A funny thing happened to Let It Be. It became one of the most enjoyable releases of 2003, Let It Be Naked. Kudos to the team that put it together. Side two is one of my favorite Beatle album sides. LIBN is easily one of my favorite Beatle albums. It succeeds as a musical bridge from the White Album to Abbey Road.

mebbe it was a card table. joan war fragend studiert pataphysical wissenschaft im heim. following is commentary 230:1 from charactercounts.org A TRIBUTE TO GEORGE HARRISON: Before he was 30, George Harrison had what he and most young men and women want most - incredible wealth and enormous fame. "Everybody dreams of being rich and famous," he said. But once he became rich and famous he found it profoundly unsatisfying. His life was not only hollow but fraught with endless anxiety and anguish caused by bitter disputes with former friends, betrayals by trusted associates and a total lack of privacy. "This wasn't it," he realized. In fact, he came to realize that the bounty of superstardom - an endless waterfall of money, attention and sex - impeded rather than provided the peace of mind and the sense of fulfillment he sought. His conclusion: "It doesn't matter how much money or property you've got unless you are happy in your heart." He explored eastern religions and adopted Hindu principles and what he called Krishna Consciousness. He continued to pursue his music career sporadically but with an unusual sense of dignity and purpose. His songs were his sermons, his work his legacy and both were infused with his commitment to peace, love and the search for God. He was the first major rock star to turn his celebrity into an instrument of social justice and compassion. He was the first to bring together fellow artists in a communal effort to raise funds for a worthy cause - in this case for the impoverished and oppressed people of Bangladesh. He was not a saint by any means, but he was a good man trying to be better. And that may be as good a legacy as anyone can expect.

'zactly. 'taint been done yet. and how many california recall songs are there anyway. 'zactly. well, still got the whole summer in front of me, but other than that all caught up and in real time. guess what was getting listened to friday. "wimps" chris carter

Hi, Chris! Let It Be... Naked on 97.1 before KRTH, okay? Yeah, thematic backround music is a great idea & how 'bout showcasing some of George Martin's music of Beatle tunes along with the score from Help! & HDN? Love those instrumentals. My recent fave is I Am The Walrus from Anthology 2. I can't seem to get enough of it. Check out the intro & the falsely timed vocal when John says, "yellow matter custard." Ringo kicks & I love the raw guitar work. Spin it for us? Maybe you could do a "Walrus" anthology as there are 3 commercial versions now that I know of (MMT, Rarities, A2). Beatles Forever! Keep it up, Chris! Good job! I especially like your BWTB 6 degrees of separation... Next you gotta do listener's birthdays & where they were in Beatles history. Y'know, like if someone was born in '67, that's when Sgt Pepper was released. But you knew that. :^)

good point, kyri!! i put all the commercials on mute. i can't stand them. i think they are often awful, especially the one you note for the very reason you note (power to the people!). what is NOT awful, however, is the show content; my favorites this week are: i've got a feeling (let it be naked), be here now, horse to the water, handle with care (i can't wait to get the concert for george cd!!!!), & others i'm sure i'm forgetting at the moment!!

Hey, Chris: Enjoyed the new photos in the photo gallery. And, enjoyed a taste of "Let It Be...Naked" this morning. Thanks. Can't wait for football season to end so we can get back to a full 5 hours of Beatle music - but you have done a great job with the condenced shows over the past couple of months. Keep up the great work.

Dear Beatle fans,Im I the only one offended that 97.1 continues to run the drunk drivers commercial,"helping the community by putting drunk drivers back on the road" COME ON!! Lennons mother+many other innocent people are killed by a drunk drivers every day. My Sunday mornings would not be complete without Chris +the Beatle show but lets get the DUI advertisement off the air. We all shine on.

DEAR CHRIS, 'ELLO! 'OW R YA? WELL,I HOPE U LIKE MY BRITISH ACCENT.LOL. NE WAYS, I LOVE THE NEW PICTURES IN THE PHOTO GALLERY AND I LOVE THE WEBSITE'S NEW LOOK. YOU'RE DOING A GREAT JOB. KEEP IT UP! I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU DOING THE SHOW! I TRY TO GET ALL OF MY FRIENDS TO LISTEN TO IT, BUT BEING THE TYPICAL TEENAGERS THAT THEY ARE, THEY HAVE SOME STRANGE LIKING FOR HIP HOP. I HATE IT QUITE FRANKLY AND MANY OLDER PEOPLE THINK THAT IT IS ODD THAT A 15 YR. OLD GIRL CAN LOVE THE BEATLES AS MUCH AS I DO. BUT I DO! SO, THANK YOU! AND I CAN'T WAIT 'TILL WE GO BACK TO THE REGULAR HOURS. K BYE. LOVE U ALL, BEATLE JESS

yay. the time on my watch is finally right. so, if you go outside and look up at the moon south by southwest around 8:30 p.m. you may see mars hovering above the moon. it is complacent and seems that the moon and mars are all right tonight. i'm sure that venus is floating happily somewhere around the universe. our city - indeed the country - has never seen anything like this young lass from liverpool. ladies and gentlemen, the silver beatrice.

THE (ONLY) THING THAT KEEPS YOU HEADS ABOVE THE REST OF THE BEATLE'S SHOWS IS THAT (YOU) PLAY SONGS THAT MOST CAN'T HEAR EVERY DAY. UNLESS (YOU) HAVE RUN OUT OF NEW (OLD) MATERIAL...WHICH I DOUBT...I HAVE (HEARD) EVERYTHING IN YOUR LIBRARY AT LEAST TWICE. I (KNOW) THERE IS MORE OLD MATERIAL THAT YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED. I'M (WAITING) FOR YOU TO GET TO IT (NOW). I'M AN IMPATIENTLY WAITING (BEATLE KEVIN)!!!

hi, chris, my wee little opinion is that the background music is lovely! but can we have it match thematically perhaps? example: there was a wonderful Harisong Beatlewood set bumpered out by Michelle. i was like...okay! a little paul, now, hm... secondly, you are dead right: Fish On The Sand is single worthy. spin it for us more often, eh? i especially loved that rough mix. that's all for now! take it away, wanna hear you play..

Posted On: 11/2/2003
Hey gang...To reply to your questions about the music between songs in Beatlewood ...that's Jason Faulkner (ex - Jellyfish; The Greys )it's from a disc called "Bedtime w/ the Beatles"...the other more swingin` instrumentals were from The George Martin Orchestra...Question: Should I use MORE background music while I read back the songs? I really like the way it works in during Beatlewood. Just wondering....Oh listen next week (NOV. 9th) as I'll be spinning a little Let It Be...................................................................................Naked...

the california forest fires are coating everything with ash. now i still live in a corner of the world where kids play boisterously in the street, i leave the keys in my car and the door to my house unlocked, unless i am home of course. so it was quite surreal walking down the street that was eerily silent with the ash dust billowing up with every step and the whole block deserted except for a little boy and a little girl playing with matchbox cars on the curb. just like one of those end of the world movies where no one survives except the two children blissfully playing at the end of the street oblivious to the happenings around them. then a piece of ash flew in my eye and i started cussing the grit in my eye and the debris on my front porch when i suddenly stopped and said you dork. you should thank God that this is all that happened. so right there i said thank you God. my heart so goes out to everyone who has been affected by this horribly tragic fire. may God be with them. so i was telling someone that paul mccartney said that all these rap songs take their bass groove from the swampy one he came up with for come together and therefore i thought that might make him the god poppa of rock and she said well, then, that means blondie must be the god moma of rap. ahh....but the little girls understand.

just stumbled across an old paul mccartney interview and found it interesting he admits that the bass for i saw her standing there is straight from the 1961 chuck berry song called i'm talking about you. paul says: "i played exactly the same notes as he did and it fitted our number perfectly. even now, when i tell people about it, i find few of them believe me. therefore i maintain that a bass riff doesn't have to be original." and the swiping doesn't stop there as he continues about come together: "i laid that bass line down which very much makes the mood. it's actually a bass line that people now use very often in rap records. if it's not a sample, they use that riff. but that was my contribution to that". now i always thought that paul was the mac daddy of modern rock & roll but now it looks like he is the godfather of rap too.

Mr. Silver may have to rethink his pre-empting of BWTB with football. Listening to KRTH tonight(10/10/03), they have apparently realized the popularity of the Fab Four and are making the most of it. They have significantly increased the amount of Beatle music on their playlist and are advertising the new un-Spectorized album to be premiered soon on KRTH!!! Yeah, Go Chargers (yawn)!!!!

Chris and his band are mentioned again in Rolling Stone! I saw this today in the newsletter I receive from Rollingstone.com: DRAMARAMA, who earlier this year reunited after a nine-year break, have re-recorded the DEAD KENNEDY's politically-charged classic "California Uber Alles," with a new set of anti-ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER lyrics reflecting the group's embarrassment at the state of affairs in their adopted home of California. "Why is he a more viable candidate than Gary Coleman?" frontman JOHN EASLEY told Rolling Stone. "It's like you see this hero on TV, therefore he must be the hero that can save our state."

i apologize - the question marks should be apostrophe or quotation marks actually. since the beatles and many other british bands were influenced by the blues, i feel compelled to make sure everyone who checks this message board is aware that pbs is doing a week long history of the blues starting at 9pm sunday, sept 28, following this music style from africa to present. the episodes are directed by noted directors such as martin scorsese, clint eastwood and mike figgis - who as a youngster played in a 1960's blues band that inclueded future roxymusic star bryan ferry as lead singer. "Good animal activists around the world might think, 'Oh, God, we have lost a very powerful voice when we lost Linda.' Well, we have. But my voice is there now and I'm going to try to use it.

Does anyone know why the 1964 and 1965 "tickets" embossed on the cover of the Hollywood Bowl LP have incorrect days? That is, the dates are appropriate but they both say "SAT." when those dates fell on "SUN." Was it to mess up potential memorabilia counterfeiters?

I loved that AM Beatle station, except that it was in that not-so-good AM reception ;) I vividly remember the last fleeting moments of their last broadcast.

Hey Beatle Tim - that 24 hr. Beatle station (KIEV AM?) was really something... I miss that too. Did you hear the closing show with Martin Lewis hosting? It was probably the best moment the show had in it's short lifespan when he kept trying to talk and play music in "protest" right up until the end when his voice just cuts to blank air and a few quiet seconds later the silence is broken as "Bali-Hi" (from the musical "South Pacific")comes droning in...

