, never forget the amazing influence John had on 20th (and 21st) century culture. Good grief! You want a song at a moment’s notice, or a song to sum up life’s moments: John’s your guy. John offered All You Need Is Love. Paul offered All Together Now. Please. Please Please Me, A Hard Day’s Night, Help were all on the spot purpose written songs on a deadline that are some of the greatest songs of the 20th century. And, then there’s Revolution (that all the other Beatles fought him on, endlessly), but is still seminal. Oh, and then there’s Imagine, Give Peace a Chance (which Lennon SHARED a credit with McCartney on!), that IS THE PROTEST SONG! Much better in that setting than Let It Be (which McCartney uses at nearly ALWAYS the most inappropriate moments.) Why doesn’t McCartney do Give Peace A Chance, ever? He gets the royalties on it. And, for crying out loud, Lennon wrote Grow Old With Me. Which is performed at weddings all over the world. Lennon and McCartney WERE BOTH GENIUSES. They are like Shakespeare. Why do we have to tear one down to pull one up. Lennon wasn’t that AWFUL a human being, to say the least. Why the Paul “crowd” have such a terrible inferiority complex really just says to me, “Your slip is showing” Good night.”

“February 23:
Thank you for revisiting McCartney II. Dan Rebellato was terrific. And I agree with him, All You Horseriders is a riot. A highlight of the project for me. It was nice to hear a fan of the album talk about it. Thanks, and keep up the great work! Love the podcast.

“If you want to learn about The Beatles, even if you think you read everything, and laugh your heart loud, even if you think you heard every joke on earth. This is a mix between college radio and intimate reflexion on the greatest band in history. But most of all, it’s a about sharing good...”Read full review »
