Thank you very much, thank you very much; that's the nicest thing that anyone's ever done for me….

Various ones. Village Green by The Kinks. Angel by Madonna. Did You Steal My Money by The Who (yes, I know how weird that is). Alone Again (Naturally) by Gilbert O'Sullivan. Almost anything with a catchy repetitive riff.

The only thing that disappointed me about the ending was there's no Inner Groove.

As a Beatlemaniac, I find it awesome that they even duplicate the original stereo mix.

Wait, so Seasons In The Sun was a Kingston Trio cover?

And none of them even answer.

I think that was in the works before Prince died. IIRC, the AV Club first informed me about the impending re-release of His Purplenesses' catalog, complete with bonus tracks.

I know exactly how you feel. I read the book and HATED it. (Still do.) I pledged never to watch the film, despite how many said how fantastic it was, because I thought the book was vile. (And still do.) Then, finally, about six months ago, for what reason I know not, I watched the film. And to my stunned amazement,

Had me at Yoko Ono.

It's not exactly the same, but close enough to fool me day after day. At any rate, the Church's riff (and song) is far better.

The only reason I know this duo is that I used to hear Don't Let Me Down every day on the radio station at work, and every single time that guitar riff at the beginning would sound, I'd hear it and think, "Damn, why are they playing The Church's Reptile?" And then that chick would come in with "I need ya I need ya

I love it, but I wouldn't say it was the best. The one that really sticks with me is the Christmas episode. When you start to think about it, it's probably the most horrifying.

News for you, Charlie: We're totally fucked already.

Am I the only one who wonders about the logistics of this? How tall is this 8-year-old? Could his feet reach the gas and brake pedals? If so, how could he look over the wheel to see where he was going?

I want the 27 minute version of "Helter Skelter", but it's never turned up on bootlegs, so I can't link it here.

The only person as obnoxious as an in-your-face evangelical Christian is an in-your-face hardcore atheist.

I used to own my older brother's mono version. Funny thing; for years I played it and didn't realize that it was mono. Then, when it got too scratched to play, I bought a new stereo version and barely noticed the difference.

Hey, I was there, too! And you're right, it was amazing. Of course, that was the first time he'd played it live (on that tour, I mean).

Sure it would. Just because it hasn't been bootlegged now doesn't mean it couldn't have been in the future. It's a preemptive strike.

Ken Scott's book is a marvelous read. He doesn't focus on the Beatles, but on his entire career producing Bowie and others as well.