Remember the whole thing about Paul being dead? Well there is a guy--pretty interesting--who delved into the rumor that Paul may have passed on and a replacement was used. He quotes songs as vidence. Pretty cool. The site is www.rgarypatterson.com. I love Breakfast With the Beatles and I hope Jack Silver and/or Bob Moore decides to keep this show going on...forever. Remember the Beatles: 24 hours 7 days a week station? Well, after they were gone, I started to get withdraws and I got my fix here!

Met all the members of the band, and watched as rich people bid $5000.00 for the Sharpie that Paul autographed a ticket stub with! The play list was great -- included "A Great Day", "Calico Skies" and a rockin' duet w/JT on Two of Us. Were any BWTB fans there?

Nicky - no, actually I was answering Charlotte about the funny cover versions of Beatle tunes she mentioned... I missed the part of this past Sunday's show you refer to....? Not sure what that "bummper" music was? I am hoping the new "Naked-Let it Be" will include some of the previously "bootleg"-only tunes like "The Walk" and "Teddy Boy" with John's sarcastic interludes... Fun stuff.

Posted by NICKY KNIGHT

Sun King, are you talking about the bummper music during Beatlewood on 9-21? It sounded great. Can someone tell me what this was. Do you guys think the forthcoming naked cd will be kind of like the Glynn Johns mix only in stereo? Or something different.

Some of those Beatle covers were on the George Martin-produced CD 'In My Life' which just came out a few years ago... The Shatner recording is a real golden oldie from the early 70's...

Hey Chris I love your show, and it's awful that it has to get cut back two hours. I know awhile back you did a special feature on Beatle songs covered by other people. Recently, I read an article listing the worst Beatles covers, with William Shatner and "Lucy in the Sky" beating out Jim Carrey's "I am the Walrus" and Goldie Hawn's atrocious "A Hard Day's Night".when you get your five hours back, could you please devote a few minutes to playing snippets of these songs? I'm currently trying to find them online, the ones I've found so far are hilarious. Celia Cruz has a version of "Obladi Oblada" in Spanish, which was pretty interesting. I'd love to hear these cover songs one day, it would be so funny! thanks chris, you're awesome!

CHRIS - where can one find a copy of the Paul McCartney & Johnny Cash tune you played? And when are you going to play Harrison's "That Is All" from LITMW, or Harry Nilsson's version?

see if we can work on it bandit. oh my. paul carrack tickled the keyboards so much, the elephants giggled their trunks off. colin hay had so many guitars, it seemed he was changing guitars during guitar changes. looks like the only instrument mark rivera did not play was the kazoo, unless sheila e's lips qualify then all the bases got covered. as ringo! would say "sheeler e" was shredding drumsticks like a bunny mowing through clover. and is john waite really that good or does he just know how to make it look easy. i thought i had seen it all when ringo! drug greg lake along the last go round. but. i reckon when you're one half of the greatest rhythm section in the world, you figure out how to pick the other half. john waite and tommy shaw recently helped warren zevon record knockin' on heaven's door and it seems heaven opened the door and now there is a werewolf in heaven - one of the fabulous songwriters to emerge in the 1970's los angeles music scene. so it was nice to see rivera bring tommy up to join in on with a little help from my friends. but the highlight of the evening was when mark hudson also joined in on friends crooning along with john waite. now if we could just coax a few more roundheads up there for a full on ringo! retrospective. heaven knows the catalogue is there. mccartney did a benefit for landmines and yoko is repeating her 1960's piece where people get to snip off bits of her dress until she is nekked as a benefit for piece so maybe ringo! could do a one off benefit. you know, the alex center in orange county is the only facility on the west coast to assist children who have suffered traumatic brain injury - and, i hear the pacific ampitheatre is still open....... you know how sometimes you see an l.a. based band in another place or state and then you see them again when they swing through the southland and a lot of times there is just this extra spark. well, it was certainly there at the universal ampitheatre last weekend. maybe they should rename themselves the all - sparrkle band.

B-Side Player, regarding your question as to whether or not there will be a Liverpool Days convention this year: I read on a Liverpool Days message board on Yahoo! Groups that there might be one sometime next year. Let's keep our fingers crossed! (By the way, the group is called LiverpoolDays-BeatlesConvention. It isn't very active as there aren't very many members, but it does have a good photo section with photos from the last Liverpool Days convention.)

I went to the concert Saturday night and loved it! I loved Ringo and all the band members and loved that they all got to do their own wonderful music. During the last song, Tommy Shaw came out and played guitar and another man came out and sang backup. Do you know who that was? He was very nicely dressed up, kind of like an old time gangster! The concert was much better than I expected it to be. Glad that we went. Take care!

Hey Chris, your show was great today, even though the times were all screwed up. I had to wake up so early, but it was worth it. You have an awesome show and I love how you find alternate versions of our favorite songs. Thanks for introducing me to a ton of Beatle and solo Beatle songs I never had heard of before. Who went to the Ringo concert? I thought it was so fantastic, I've never seen a Beatle before in my 15 years of being alive, it was awesome! I screamed so hard, especially when he came out in the beginning, I was just thinking, "OH MY GOD IT'S RINGO! BEATLE BEATLE BEATLE!" It's so exciting to see people you worship (the Beatles are my only religion). Keep up the good work Chris you're doing really well with the time constraints!

you will notice that carter features gone troppo prominently in his publicity still just underneath the most rocking wings album - venus and mars - which is under certainly the 'grooviest' beatles album - yellow submarine. gone troppo is the best george harrison album. sure, we would like a whole record of songs like badge; as gharrisongirl would say: "*polishes badge*", but gone troppo is about what makes george harrison happy and we should look at his happiness, not ours. i submit we have already benefitted greatly from the choices harrison has made. he was at a special point in his life; i have been told that when a person finds the love of their life and has a baby, it changes their perspective and george harrison had recently experienced both. when he was a teenager, he used to stand in the back of the room and emulate john lennon when john's band was playing. when lennon got older and had a baby, he didn't release any solo material for five years and you notice george harrison did not release any solo material for five years after gone troppo. the clues were imminent in the previous releases where george seems to lament the people who want him to follow the current musical trends just to get a hit by blasting those who want 'blood from a clone'. he feigns 'instant amnesia' when being pushed into that corner and flat out states "all i got to be is, be happy". the dust of the beatles had settled, he had proven himself astoundingly as a solo artist and had just recently lost his childhood friend john lennon. it seems apparent the world was getting a little crazy for him and he just wanted to step back and enjoy his life, his love for Olivia and his new child. he even writes as much on a gone troppo song: "my life's been so many ways too much darkness gets me crazed all around us people fight christ i'm looking for some light inside your love wake up my love and let it in". gone troppo may not have the most catchy tunes or insightful lyrics but it just has the feeling of relaxation all the way through it. he brings in other singers like willie greene to handle some vocals for an airy texture. gone troppo is just pure george, and by communicating that feeling of relaxed happiness puts me in the same mood when i spin it on the turntable. and, it is the only record i have seen that gives instruction on how to mix cement. so, since everyone else is focusing on which overgrown hormone can chase a pigskin down the gridiron faster than another overgrown hormone, why don't we just sneak a peek at some of the observations george harrison has commented over the years, eh. "i don't listen to anything, and i don't read the papers, and i don't watch tv, and i don't go to concerts. and so my music, it doesn't matter if i did it 20 years ago or if i did it tomorrow. it doesn't go with trends. my trousers don't get wider and tighter every six months. my music just stays what it is, and that's the way i like it." "i'm a tidy sort of bloke, i don't like chaos. i keep the records in the record rack, the tea in the tea caddy and the pot in the pot box." "can you, will you, smoke this thing? do so and we will talk about the rest...about peace in our time...about a world which none of understands, about..." "there's high, and there's high, and to get really high - i mean so high that you can walk on the water, that high - that's where i'm goin'." "i think the popular music has gone truly weird. it's either cutesy-wutesy or it's the hard, nasty stuff." "it was like having diarrhoea and not being allowed to go to the toilet. i think a lot of people were surprised to see, 'oh, he writes songs, too.' " "hippies are so phoney and fake." "i don't wear small shoes or tight pants that squash your balls." "the beatles saved the world from boredom." "life is like a raindrop on a lotus leaf. everybody realises that you are either a very lucky person or you're not." "my life belongs to the lord krishna now. i'm just a servant of krishna. i've never been so humble in all my life, and i feel great." "with our love we could save the world." wow. all this from a guy who once proclaimed his favorite music was "hillbilly" and his favorite type of girls were "friendly" - and good buds with jersey boy gary wright, to boot! and here's a shout out to the all-starrs and a quote from ringo! "the trouble with leaving your feet on the ground is you never get to take your pants off." well, then why not one from paul. "the commotion doesn't bother us anymore. it's come to be like working in a bell factory. you don't hear the bells after a while." oh, whatever. here's john. "life is what happens when you're busy making other plans."

