I’ve released a lot of music and I’m gonna try and post one song a day from @bandcamp.com until I’m out of songs. Might be a while. Here’s ‘Crimble Medley’ - a track that mashes up 4 Beatles tunes into one Fahey-esque folky mess. tips and reskeets appreciated. 38/?

Len Barry's song is the only record across all of Season 4 that made it onto John Lennon's jukebox (at least the one he had at the end of 65 / early 66). "1, 2, 3" may not be the greatest song but it struck with John

Fantastic write-up from Will of a fantastic gig from Robyn Hitchcock which I (Paul) was at the other week. I could listen to Robyn's in-between-song chat forever.

Robyn Hitchcock at Prohibition Recording Studios, Liverpool (23 Oct ’25)
I paid my third visit of the year to Prohibition Recording Studios to see the marvellously quirky (probably a word he hates!) Robyn Hitchcock. My ticket I’d originally thought I couldn’t attend this show as we headed off on a family holiday over half term the following day, but our flight wasn’t until the afternoon so it seemed much more achievable, such that My Beloved Wife suggested I go when I said I didn’t think I could make it.

Len Barry looks like his photo has been taken just at the point that Sam Beckett has Quantum Leapt into his body.

I'm not going to share a screengrab, but I idly clicked on one of those supposedly 4K upscaled videos of the Beatles on Youtube - Washington Coliseum 'colorized' - all done by AI. The boys become a blurry mass of shifting, stretching faces, whilst the crowd is a grey mass of auton-like horrors.

We don't do Halloween specials (though there's some macabre stuff coming up in the next ep!) so why not listen to this now 5 year old episode of Paul's novelty song podcast all about Spooky stuff, with special guest @benbaker.bsky.social off of @alfsplaining.bsky.social

A couple of decisions and chance conversations (and just too many variables falling the right way to try and list) meant that Raymond Jones became one of the most important people in the history of pop music. It's worth reading @beatlesbible.com's short interview with him.
In 2010 we interviewed Raymond Jones about the purchase of the Beatles' My Bonnie that changed music history.
"The first time I saw The Beatles I was totally blown away. I couldn't believe what I was hearing and watching."

Good day to you all!
It's 1963 and in the pages of the NME you'll find *two* number ones that didn't make the top of the now official chart. Both songs written by the same team... who could they be? Hmm?
