Came on the office here on my lunch break and I had to play it twice. Would like to crank the volume but you know, got to be respectful of the coworkers.....

Gerry Marsden passed last month, 3rd January, and now Mary Wilson.
It‘s making me feel old.

There is an old hymn written by FW Faber entitled "There's a Wideness in God's Mercy." My Scouser cousin used to sing "There's a Widnes in God's Mersey."

Rest in Peace, Ger.

While shaving, it's either WBGO for jazz or WMHT for classical--both on my Echo.

Need to find myself a good country/western station that plays stuff from at least twenty years ago. Any good suggestions? I've been playing the same Kim Richey CD for years now.

The Beatles: She Said She Said

 

[The Knize]

I'd have to add "Hey Bulldog" and and George's "Only A Northern Song" to the list of good tracks from the original release of The Yellow Submarine soundtrack. Of course, there is "All You Need Is Love" but that came out as a single previously. And on the flip of that was "Baby You're A Rich Man." Like that one a lot too!

I am probably too hard on Yellow Submarine. I did say "one of the few redeeming cuts," which gives me some cover, I suppose. "Only a Northern Song" is certainly another redeeming cut. I am generally a big Lennon fan, but "Hey Bulldog," never really appealed to me, as I know it does many. I suppose "All You Need Is Love" was big enough that I have to concede on that one, too, but it is not a fav of mine. There are a fair number of sort of in between major albums Beatles songs I do not love. I was never a big fan of Magical Mystery Tour, but from what I can tell that album has grown in stature over the years. Yellow Submarine hardly seemed worth the cost of the album back in the day. Ironic that George got two good cuts on it!

I had not heard or had forgotten that. That is sad. Gerry and the Pacemakers were great.

Ya I hear you on the Yellow Sub soundtrack. Check out the Yellow Submarine Songtrack that was released in 1999. Worth it solely for the remarkable remixing job. Give It's All Too Much a spin on headphones there

I think I'm one of 3 or 4 people on the planet who likes George Martin's orchestral score on side 2 ...

I bought the 1st Grateful Dead LP when it first came out, and dragged my future wife to a Grateful Dead concert at a small Catholic college in Louisville in 1968. Tickets were $3.50, probably less than 200 people in that gym, and they played till 4am. She married me a year later. Not Deadheads but still married.

I didn't like many Beatle songs after A Hard Days Night, but I liked that one. When I was dating my wife, I was driving a '66 Pontiac "Candlelight Cream" Le Mans with a black vinyl top. My wife still refers to that car as the Yellow Submarine. She always had a name for our cars. I never understood why.