Hey, Chris: Happy Belated Birthday. I hope the day was filled with love, joy, happiness, and good music! You're the ultimate host of the greatest Beatles show in L.A. - now it's just too bad that starting this Sunday we'll barely get to scratch the surface with Beatles music. I'm really upset about this three hour thing. Nobody cares about football, but KLSX will see that soon enough in the ratings when after 10 a.m. the ratings drop. O.k. - enough ranting. Just wanted to wish you a very, very happy birthday. Ram On!

the following was recently posted to the isle of bute message forum: "A teacher gave her fifth grade class an assignment to get their parents to tell them a story with a moral to it. The next day the kids came back and ne (sic) by one began telling their stories. Most of them were the usual "Don't put all your eggs in one basket," or "don't count your chickensbefore they're hatched" variety until the teacher asked little Michael to tell his story. "My daddy told me this story about my Aunt Karen," he began. "Aunt Karen was a flight engineer in Desert Storm and her plane got hit. She had to bail out over enemy territory and all she had was 2 bottles of whiskey, a machine gunand a machete.She drank the whiskey on the way down so it wouldn't break and then she landed right in the middle of 100 enemy troops! She killed seventy of them with the machine gun until she ran out of bullets, then she killed twenty more with the machete till the blade broke,and then she killed the last ten with her bare hands!" Good heavens," said the horrified teacher, "what kind of moral did your daddy tell you from that horrible story?" "Stay the hell away from Aunt Karen when she's been drinking!" source: http://www.isle-of-bute.com/htdocs/dcforum/DCForumID31/48.html BRING ON THE ALL-STARRS! ! ! ! !

well, i never thought football would give me the answer but now that b2b is 7-10 am, think i'll throw my hat in gloria's ring and stay up all night too and just wait until the show is over before bashing the head on the pillow (going to sleep according to this british fellar i met). do it half the time already anyway. see ya'll on the town. maybe we could reverse the rock show and beatlewood so that actually beatlewood could lullaby us to sleep in the 9 o'clock hour. ha, ha. and, red rose gurl/girl. really, say what you feel. that is what this message board is here for. and, of course, EVERYTHING BEATLES!! again, thank you jack for your support. but, really, your beliefs are the only thing that no one can take from you. your integrity is yours alone and makes you special. the weather changes and maybe beliefs and tastes do also. please stay true to yours. maybe that is where the inner light, internal happiness resides however i merely surmise. maybe one could ask the bingstah* - someone who has been down many roads and is in that show (because i) haven't got a clue. and, p.s., now that we galloped clean through summer to the last sunday, i couldn't help but reminesce - how do you spell reminisce. get the funk & wagnalls. funk you. bumblebees seem to like flowers. so heard the san ferry anne/dreamboat annie triumverate and it just drifted back to those sweet summer smells on the shore, albeit, a different shore. and yet, it sounded so retro - like maybe last year. say, that's some nifty beatlewood editing there mikey. is what i hear true that the monkees have more hit records than a bunch of other groups combined like the righteous brothers and the temptations who also did not write their own songs but no one will let the monkees in the rock and roll hall of fame. that's just custard.

Cut the Show short for football on RADIO? WHO listens to football on RADIO? Sounds like its time to jump ship and move to a station more appreciative of the popularity of the show and, more importantly, a station which airs ads a little more in keeping with the spirit and mixed audience (kids included) of the show--a little more Love and a lot less Viagra!

Please let the powers that be at KLSX know how unhappy I am that our wonderful show will be reduced to just three hours during football season (and three very early hours when a lot of people are asleep). It's really a bad move by the station since BWTB is one of the highest rated radio shows in L.A., and is the highest rated Beatles show. Now at 10 a.m. I will be switching my radio away from KLSX and will be forced to listen to a lesser quality Beatles show. I think there are more than enough opportunities out there for people to listen to or watch football. We don't need more football! But, Sundays with BWTB is like a morning without sunshine, a day without coffee, a sky without stars - it's just not right!

Basically I surfed in this afternoon to thank ya for playing the excellent SUICIDE� You played it, like, 10 minutes after I hung some new Sinatra artwork in my apartment. That was spooky. I liked it!

Hey Chris, I love your show. Great music and insight. Please play "Oh My LOve" by John Lennon for Laura's birthday. I think it is one of the most beautiful love songs ever written. My house got burglarized this last week and Imagine was in my CD player. Now the only version I have of that song is on wonsaponatime (which might be missing too)-do have any other cool versions? Please dedicate it to Laura. Thanks, Joey

DEAR CHRIS, I AM A VERY BIG BEATLE FAN. I LOVE THEIR MUSIC. I FIND IT GREAT THAT THERE ARE SO MANY BEATLE SHOWS ON SUNDAYS..I ONLY WISH THEY COULD BE ON EVERY DAY. TO GET TO MY POINT, BEFORE I DISCOVERED MANY OF THE OTHER SHOWS, I LISTENED TO YOUR SHOW EVERY WEEK AND I HAVE DECIDED TO STAY AWAY FROM IT. WHEN I LISTEN TO YOUR SHOW, I ONLY LISTEN TO HEAR THE MUSIC. I LIKE THE MUSIC YOU PLAY, BUT I DON'T LIKE HOW YOU PRESENT THE SHOW, FIRST OFF YOU PLAY TOO MUCH NON-BEATLE MUSIC...I STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH YOU DOING SUCH A THING BECAUSE THE SHOW IS CALLED BREAKFAST WITH THE BEATLES. I ALSO DISLIKE THE SHOW BECAUSE YOU DON'T SOUND LIKE YOU WANT TO DO THE SHOW. YOU DON'T SOUND LIKE YOU ARE ENTHUSIASTIC TOWARDS HAVING THE HONOR TO DO THE SHOW. I HOPE YOU TAKE THESE MINOR COMPLAINTS INTO TRYING TO IMPROVE THE SHOW. I ALSO HOPE YOU DO NOT TAKE THEM PERSONALLY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

"Thanks For The Memory" Written by Ralph Rainger and Leo Robin (c) 1937 (renewed 1964) Paramount Music Corporation Thanks for the memory Of candlelight and wine, castles on the Rhine The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River Line How lovely it was! Thanks for the memory Of rainy afternoons, swingy Harlem tunes And motor trips and burning lips and burning toast and prunes How lovely it was! Many's the time that we feasted And many's the time that we fasted Oh, well, it was swell while it lasted We did have fun and no harm done And thanks for the memory Of sunburns at the shore, nights in Singapore You might have been a headache but you never were a bore So thank you so much. Thanks for the memory Of sentimental verse, nothing in my purse And chuckles when the preacher said "For better or for worse" How lovely it was Thanks for the memory Of lingerie with lace, Pilsner by the case And how I jumped the day you trumped my one-and-only ace How lovely it was! We said goodbye with a highball Then I got as "high" as a steeple But we were intelligent people No tears, no fuss, Hooray! For us So, thanks for the memory And strictly entre-nous, darling how are you? And how are all the little dreams that never did come true?

Hey there - we all loved and miss Deirdre but that's no reason to blast our current host! The traditional releases are great and are even better appreciated when interspersed with the rarities.

Hey Mustard Man....First off I thought hearing (The Beatles FAVORITE artist) Harry Nilsson on Breakfast with The Beatles was great!!! The Frank Sinatra song to Ringo's wife (w/ Beatles in the lyrics!) is one of the rarest Beatle items EVER....I thank Chris for giving us the chance to hear it...and as far as your set selection of: SHE LOVES YOU, A HARD DAYS NIGHT, YESTERDAY, I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND, HEY JUDE, LET IT BE and THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD ...is so average it will be the closest you will ever get to having your own radio show...Mr. Carter has 5 hours to fill every week and he NEVER lets us down with his shows....Deirdre O'Donahue would LOVE knowing the show is in good hands and FYI Mustardhead > Deirdre played Harry too!!!!

Mean Mr. Mustard, You're entitled to your own opinion and I should accept that. Sorry if I was harsh. Guess I felt bad for Chris having to take all that critism when he has been working his a___ off to give us a great show each Sunday. We just disagree. Beatles Forever!

Chris, Mean Mr.Mustard has issues. I don't think you talk so much. I think you are the perfect D.J. for this show. Your passion for the Beatles is very much appreciated and I dig the alternate versions. I also enjoy when you give a brief history of the song. We've heard the originals for 39 years. The alternates are so refreshing. Mono's, 5.1 DVD mixes and all.Are you able to do more of those mixes? You are doing the best. Hope Mean Mr. M. moves far away. Take care, Beatle Randy

Love hearing those things that I can't just play on a CD at home. You have an amazing collection of rarities and I'm glad you share it with the world. I also love hearing you share about your family, and hearing from other listeners and guests. It truly feels like one big Beatle Family. Keep up the excellent work, Chris.

Hey chris , great show on Sunday as always. I am curious as to why you and so many other good Beatle fans find " Silly Love Songs " so objectionable. My parents used to always play the " Wings Greatest Hits " tape when I was growing up so I have always liked the song and was sort of stunned to find it regarded as like some unliestenable Rick Astley song in Beatle circles. Message for Mr. Mustard : You are Clear Channel 's target audience. Why all the vitriol ? Double up on the Prozac and set your pre set to 101.1 .

Beatle Chris- Unlike you- I need my notes with me or I make mistakes once in awhile. Mine yesterday was to say you haven't played the "GEORGE" song on RUBBER SOUL...I "MEANT" the "GEORGE" song on the "HELP!" album. The "MEAN MR. MUSTARD" GUY "IS" mean....but he's pickin' on the wrong guy when he gets nasty with Chris Carter!!! Like I said in previous e-mail: "I don't "always" agree with your play list- BUT- YOU "ARE" THE BOSS- and you "DO" an overall "GREAT" JOB!!! Keep Up the great work!!!

Hey Chris.. Great show. On your on-line poll question about signing a petition to ask Capitol Records to remaster the Beatles catalog, how about rewording the possible answers to be--- YES CHRIS I WOULD. THE ALBUMS SOUND OK BUT THE BOOKLETS NEED TO BE GREATLY EXPANDED. LET'S GET BOTH THE SOUND AND PACKAGING UP TO SNUFF. NO THEY SOUND JUST FINE AND THIS IS THEY WAY THE BEATLES WANT THEM RELEASED. WHO ARE WE TO SAY DIFFERENTLY. And Chris, how about this poll question. If they remaster them, can we get both the stereo and cool mono mix of each album all on one CD as other bands have done?

Deidre O'Donahue is rolling over in her grave. Can you play at least one show without talking so f---king much. And stop the "mono" insanity. You are obsessed! No one cares about mono except you (and possibly George Martin). And enough with the theme b.s. ... just play the great songs. No one cares how the songs were "birthed" and no one wants to hear Harry Nilsson or Frank Sinatra on the Beatles program. Just play the classics. Here's a novel concept... play SHE LOVES YOU, A HARD DAYS NIGHT, YESTERDAY, I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND, HEY JUDE, LET IT BE and THE LONG AND WINDING ROAD all in one show. Not the live, demo, special mono remix or alternate version, but the real released version that we all know and love.

No one is impressed that you seem to have a bottomless treasure trove of outtakes and rarities. We'll just take your word for it. But deep down Chris I lust for you...oh I'm sorry...anyway... Just play more classics for a change.

And keep the morons OFF THE AIR -- it's great you take requests from listeners, but don't waste valuable airtime putting 6-year-olds on the air requesting their "favorite song" (yeah, right) when you could be playing more Beatles. How about dedicate a 15-20 minute segment playing requested album sides. At least that would shut you up for a few minutes....

Also- I remember you promising an old guy from a foreign country that you would play "MUNKBERRY MOON DELIGHT"- not only by the BEATLES- but by somebody else...I don't recall hearing the other version. As Paul would say, Chris- "YOU'RE GREAT!"

