The Beatles were consistently constructed as symbolic avatars for the social and cultural shifts of their time and place, even while they were still in the midst of that time and place. Part 1: Intro In the space of a single month in June of 1967, the Beatles released their technicolor magnum opus, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, and premiered their signature hippie anthem "All You Need...
26. Trick Daddy - Thug Matrimony: Married To The Streets (Slip-N-Slide Records/Atlantic Records, 2004) Trick’s made so many good albums, but this is the one that has a perfect balance of filthy sex raps (“J.O.D.D.”), fight music (“Fuckin’ Around”), bass jams (“Down Wit Da South”), pop singles (“Sugar”) and adorably gruff inspirational songs...

Someone on Amazon is selling a Beatles compilation album - remastered in mono. "From Please Please Me to the White Album , all the original Beatles mixes are represented here in full, glorious mono!

From 1968-1969, the Beatles went from being a fractious group to a merely fractured one. However, along the way, as they headed off in their different directions, they managed to come up with some of their most enduring material. The Beatles (1968) Once upon a time, there were two sides to every album. For “The White Album", there were actually two albums. The Beatles -- which was the original...
The Yellow Submarine exists. It’s not a mirage, or a mind game. Someone, inspired by the Beatles, built the Yellow Submarine, and it exits to this day. Yellow Submarine, the movie, is a great, great film for children and adults, and, in its own way, is as good a Beatles movie as A Hard Day’s Night. Released in November of 1968, the same month that The White Album came out, Yellow Submarine...

The Beatles' "Hey Jude" is one of those songs like "Stairway to Heaven," "Satisfaction" or "Like a Rolling Stone" that is so ingrained in the public consciousness that it's impossible to hear it objectively. But a couple weeks ago I picked up the freshly remastered version of the Fab compilation Past Masters , which features "Hey Jude" and heard the...
By Alex Schaaf By the time The Beatles reached The Beatles, more commonly known as The White Album, they had already amassed nine studio albums, and were well settled into the position of “the greatest band on earth.” They took a bit of a left turn with The White Album; offering up a sprawling double [...]
Highly Recommended The Movie: The Beatles: Composing Outside the Beatles: Lennon and McCartney 1967-1972 is that rarest of independently made rockumentaries: It's actually very good. Smart, incisive and enthusiastic, the documentary is invaluable viewing for diehard Beatles buffs -- and informative for the casual fan. Clocking in at 137 minutes, Composing Outside the Beatles drills deep into the solo...
It really only happens once in a while: you see or hear something, and your life changes instantly. Some angle, some form of light, some way of being-in-the-world has been released to you, and all the wonder and the joy that goes unnoticed is alive again, and in your face. I’m talking about works of art that you don’t need to sit with, that you don’t have to digest, that don’t...

Plus when a band has covered Talking Heads’ Remain in Ligh t, Velvet Underground’s Loaded and The Beatles’ White Album , you have to admit, at the very least, that they have good...
