    SATB Special: Ribbons of Rust Book Launch with John Leckie, Sibbie O'Sullivan and Richard Mills
    2025/08/14
    Ribbons of Rust: The Beatles' Recording History in Context is this first installment of a multi-volume series, building out the history of everything The Beatles did in the recording studio to reveal the influences around them and the world they created in. I (Robert Rodriguez) am the author of or contributor to over half a dozen Beatles books, while Jerry Hammack is the creator of the five-volume Beatles Recording Reference Manual series. Both of us are award-winners as well. The book comes in standard mono(chrome) edition, richly illustrated in black and white, as well as the deluxe full colour edition. Both volumes are filed with QR codes, linking readers fo British Pathe newsreels, music and other sights and sounds of the era. The Beatles' times are brought to life thusly for a fully immersive experience. To give a proper assessment of this first joint project, we convened: two 1st-gen fans two Brits two academics two beatles authors one woman one record producer one person who worked with all four ex-Beatles beginning the year of their break-up. This all boiled down to three people: producer John Leckie (Radiohead - XTC - Stone Roses - Simple Minds - Dukes of Stratosphear - many more) Sibbie O'Sullivan (author of My Private Lennon: Explorations for a fan Who Never Screamed) Richard Mills (author of The Beatles and Fandom and the just-published The Beatles and Black Music) We also included some "civilians" who'd read the book as well. Here's what they had to say. For more info (including a "look inside" and book trailer), visit http://www.ribbonsfrust.net Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • 308: The Politics of Beatles with Candy Leonard

    308: The Politics of Beatles with Candy Leonard
    2025/07/21
    In 2014, sociologist Candy Leonard published Beatleness: How the Beatles and Their Fans Remade The World. It was a groundbreaking work, representing a serious exploration into the phenomenon of fandom and the reciprocal relationship between artist and audience, and the impact that all of it had on lives - and the world - that reverberates ever onward even today, sixty years on. Candy has twice been a guest on the show (155: 1968 and 180: "...I buried Paul...") but for this conversation, we focused on the politics of Beatles: not their personal convictions per se but what they meant fresh out of the gate - what they represented and how they were received by fans and the establishment alike. In this talk, we covered hair (as a statement) - drugs - evolution - One to One - Beatles '64 - feminism - Taylor Swift.

  • 307: Borrowed Time with Alan G. Parker

    307: Borrowed Time with Alan G. Parker
    2025/07/02
    Director Alan G. Parker's newest film is a personal expression of gratitude toward John Lennon for being a figure that helped him through some difficult years when he was growing up. Borrowed Time: Lennon's Last Decade includes interviews with dozens of figures who knew him; everyone from Aunt Mimi (archival footage) to journalists like Ray Connolly, Chris Charlesworth, and Anthony DeCurtis, plus writers like Philip Norman and Ken Womack and other figures of influence, like Tariq Ali. The result is an impressionistic portrait of John's post-Beatles years, created through the creativity that comes from working without official sanction. Parker's other work includes 2017's It Was Fifty Years Ago Today on Sgt. Pepper, plus other films and books covering punk acts including The Clash and the Sex Pistols.