Hey Chris; Is there by chance a way that you could email me with who the piano player was on the Frank Sinatra "The lady is a champ" session. My co-producer Michael Sherwood's father Bobby Sherwood played Frank's sidekick and Piano player in the film "The lady is a tramp". He archives everything of his father's for his fan base. Also, how can I obtain a copy of this recording? Even an MP3 would be great. Could you email it to me? Hopefully so, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Chris, did you hear that David Bowie is doing a cover of George Harrison's "Try Some,Buy Some"? Will be on his upcoming album, Reality. Would be great to hear it (Beatles version, of course) if you have it... p.s. Did you ever find "Badge"???

Dear Chris, I am a huge Beatle fan and I used to listen to the show every week(until I started working) I love listening to the great music. Anyways, I was wondering what happened to the guy that used to do the Beatle news? Anyways, I was wondering,have you've ever seen a movie called Two Of Us? I just saw it, if you have what do you think of it?

welcome to tuesday and such a beautiful day it is. i think they call a foggy full moon in late summer something like a farmer's moon - just don't know why i think that. and, a little left of topic - EVERYTHING BEATLES ! ! , not saying that neil young is just window dressing, but, mr. stephen stills just showed the pacific amphiteater tonight that crosby stills & nash can rock the blocks off. quite so.

Gee, Wurm, you said a mouthful. Who knows if Martin reads this board, but no matter--he probably doesn't give a flying you-know-what about what you or anyone else thinks or says about him. I've attended the Mods and Rockers festival--which he produces and hosts--each year for the last five years, and it's a whole lot of fun. I look forward to it every year. And she said, she said--I saw Jackie Lomax at the Knitting Factory last Saturday, and he was great! He not only performed "Sour Milk Sea," he also performed a few new songs from his latest album. There will be a Mods and Rockers festival closing party this Tuesday at the Knitting Factory, so maybe he'll perform there again.

album, album. pane, pane. so, right around the time the fellows who became the beatles were starting to gel, the dodgers baseball team was moving to los angeles, california, usa. apparently, while the beatles were saving the world for rock and roll, there was also a grand scheme for them to hook up with the los angeles dodgers four and one half decades later and inspire them, oops, mean, RUTLE THEM ! to win the world series. at least that is what Ken Rosenthal seems to think because on july 4 he wrote in yahoo's netnews magazine called sporting news this: "even a mediocre offense would give the dodgers an effective, lennon-mccartney partnership. their inability to score, however, produces a grating, lennon-yoko ono effect." anyway, my red apple let it be album shows dig it clocking in at 51 seconds but the short/long song show on breakfast with those beatles a few weeks back clocked in at 44 seconds. what am i missing. "answer me". who knew. so, would that be get back the anthology version or get back the drunken sing along version. because, good heavens, get a buncha drunk brits in a bar, and who knows how god save the queen would sound. probably like scrambled eggs. and a side of bangers. yep. so, who's up for a road trip to cuba. - - - buddy was an avid sailor and thrived in the outdoors. he won a multitude of races here and abroad, including the prestigious 1968 honolulu transpac yacht race in his 35-foot catamaran polynesian concept. before that, in the boat's first race, he placed second in the newport to ensenada. his true love was the sea. but, that is newport beach for you. we all love the sea.

Are you going to promote a tour for Ringo's housekeeper? Or maybe Paul's pool cleaner? You have lived off of the Beatles' name long enough!

welcome to july. tuesday is a good day. if we are into week 26 then that sounds 'purt near halfway through a 52 week year. when you can look back at all the fun and memories the new year promised and look foward the all the excitement the remaining year beckons. why not indulge in some mid-year quotes. "you need concepts that can be easily grasped, that can be described quickly in the schoolyard or at the grocery store checkout. You need urgent word of mouth." walter parkes, co-head of motion pictures at dreamworks skg "a good concept gives you a rifle shot instead of a shotgun when it comes to marketing. it gets back to simple, iconic messages and characters." chris mcgurk coo of mgm "you could break that artist as the next global superstar. the platform in and of itself is enormous in terms of direct marketing." tommy mottola production company owner "unlike a star, concept has the twin virtures of low maintenance and ease of manufacture. whether it is movies, television or music, it is often the spectacle, not the stardom, that is being marketed." new yourke tymes june 23, 2003 are george's dolphin eyes like john lennon's on looking through or is that just me. oh, ok. just me. and, speaking of george, the american ballet theatre is having the west coast premiere of within you without you a tribute to george harrison july 22-24, 2003, at orange county (california) performing arts center in coastal amazing california.

From all accounts it seems he was a regular with the group long enough to at least warrant a sound-byte or interview on camera for this history...

russ and julie write this about laurence juber (www.jrp-graphics.com/houseconcerts/concert 24.html): "juber and his family live in the l.a. area, where the guitarist owns a state-of-the-art project recording studio. for those that couldn't make the show, we'd like to share one of the comments lj made at the concert: he said he learned 3 very important lessons from his years touring with paul mccartney. first, that it is o.k. and can be very cool to work with your spouse. (we love that one as we work together, too!!). second, that one should never give up songwriting rights. (thinking of michael jackson's ownership of much of the beatles catalog.) and third, that one should not try to smuggle marijuana into japan! thank you lj for a truly incredible evening." the folks who bring you a little touch of schmilsson on the net attribute one of the greatest quotes in rock history to laurence juber: "the northridge earthquake rocked southern california on january 17, 1994, just two days after harry nilsson died. aftershocks rumbled during harry's funeral where someone joked that the earthquake was the result of harry getting to heaven and discovering that there is no bar there. guitarist laurence juber tells the above story as an introduction to his instrumental tribute to nilsson called "when harry got to heaven." " believe that song can be found on the mosaic cd and not the lj plays the beatles cd. bet your bippie i'm checking but is laurence juber the only grammy award winning guitarist macca has ever recorded with? laurence juber himself weighs in on a relevantly current topic: "the internet has created a music middle class that didn't exist before, there was no way to reach people. but now you can do a lot of business on your own. i'm just a big fan of what the internet has to offer". and, he is a devoted father. if you would like to hear laurence juber in julie and russ's living room, then fire up your...internet - and email them at if you would like to hear laurence juber in carter's rock den, then blast out a...email - to my baby's request - do a rock show

"run devils run" must certainly be about the favorite album of the moment now, but that sounds completely reasonable - let's get the stereo sgt pepper on there and give it the same treatment. week 23 of our year two thousand 3 brings quite a few things. it brings the world's most famous trophy - the stanley cup - to new jersey for the 3rd time in only nine years. i think it is the most famous trophy because you can fit more margarita mix in it. you get to see your first friday the 3 teenth of the year. and, you get to see the kickoff of the biggest weekend around. fire up the ... grill. oh wait, that is next week's news. so this week, seeing as sports ruled the weekend ('his muther was a mudder? his mudder was a mudder') "you can observe a lot by watching" yogi berra

I enjoyed hearing the Mono version of Sgt. Pepper... but I have great great memories of my first listenings of the LP when it came out, in the Stereo version. I'm surprised to learn that Mono was how it was intended - I thought George Martin had done his 'wizardry' with the cool stereo sepration on the tracks with Beatle approval.

Well, Macca rocked Red Square so he pretty much owns red. And Mark Hudson has been lighting up screens worldwide sporting blue so he pretty much inherits blue. Richard Starkey, Mr. Sunshine himself and the Ringo-leader of the original sunny summer of love pretty much wins yellow. Now, I am no artiste, but I am under the impression that all the colours of the universe come from only three primary colours: red, blue and yellow. Leave it to the only people in the world who could really pull this off. Macca, Mark and Stark filling our second annual celebration of the 35th anniversary of the summer of love with cool colours and hot music. Take a little dab of red and a dash of blue while lightly sliding it across yellow and you get periwinkle � the beautiful colour of a new beginning such as when the sun rises over the desert or you slowly arouse from your slumber early in the morning. And, who hasn�t been influenced, I mean RUTLED, by periwinkle. Didn�t John Lennon claim to have come up with Instant Karma while rising one morning from a periwinkle dream. And didn�t that timeless classic Scrambled Eggs see the light of day for the first time one morning after it came from a periwinkle dream in Paris � the City of Lights. It�s ok. Dab on a little colour and crank some Beatles. It�s summer. Of course we all knew that when Carter Almighty waved his hand declaring the Iraq war over and that it was safe to play golf again. So, I promise to try and burn less mega bytes in the future � and turn the water off when I brush my teeth, and not have so many lights on, and not let my car run for 10 minutes during the chilly mornings to warm things up, but, it is MR. RINGO STARR!! Being interviewed by the Larry King of rock and roll interviewers � MR. TOM PETTY!! This would be a few years ago when they were recording I Call Your Name for the Liverpool John Lennon tribute. RINGO STARR: Good evening. My name is Ringo Starr. TOM PETTY: And I�m Tom Petty. Two seasoned professionals around the four-track. So you�ve made a new album Ringo? RS: Yes. I�d like to thank you for being on one of the tracks that�s not actually on the album. TP: Oh, I am always on the one�s that they take off. RS: Well, listen, you used me as a fake drummer in a video, so we�re even. TP: I haven�t got to hear the album yet, but I�m told it�s really, really good. RS: Oh, let me give you a copy. Here you go. TP: Thanks. So, you play the drums on the album? RS: I play the drums. I am the only drummer. I am the best rock drummer on the planet. I�m sure you�ll agree. TP: You certainly are. No arguments there. � Great. Are you going on the road? RS: I like it there [Greek Theatre in Los Angeles]. It�s a really good size audience for me. I don�t want to play those big stadiums like you play. [laughs] TP: Well, that�s because you�re already rich. RS: I�ve just heard that you�ve got a new deal. You must be loaded. TP: Well, I�m just doing interviews right now. RS: So am I. That�s how well-off we are. Of course, Mr. Harrison, the billionaire of life, has just left town. TP: Yeah, ol� one-gig-a-year guy. RS: One gig every seven years. TP: I heard you got onstage at Albert Hall recently with George. Well, Mike Campbell was playing that night, and he said when you came on that he almost had to just sit down and dig the rhythm �cause you�re really a great drummer. The human metronome, I call you. RS: B.B. King called me the human grandfather clock. TP: [laughs] And what did Timothy Leary call you? RS: Whaaaa! TP: I got George playing the blues last night. We were jamming. He�s a really good blues guitarist. In all the time I�ve known him, he�s never broken into that. RS: Thank God he�s playing the blues and not that bloody ukulele that he loves so much. TP: Well, we went through a few years of that. I�ve got four ukulele at my house just for emergencies, you know. RS: In case George gets withdrawal. TP: What kind of records do you listen to when you�re at home? Do you still listen to stuff that you grew up digging? I know you were a Johnnie Ray fan, weren�t you? RS: So anyway, you go to the record collection and what do you pick out? Ray Charles never lets me down. And, you know, I�m actually starting to play Sgt. Pepper. I don�t know why�I do know why. Because George Martin is doing a show, The Making of Sgt. Pepper, and he�s interviewing us all, and so I thought, I�d better play that record and see what�s it�s like, I was really knocked out again, I hadn�t played it in so long that the diversity of the songs blew me away. But it also sounds kind of na�ve, really. TP: Na�ve? RS: Yeah, the production and the state of the art in those days. TP: Well, it�s great production, though. It�s a really good sound. RS: But the mix � stuff over here and stuff over there. TP: But I like that. RS: I didn�t say I didn�t like it Tom. [Petty laughs] I said it sounds na�ve. TP: Well, O.K. Making any movies? Have you given up acting? RS: I haven�t really given it up. I�m just refocusing on being a drummer again. Back to the dream, you know, when I was thirteen. TP: Do you live in L.A. now? RS: Well, we�re residents of Monte Carlo, but we bought this home in Beverly Hills. And we�re living here because I�m working again. We also have a house in Aspen, of course, like everyone else. I�m sure you do. TP: No. RS: Where are you? Telluride? [laughs] TP: [laughs] So, what do you do when you get free time, Ringo? RS: Well, usually I come around o your house and watch you sleep. TP: [laughs] Besides that, I mean. Do you have any other interests? RS: Right now, we�re unpacking. We�ve just moved into a new house. I really like o sit outside. Things are changing in my head, and I like to be out in the light. So we bought this house � a billion � dollar green house, really. Windows everywhere, huge glass. One level. So, I hang around, making phone calls, watch the TV, play a record, Barbara�s in school studying psychology, and I�m here having fun. TP: So she�s gone back to college then? Good for her. RS: I believe I mentioned she was a Ph.D., which is totally wrong. That�s down the line. TP: I�m thinking about going back to high school and trying to - RS: - learn to spell � TP: - and add, because I can�t help my kids with their homework. It�s embarrassing. RS: I�m real serious. They have a million things you can do. It would be great to hang out and see what�s happening. So that�s another thing for the future. Anyway, Tom, let�s take a break, because breakfast is here. **end** actually, they go on for about three days, plus. most of the full read can be found at http:///www.built2last.de/tomtalks.html but unless it is a periwinkle dream, this is the fune that a little month like jun can bring. p.s. if you are interested in whether venus and mars are all right, august 2003 will put the planet mars the closest to earth that it has been in SIXTY FOUR THOUSAND YEARS! so from someone that is still working on two weekends ago � fire up your �. telescopes.

Hiya! Anybuddy know where I can find a guitar tab of John's beautiful "Dear John?" That was real nice demo to hear on Sunday, and I was stunned to realize it's one of his last recordings... So, appreciate anybuddy's help on that. Next, want to say thanks to Chris for apologizing to us veggies for the Mary Had Little Lamb comment!! Too GROSS! And, lastly, want to let ya'll know Sunday was in fact the first time Chris has spun the ever luv'ly Heaven On A Sunday for us! Well worth the wait. Whatta pretty one that is.

**MACCAMANIA! ROCKS RUSSIA** From blue beards to Red Square. All we need is yellow for a colourful cabbage patch. And, in a bit of Beatles trivia, that Disney comedy classic Jungle 2 Jungle opened in USA theaters the same day in 1997 that the Beatles made their 1962 debut on BBC radio's "Light Programme". What date was it - eh, Tim? In the Tim Allen movie Jungle 2 Jungle, his wild son is trying to tell him the names for different species of bird in his language. Tim Allen has a go. "Yuku Ono," he says. "The bird who can't sing." Well, Mr. T & A has been rutled by the Beatles and shared some of his experiences in the 2000 TV special Beatles Revolution. Maybe he'll do a drive-by and share some more experiences in the studio. So, am I seeing a trend, Beatles fan = getting a free car from Car and Driver. Works for me. Well, Macca had a two day splash in the UK's Daily Mirror and now Yoko Ono shows up there. What are the odds? Of course, she did just turn 70 and was voted the most influential Asian woman in the world. I don't know who by - probably a group of German ravers. So, shall we bend a little ear to see what is on her mind these days? "I'm just as vulnerable as anyone. That's why I wear my glasses, to protect myself. But on a spiritual level, I feel like we're still together. Sometimes I feel that John is telling me what to do. That's why I like young people to see it. They might think they don't have anything - a piano, say. And they can see what little he had, and yet how many beautiful dreams started there (John Lennon's childhood home on Menlove Avenue). Paul's got a quirky side, and this is his quirk (putting credit where credit is due). We're all allowed to have some quirks." catch the full read with Nina Myscow at www.mirror.co.uk

Lawsuit: Michael Jackson Near Bankruptcy Fri May 23, 5:28 PM ET "For whatever reason, Michael Jackson is not paying his debts," said Pierce O'Donnell, a leading entertainment finance lawyer. "He has little or no means of income. He lives off a line of credit." He added: "The day of reckoning is near." Jackson's assets include his Neverland ranch in the hills above Santa Barbara and homes in Southern California and Las Vegas. Most of Jackson's assets are in musical holdings worth an estimated $450 million, including 200 Beatles titles and songs recorded by Elvis Presley (news), Forbes reported.

Chris - I think this was the most creative and entertaining BWTB you've had. Absolutely loved 'Unplugged', then your 'Let It Be' hour was wonderful! The only other thing I want to say is, don't you feel bad playing John songs about how much Yoko hated Paul? I can't imagine it was a good emotion for anybody involved...

I've been listening to the program for years, back in the days when Dierdre was hosting it and one thing I can say I've never heard until today was anything from John Lennon's 'Sometime In New York City' album. This album contains one of John's best songs. In particular a song which I love called 'Angela' a dedication to activist Angela Davis. You would do well to play this along with 'Sunday Bloody Sunday', 'Attica State' and 'Born In a Prison'. All of these are some of John's best contributions in the 70's but the album is almost completely ignored because John made the mistake of including the unsavory 'N word' in the album's only single. I hope you begin playing the songs from this album, atleast I think they compare with or exceed all of McCartney's early 70s contributions. Oh and while you're playing these don't forget an additional song called 'John Sinclair' it's a winner also.

Here's some news for you all: Paul McCartney will play in what will probably be his only announced USA concert appearence September 23 at the Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, california. Please do not contact the hotel for they will have no information on this event. This will be the thrid straight yearly concert/dinner in support of Adopt A Minefield. The first was in 2001 in which Sir Paul played with Paul Simon-Simon and McCartney! And the night before that event, Both Paul's played I've Just Seen A Face at the Greek Theater unannounced the the total delight and suprise of the crowd. Simon at the time on tour with Brian Wilson. McCartney met with Wilson backstage after Brian's set and that's when Brian agreed to do the 2002 Minefield show. They both played as well as Steven Stills. More announcements regarding this show will be made available to the public in earlt June.

feliz cinco de mayo. we voted for the kentucky derby winner because of the name: peace rules, funny cide. but for the first time in derby history a new york bred horse won. do i feel a nor'easter. anyway, the folks in europe are feeling macca mania-the same way the folks in japan, mexico and america felt it last year. so, if european - i hope you hit the right spot. anyway, the daily mirror uk caught SIR PAUL'S latest thoughts. let's listen in, shall we. and i apologize if i burn a few extra megabytes but it is MR. SIR PAUL MCCARTNEY! and that is what this is here for, right? Thanks Jack. "I'm a Viagra donor. This is where the world gets it from. I don't need that stuff. Not manymen meet up with one good woman. So I knew how lucky I was to find Linda. And then it happened again with Heather. I'm the guy who knew him best. We slept together as teenagers, top-and-tailed in millions of hitch-hiking places. We were in little rooms doing the Beatles stuff when no one else was so I'd hate people to think I'm trying to do him down. I used to ring him and we had some lovely conversations about ordinary things. I'd say: "What are you doing today?' and he'd say 'baking bread'. I'd go: "I bake bread' and we were swapping recipes across the Atlantic. It was back to normal. I was proud to have him in my life. Same with Linda, George my mum and dad. And I hope they were proud to have me in theirs. It's very sad but you have to move on. The last time I met him, he was very sick and I held his hand for four hours. As I was doing it, I was thinking 'I've never held his hand before, ever. This is not what two Liverpool fellas do, no matter how well you know each other'. I kept thinking, 'he's going to smack me here'. But he didn't. He just stroked my hand with his thumb and I thought 'Ah, this is OK, this is life. It's tough but it's lovely. That's how it is'. I knew George before I knew any of the others andI loved that man. I'm so proud to have known him. Still, as sad as it was, you take the great bit, which was that last time you saw him, and that's what you remember. That and all the other lovely memories. But I enjoy life, I always have. I go to the pictures on my own, get on buses, even in New York. People are always going on at me for using the London Underground. But I use it all the time. I just wander off. I prefer to live life the way it should be andnot worry too much because when the great man upstairs wants you, he'll have you. I don't feel any age, I never have. Those 30, 40,50, 60 landmark birthdays never meant anything to me. I treat them all the sameand it seems to work out like that. Life is really good right now, so why worry about things? It was hard at first with Wings, because we were a bit rought. But there was a time whenthe (sic) Beatles weren't very good. The difference was we were being bad in private, whereas Wings were being it in public (puh-leeze paulie. anyway). It's what's happens when you take risks. I like taking risks. Half the time I don't know why I'm doing it. But I know that if The Beatles hadn't taken risks there would have been no Sergeant (sic) Pepper. 'I don't think of you as rich, you know.' And I said 'I don't either.' But I am. And tne best thing about it is being able to help friends and relatives with health problems. We just had a friend of Heather's who was stuck in an NHS hospital. She was going to be in over Christmas and I said 'Get her private'. They did the operation that night and she was home for Christmas. It sounds a bit goody-goody but that's the real buzz I get out of money. John would be totally pissing about on the piano, whacking his arm up and down the keyboard and we were in hysterics. We're here to lift people's spirits. We're musicians, not politicians. I'd prefer peace to war and I agree with those people who went on the marches, because there was no second resolution. But it is a complex issue an it's happening now. So I'm not going to say that our boys shouldn't be in there when they're laying their lives on the line. I've got relatives out there so I'm not going to say anything that would lower their morale. But yes, peace would definitely be preferable." so. yo. yo. the shortcut. brian reade. mirror.co.uk see the whole

I quite enjoyed parts of the Beatle-esque show mostly when it was the Beatles and other 60's bands (i'm still waiting for a Beatles and Monkees show, although i get the feeling i'll be waiting for a while) Sometimes during a regular show it will feel very Beatle-esque with the solo fab material.

How about a Beatle-involved songs show where tracks in which one or more Beatles participate in the creation/production but not as the featured artist. And then juxtapose the track played with a related Beatle track. Obvious ones like the demo and the released version of Goodbye-Paul's version and Mary Hopkin's version. Of course the way the tracks relate could get much more obscure---pretty good grist for Quiz Questions tooo!!

Dear Beatle Chris and fellow Fab Four fans, The Beatlesque show was much better than the Beatles v. Stones show. How about a Beatle Cover Version show? I have a collection of vocal and instrumental Beatle covers that are very good. I hope you consider it Chris.

Chris - a Beatlesque II is definitely in order. But please - less Rutles and more ELO, Peter & Gordon, Badfinger, Nilsson, Chad & Jeremy, Strawberries (or was it Raspberries?)and maybe a Phantom Planet. Rutles were a straight-on satire - don't think they really fit in with this theme, IMHO...

Hey, Chris: Just a quick note to say how much I enjoyed the Beatlesque show. I was a little unsure about having to give up half the show to non-Beatles music, but in the end I thought you did a wonderful job. Great song selection. Thanks.

Some unabashedly Beatlesque tunes, if you can find them: Group: Song (from 1970 LP Song Album featuring Mickey Rooney Jr. on vocals - sounding very much like John Lennon at times), MGM Records. Beatley pics: Wife, Whenever I THink of You, Eat Fruit, Sugar Lady. Emmitt Rhoades "The Children Live In Saigon" - it's like Obladiblada but in a late 60s political vein... Haven't got a clue where to find it though. More Beatlesque tunes: Doo Wah Diddy (Mannfed Mann), Can't Get It Out of My Head (ELO),

Hottest Gong In Town: proof that some good music came out of the 80s! (Hmm, I wonder what Dramarama sounds like, hmmm...) Beck sometimes does a cover of John's "Love." I've never heard it but I'm sure it's very Beatlesque: have you got that one, Chris?

whoo hoo. mid terms are over. oy. nothing that got to getting 30 hours of sleeping into my life and thinking of an old champion flat picking friend can't solve. look out spring break. it is so fabulous our generous host keeps the show so exciting but a show on beatlesque songs is so precipitously close to earth day and everyone in orange county will be at the annual earth day concert funfest in fullerton put on by orange county's favorite band - lit! now, not saying lit is beatlesque, or that rock and roll celebrating fun, sun, the beach and fast cars isn't great, but it would be nice to find a rock and roll band that could do a great song about our dear mother earth. but finding something like that which is beatlesque would probably be like lining up the holes in swiss cheese. so, now, if jeff lynne produced some beatles songs in the mid 1990's, and some of his songs have a familiar armchair sound, would that expand the playlist scope. and are former beatles' solo songs that sound beatlesque on the platter. well - not to be confused with my shallow mind - i can only think of a few really beatlesque songs that are really beatlesque. q'est que c'est. ring up the new yorkers, hudson brothers and the so oh amazingly simple songs so you are a star or in the first place, gentlemen - and eliina. golf balls have dimples. do banana records have yellow ribbons. happy birthday to eric idle - a really funny person and good friend to breakfast with the beatles.

I have to agree with the guy who took you task today about your daughter's Beatle education. I think the major thing kids that age know are their numbers (up to 3 or maybe even 9), their alphabet (probably NOT up to LMNOP!), and their colors - then they get to clap their their hands! What could be more educational and entertaining? I'll bet she adores it and it becomes a 'favorite' (as long as she sings it!) Sue

hey alhambra mike. thanks for the ringo tv hookup and i just found a place this week at beatlecollector.com/tvalerts that has everything. this week you can watch george harrison duet with paul simon (snl on e), how i won the war movie with john lennon, snl music featuring macca, a show on macca's last japanese visit and everything ringo. and it seems being zero for one in the trivia ring beatlegirl. two of us made the gold circle again last week so the ouija (yes-yes in french-german) board is fired up with the loaded dice on deck if you have another one. roundheads is an english political term from the 1600's - a group of rowdies that tossed out the king and started the beginning of the modern english state. ringo and the roundheads are the musicians for ringo's recent albums. allan kozinn reviewed the roundheads show last saturnday in nyc for the ny times and suggested ringo put the all-starrs on ice, just once, and tour with these guys. methinks some shows with his great recent songs would make a wonderful bonus disc on the next all starr release - but then, methinks enough ringo is never enough. robert blake apparently thanked his jailors for "helping keep this old cowboy on the right side of the dirt road". whatever. "willie (nelson) will always be 69 to me. i'm blessed that he's been in my life musically since the late '50s, to the '60s, '70s, 80's, 90's and now in the 2000's, with his incredible art of writing, singing and of course his guitar playing". ringo starr. mark your calendars-july 27, 2003!

John M. - regarding my 3/23 comment - it was intended as a tongue-in-cheek dig at the KLOS morning meatheads ("the two meatheads down the dial") getting more inspiration from Pete Best than from Ringo, because I don't think the KLOS guys are very funny... Sorry for the confusion. RINGO was and is very definitely THE ONE! I'm gonna buy RINGORAMA this weekend.

Dude regarding Ringo... Your logic is not much like our earth logic is it. Ringo was a great addition to the beatles, not just has a much better drummer than Pete, but his sense of humor is keen, sharp, fresh and always on Q. Pete Best, as fine a man as he is brought the band wasn't the one... Thanks for your opinion though.

ladies and gentlemen. boys and girls. and folks with little cats. mr sir paul mccatney proclaimed on his recent msn.co.uk chat that they always say liverpool is the capitol of ireland and that he likes irish people because he is one basically. there is still an opportunity to go to that website and win tickets for a concert in europe and to be one of ten thousand people to get an e-ticket for a forty minute warm up show before the upcoming concert in moscow's red square being broadcast exclusively on the msn internet website. paulmccartney.com also has details. beatlemania continues at ringotour.com where all details of the extravaganza known as ringo tour 2003 will soon be unfurled. gregg bissonette is an accomplished modern drummer whose most recent album features steve vai (!) and joe satriani and who has collaborated recently with abe laboriel, don henley and ringo starr. read about him raving how cool ringo is in the next issue of vintage drummer magazine not coming to a newsstand near you so hit the corner stand in studio city and get an extra copy for your next best friend. and, still listening and still laughing, anyone who thought that neil innes was only the musical muscle and not the funny bone must listen again. they should call that classic the egyptian show because it was pure gold. oh, and mr sir macca starts his msn webcast by welcoming all the cyber spacemen and women. thirty five years it takes to go from urban spaceman to cyber spaceman - only seven years per letter. can't wait for the next thirty five so multiple thanks for misters carter, innes and mccartney for coordinating such a wonderful international broadcasting week. and isn't that full moon just absolutely breathtaking on the low horizon with the fresh rain swept breeze electrifying the air. how fun! p.s. more ham and suchnot is never not good

I go to Palms Middle School and I have to do a year-long project called the I-Search. Luckily, it can be on any topic you like. Being a hardcore Beatle fan since age seven, I decided to do my year-long project on the Beatles. For this project I have to do multiple interviews and one observation. I was wondering if I could please sit in the radio station with you guys and observe what goes on? It is essential for my project and if you allow me to may I please interview you? My whole English grade depends on this-PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP! I am so desperate of observing the radio station that I will give my number to you here in which the public can all read. It is .......Thank you so much Chris and i hope i may contact you soon...I will try giving a call next Sunday morning. Hail Beatles!

maybe someone in beatledom can help out with these answers. a) how long was ringo starr drumming with the beach boys; b) when was the last time all four beatles were photographed together-not just the photo shoot but the actual last time they were all together now in the same frame; c) in an homage to the urban legend of the beatles using backwards lyrics in some songs, the rutles have a short snippet of george harrison saying something backwards in the middle of the song 'piggy in the middle' so does he say this little piggy went to marrakesh or something else and are there any other instances of backwards looping; d) when are the pre-rutlemania tapes going to be released officially (not bootlegged). these would be the ones from the cave beneath the basement without any production-the de-sphincterized version. gary weis was co-director of that fabulous movie featuring the rutles called all you need is cash (along with eric idle). in the fab u airy 1996 issue of q magazine, he had this to say: "george harrison was involved almost from the beginning. he was around quite a lot, even when he didn't need to be there. we were sitting around in eric's kitchen one day, planning a sequence that really ripped into the mythology and george looked up and said 'we were the beatles, you know!' then he shook his head and said 'aw, never mind.' i think he was the only one of the beatles who could see the irony of it all. the most surreal thing for me was that when we were doing the bits outside of the apple building, and george is made up as a tv reporter interviewing neil innes, a teenage kid came up and asked george, 'is that john lennon?' it never dawned on him who he was talking to." mark your calendars. gregg bissonette coming soon to a venue near you.

In the last three days I've heard "Stuck Inside A Cloud" piped into two stores including one of the brand new Kohl's. I only went in because I was already in the center.

I'm sure there are some who think there's too much Beatles music on the radio on Sundays. Apparently one of them runs KRTH's "Beatles by Request" from 9-11pm on Sundays! They keep saying "12 in a row" but that means 2 or 3 Beatles plus 9 or 10 Aretha, Stevie Wonder etc. I'd think 50% Beatles should be the minimum.

whoa carter. hey. yay. ok. we get it. last summer is over, now new summer here. six inches of rain and snow in southern california. over two feet of snow on the eastern seaboard. seafood. most people give a hundred percent - should have known you'd do the hundred and third degree. well, the cross country skiiers in central park enjoyed it and david letterman sure seemed estatic about driving up to work on a snow kat with a few snow babes. and i certainly enjoyed rolling out of bed sunday morning at 3 pm to the most sunnily beautiful italian summer day i can remember since one in oregon last summer. so if summer is here, ringo must be near. and believe you me, when you are at a loss to say summer of love, you can sum it up in one word. ringo! and every southern california summer gets a jump start from that perineally summer southern california fun band. the one. the only. the knack. so something must be happening somewhere. john mortimer (b. 1923) is quoted in wine quotations edited by helen exley - isbn #1850154341.

it is so radical this new way of writing like where you go up instead of down on the notepad. so much like sansrit. the constitution of the u.s. allows the president to address congress and though sometimes it occurs more than once in a year it usually happens at least one time a year. ok, so maybe it is the oscars of snoozefest speeches but this is how the year 2003 state of the union address ended: "we americans have faith in ourselves - but not in ourselves alone. we do not claim to know all the ways of providence, yet we can trust in them, placing our confidence in the loving god behind all of life, and all of history. may he guide us now, and may god continue to bless the united states of america. thank you."

the orange county california register reports that according to chinatown online this is the chinese year of 4701 - the year of the ram. the ram is the most mild - mannered of all the chinese zodiac animals and can be prone to a little nervousness. the ram is an animal that avoids confrontation whenever possible; he prefers a quiet life. along with 2003, other years that fell under the ram include 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979 and 1991. predictions say this may feel like a year of abundance for people born under the ram; their natural generosity will come to the fore. they should make sure they always weigh their words well, however, because their exuberance could lead to misunderstandings. ok, week # 5 quote # 5 president george w bush state of the union address 2003. uh oh. curfew. gotta go 'til 'morrow.

Hey Chris Carter..Found this in Billboard about your former group Dramarama's song being covered at a Beck show at Sundance Film Fest.. Read On > Billboard Bits: Sundance, Foo Fighters, Springsteen A star-studded crowd turned out last night (Jan. 22) at Harry O's in Park City, Utah, to watch Beck, Ben Lee, and DJ Z-Trip serenade an HBO party as part of the annual Sundance Film Festival. Beck's mostly acoustic set eventually gave way to electric versions of such songs as "Nicotine and Gravy," while the encore featured a medley of favorites from Nelly, Prince, and The Tom Tom Club. Earlier in the night, Phantom Planet drummer Jason Schwartzman joined Lee for a portion of his set, which concluded with Liz Phair taking the mic for Dramarama's "Anything, Anything." The event was sponsored by Levi's, Cornerstone Promotions and The Fader magazine, and drew such film stars as the Culkin brothers, Salma Hayek, and Chloe Sevigny.

Re: Epiphany... According to many folkloric/religious beliefs, people celebrate "christmas" until the 6th of Jan. because this is the time when restless spirits wander the earth in search of "the Light" and by keeping the christmas candle burning and other symbolic artifacts around the home, one could ward off evil or unwanted guests... Germanic folklore calls this the Wild Hunt. Just a little trivia for your Sunday morning :)

As for the poll on Paul - whether he should he be ABLE to change songwriting credit or whether he SHOULD are two different questions. Being an artist I understand his motivations, but he should realize that no one will ever think him the lesser songwriter of the two if he's listed last. We all know which songs are his already. So, after much thought on the subject, in honour of John's memory - Paul, if you're reading this - let it be.

Oh! The quote reminds me: Lonely Days is one of the most beautiful...no, it's *the* most beautiful song I've heard thus far all year. :) Also, I be watching the Abbey Road Web Cam all the time now! :) Lastly, we all know where THE place to be tonight (1/16) is, don't we???

week #2. quote #2. "people accuse us of being nothing more than a disco band now. but they don't know what they're talking about. if you listen to our records, you'll find that there's dance music. but there are also ballads like 'more than a woman'. and there are some very beautiful, undanceable songs, too." maurice gibb in tg magazine - 1978

Hi Chris. In tribute Deirdre (thanks once again) could you please play a song most of her listeners dedicated to her upon her death - I'll Follow the Sun? At her tribute concert the Fab Four also dedicated an emotion packed version of the Golden Slumbers medley. I would also love to hear that one. Thanks. Cathy

Hi Chris, How about a show or weekly segment of other artists covering Beatles group/solo songs. Like the Finn brothers' "Too many people", E.C.'s "Bicycle" followed by the version that appears in the McCartney albumn tribute, Tony Bennet's "My Love", Bryan Ferry's "You won't see me" and the version of "Hey Jude" from the movie "The Unbearable Lightness of Being". Has anyone done a great version of "A Day In The Life"? That song and the above mentioned movie deal with the weight of events in life that keep our feet on the ground. Thanks, Mike

Brunch With The Beatles - did ya know that's what Deirdre called the show during its brief run on KNX 93.1 way back before she moved to KLSX? Just a little trivia thing... She wasn't allowed to use "Breakfast" because of her earlier station trying to hang up the name rights...

hey carter - and all those in BEATLEDOM! well, i just printed out and read the forum - all 41 pages - for the first time. i apologize there carter. i did not realize you wanted me to call you damn it! if anything, i would call you the hot rock jock on the block. like mccartney music, i would listen to any show you did. just because it is not an iron maiden variety show but rather the beatles is just extra whipped cream on my sundae and having a lot of mccartney is just a kicker to boot. i'm telling ya kids, if tom petty would have been hanging out with carter a little more and jim ladd a little less, he would have named his new album the first dj, not the last dj. and thank you for holding that wings song girl's school until the very end right before the george harrison tribute set closed out your broadcast year. really kids, that song there is the money song. so as we pull out of the best palindrome year many of you will ever see, i send out to all in beatledom a warm auld lang syne (what does that mean there, eh butch?). i certainly had fun during the 1st annual celebration of the 35th anniversary of the summer of love. for me it is still going on - the endless summer! see ya'll on the other side. happy new year 2002.

lonnie donnegan recently retired away at age 71. lonnie was a respected jazz guitarist who was a member of popular jazz club outfits in the early to mid 1950's. in between sets, lonnie would play acoustic songs on guitar and banjo drawing from a wide range of american influences from blues to country western. lonnie was english and in great britain at the time. the jazz band he was with at the time got signed to decca records and on their debut album they included some of lonnie's between break songs. one song became a break out hit staying on the British charts over 20 weeks and cracking the American top 20. i do not know the name but it includes words like this: does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight? (if your mother says don't chew it, do you swallow it in spite?). skiffle was born. a simple music style, it only required the knowledge of two chords, a snaredrum and a bass which consisted of a string attached to the end of a broom stick resting on a cupboard. lonnie donnegan is credited with inspiring both john lennon and pete townsend to form skiffle groups and with inspiring george harrison to pick up a guitar and learn how to play. obviously, lonnie donnegan had his success eclipsed by those who were encouraged by him and emulated his style. so while we reminisce over those dear to us during these holidays, please give a shout out to those before who influenced those whose styles we now so enjoy. happy holiday

The idea of Beatle collaborations is a nice one. I agree, no Macca and Michael Jackson! But, I'd love to hear Macca and Elvis Costello. No more Stones for a while, however! It was a nice show, but we need to remember it is Breakfast with the Beatles and that should always be the focus. Chris, you do a great job! Keep it up!

Don't want to see BWTB get too diluted but it would be cool to hear various Beatle+other artist collaborations now and then or a specific show to highlight those... I'm thinking of Harrison-Wilburys, Lennon-Bowie, Lennon-Nilsson, etc. You can pass on the Macca-Michael Jackson stuff tho...

Loved the show. I have to answer a comment that was made. Come On, I Want to Be Your Man, Off the Hook, Stupid Girl, Child of the Moon, and Dandelion are definitely not KRTHish music. That being said, I remember many years ago hearing how the Stones first had the hit with I Want to Be Your Man and thought how ironic it was. The two groups always went head to head amongst us fans. You loved one and disliked the other. How ironic their first hit, albeit a minor one, was written by Lennon/McCartney.

Barry and I listen to your show every week and LOVE it!! I especially loved the Beatles vs. the Rolling Stones. A great concept and a great play list! Thanks for making Sunday mornings so much fun!

Hey Mr. Carter Besides The Beatles and The Stones , who are some of your other favorite rock'n'roll artists\bands. I used to listen to you on Y107 were you played a lot on alternative music, but I can tell you lean more towards the 60's and 70's...fill us in. Thanks for putting the time into making such a great show week in week out...you always keep it fresh...We Love You (a Stones song!)

Hi Chris: Thanks for the Beatles vs. Stones show. That was a great idea. It really helped to highlight the influences they had on each other. It's also remarkable in retrospect that they were so supportive of each other' s releases despite their rivalry for the leadership of the rock'n'roll world. Not likely that would happen in today's record biz.

The only drawback for me re: the Stones vs. Beatles show was hearing the word "Abkco" over and over... Considering how Allen Klein was such a point of contention at the Beatles' 'end' it just kind of grates to know he's profiting from all this!

Great show on Sunday, Chris. And congratulations on the show receiving such high ratings. I have a request for this Sunday's show. Since skiffle artist Lonnie Donegan passed away this week, and he was a big influence on the Beatles, could you play a few of his songs? Thanks.

Well i'm glad that the show is doing so well! I can't wait to listen to an entire show of ONLY Beatle music next Sunday :) You owe us nay-sayers of the Rolling Stones that much! I thik that you should do a Beatles vs. The Monkees show! wooo hoo!I can't get enough of them! So what if they didn't play their own instruments or write their own songs, you just CAN'T refuse their good looks and charm!! Oh btw for all you Stones fans out there, next week on The Simpsons (8pm pst on Fox 11) the Rolling Stones are going to be the special guests! I thought you would all like to know!

Check out the photo gallery for a classic photo of Paul perusing The Stones Aftermath long player circa `66 .Also just got the ratings for the last quarter and BREAKFAST W/ THE BEATLES received it's HIGHEST ratings in the show's history and also garnered the highest ratings for any weekend show in Los Angles..Thanks to all of YOU..............

Re: Beatles books and Jessica's post below - there are billions but I'd suggest the Anthology since this was their own book, as well as The Beatles Chronicle by Mark Lewisohn (considered a Beatles expert). A great Paul book is "Many Years From Now." From John, his last Playboy interview is published in "All We Are Saying," and of course, from George you need "I Me Mine." I don't believe Ringo has a book. Happy Reading!

Comments = The Beatles vs. the Stones was the best show you've done! My 9-year old likes the Stones now. The show left me in a great mood all day. As I've told you before, your show is my church on Sunday morning. My three kids look forward to it as well. It makes me feel good that they are getting their necessary Beatles education! I want to buy some books on the Beatles, which ones should I pick up? I can't wait to hear what you do for the one year anniversary of George Harrison's death. Keep up the good work!

Hi, just want to make a comment that I felt some of the Rolling Stone choices were a bit too KEARTH 101ish, you know, songs I can hear on the radio all week long? (Where were Sympathy For The Devil & Time Is On My Side?) Clearly The Beatles were & are the superiour group because of their vocal abilities & because of their songwriting. But does this mean that listeners can now call up & request We Love You since there's allegedly Beatles singing on it? xo

Posted by BC

Posted On: 11/4/2002
Hey Chris - the Beatles vs. Stones show was really coool... I didn't hear a couple of my favorite Stones songs ('Time' and 'Out of Time') but maybe they weren't singles? I think you should start a 2nd separate program at another time/day for Beatles contemporaries/competitors & other Brit invasion forces (Stones, DAve Clark 5, etc.)?

Posted by Beatle Janet

Posted On: 11/3/2002
Well, I was not a big fan of the Beatles vs. Stones idea (I'm not a big Stones fan and we already know who is the superior group), but I must say that Chris & Co. did a great job this morning with the job. It was actually quite interesting to hear the differences between the two groups. And, it really helped reinforce who is the better group. Also loved hearing one of my favorite and seldom played Beatles songs, "You Know My Name..." Loved the end swipe at us Apple Scruffs who complained about the concept when Chris played "You Can't Always Get What You Want." I had to laugh! Looking forward to five full hours of Beatles next week, Chris! Keep up the great work and keep making Sunday mornings in Los Angeles like a little bit of heaven!

I'm sorry, I didn't like the Stones vs Beatles show at all. That is not why I tune in every Sunday! I listen to all kinds of other music all week long, from the 60's and other eras, from rock and roll to other genres... But Sunday morning is Beatle time in my house for 10 years or more. Please stick to the guys in the name of your show, cuz I like my Breakfast with the BEATLES!

Bravo to you Chris for the Beatles Vs. Stones idea! It should be stimulating to hear you shake things up - hope the hard-core Beatles fans will understand, there is room on this planet for both of these most influential, innovative and hard-rocking icons and what better way to highlight their respective attributes than to pit them against each other - song by song! Looking forward to a great show!

Hi, all my fellow Apple Scruffs: Must just say that Monday's show at Staples was awesome. As magical a night as it was in May. And, the coolest thing happened to me - I was interviewed by Paul's video crew outside of Staples before the show. They asked me how I liked Staples, how the show was in May (I said magical and said the music took me back. I spoke of my Macca High). Finally, at the end they asked me if I could scream like the fans used to. I screamed very loudly and everyone turned to look. Hey, maybe I'll end up on the secret site you can only access through the DVD. How cool! I'm still on my Macca High. Paul is just too hot for words! Ram On!

Hello, everyone :-) I'm a regular listener to Breakfast With The Beatles, and this is my first post here. Chris--great job with the show! I'll definitely be listening this Sunday (like I always do), and I'm even looking forward to hearing some Stones songs. It's OK to do things differently once in a while. Paul's show at Staples rocked!! I loved it! That was my first Paul concert ever, and it was a great show. I can't believe that someone who's career I've been following for years was standing on a stage in front of me singing songs I've listened to for years. Quite an experience. Anyway--what did you all think of the concert?

Posted by Cathy

Posted On: 10/30/2002
Your right that guy is a doofus. Here is a portion of a Times review of the same show: "McCartney's mirror-perfect replica performance didn't feel the least bit repetitive -- just joyfully timeless." That reporter gave the review the concert deserved.

Hey Chris and fellow Breakfastw/Beatles liesteners , Did anyone see the review of Paul's show at the Pond in the OC registar ? I was at that show and at the Pond show in May , and all I can say is ,could this guy be more out of step with the populace ? What a doofus! I appreciate well crafted criticism but this is not that. Hopefully Beatle Paul didn't get the Register at his hotel lest he should think this cretin spoke for us all.

Well, of course I'll be listening next Sunday, too, event though I voted against the Beatles vs. Stones thing. I guess a few hours of Stones won't hurt, and it will only serve to highlight who the greatest rock band of all time was, and will always be - the Beatles! And, as Chris said, "It's only rock and roll..."

Regarding George Harrison's new album, I understood that the song "Valentine" was to be included on Brainwashed, but for some reason it was taken out. This song is said to be a great pop ballad. I can bet that this song will be released as a single in the future with Paul and Ringo. Any comment??

Chris, as one of the Beatles v. Stones nay-sayers, I'm writing to exend an olive branch and concede defeat. I won't even demand a Florida-style recount and I promise to listen Sunday with an open mind and positive attitude, like a good scruff. But please promise that this won't lead down a slippery slope to Beatles v. Monkees, Beatles v. Sopranos, etc.

Did anyone stop to think just how difficult it is to do a weekly show that's fresh and entertaining? The fact that Chris actually cares enough to include his fans' opinions in the creation of his show speaks to the kind of guy he is... A nice one. And this is the way we show our appreciation??? My advice Chris: follow your bliss... play what you will...

Posted On: 10/27/2002
oooooo did i ever start controversy!! Thanks guys for defending me, love ya!!! Well Paul is my favorite Beatle but i used to LOVE it when Diedre(sp?) would play Ringo songs!I would tape them evertime one came on because they are good, but hard to find! It just seems like ever since Chris took over the show the count of Ringo songs dwindled down to one a show, and that one song was usually the same song!(goodnight vienna). I love that song but I had higher expectations for Mr.Carter being the Beatle genius he is! He can play every Beatle song in mono but can't find any different Ringo songs to play!! J/K much love Chris!! Anyways as for the stones thing, i just think that bwtb should stick to the Beatles, hence the name. Or the show should be called "Flashback to the 60's" or something like that. I really liked it when Diedre had a special hour before bwtb called snapshots where she featured different artists. If Chris feels the need to play non-Beatle songs maybe he should bring back that idea, just a suggestion!Sorry if everyone thinks i complain, i'll keep it down to a low roar from now on. :) all my lovin,Shanna

Hey, Chris: Being in the DVD you are now truly part of Beatle history! How cool!!! Hope you're in the ABC special, too. Now, how much Paul should you play this Sunday? - As much as you possibly can. I'm getting pretty psyched up for Monday night and would have a Macca filled Sunday. And, if you could play "Mull of Kintrye" I'd absolutely love that. It's such a beautiful song, and you've never played it on BWTB. Paul does not play it in concert, either, so it would be nice to hear it. Ram On!

OK..how about some Beatle News > I saw Paul's upcoming DVD on the BIG SCREEN this week (w/ Paulie in the theater) in Hollywood. It was great! He rented a theater at the Cinerama Dome (now called something else)...and YES our Breakfast w/ the Beatle interview w/ Macca made it in the film...let's hope we also make it into the edited TV version. How much Paul should I play this Sunday? 1 Hour...2....3...Stones?

Ms. Beatle Boots, I know Shanna. She is a very nice young lady and is a Paul fan who would love to hear more Ringo. Ringo has been so overlooked or panned as being a not-so-talented drummer who got lucky by the public as well as some Beatles fans. I, too, am very much a Paul fan but would love to hear more Ringo as well. So what if she doesn't like the Stones/Beatles thing. She does understand the feelings on the subject but thinks BWTB should stay Beatles. She is not alone. I welcome the change but understand her feelings. I am not a Stones fan but am very curious about the show. Lighten up a bit, okay? She is entitled to voice her opinion as well as everyone else is.

Posted by Beatle Janet

Posted On: 10/26/2002
Hey, let's be nice here. Shanna does not complain. She likes Ringo so she just tries to get Chris to play Ringo a bit more. That's o.k. I do love Paul and John the best, but there are four of the fabs and it is good to feature all of their work. And, Ringo does have some great songs. Re: the Beatles vs. Stones thing, I do agree with Shanna as I posted before. I'd much rather hear 5 hours of those Beatles than any Stones stuff. If Chris wants to mix it up a bit, it's o.k. to play other Apple artists. But, let's keep it to the Beatles. I love the show just as it is and Chris does an excellent job featuring those Beatles each Sunday!

Hey, Chris: I love everything you do with the show, but I'm not too excited about the Beatles vs. Stones show. We already know the Beatles are the better band - and I would much rather hear five hours of Beatles tunes, then any Stones. I mean, the Stones are o.k., but not my "cup of tea" on a Sunday morning. Let's stick with the Beatles as a group and solo, and if you want, throw in some of the other Apple artists. Ram On - Staples and Paul are nearly here!

Chris Love the show, and request 'Cry for a Shadow' however I do take issue with a mojor point. While the Stones can claim to be the "worlds greatest rock & roll band", the amazing thing ( one of them anyway) about the Fabs is they ars responsible for changing "rock & roll" into "Rock" music. It's ironic that as much as the Fabs loved country and black music, they with Help-Rubber soul-Revolver, really transformed the genre.Neither their importance, or their musical genius can be overstated.

Where can a person get information on the 1981 Beatlemania movie? Who was in it, ect. Where can I rent a tape so I can see the the movie? Would collectors be interested in owning the original 35 ml. film? (film size for theatrical release) thanks

...& I love John's lyric "There ain't no guru who can see through your eyes" from I Found Out. John the Great Songwriter!

Happy Birthday, John! I have two fav quotes: "We were just a rock and roll band who made it very, very big," and from the song "Old Dirt Road," I love the image of shoveling smoke with a pitchfork in the wind! John really was a great songwriter! Happy Birthday, John, whereever you are!

...my favourite Lennonism is when he said that he & Yoko CAN be apart. They just simply don't wish to. I think that's luv'ly!

I'm not afraid of death because I don't believe in it. It's just getting out of one car, and into another.

Great show for Dr. Winston O'Boogie! Please post your favorite John quotation. John said this in the late 70's: "What's so great about the Rolling Stones being together for 123 years?" Nobody has ever said it better.

I agree w/ EVERYONE'S comments about the Lennon Birthday Special! I salute your salute to the late great singer/songwriter!!!!!!!

Chris: Excellent show this morning - a wonderful tribute to one of the greatest songwriters of all time - John Lennon. Loved the show (but then, I love them all)! Hey, Cathy - wonderful to see you at the House of Blues, too. The AHDN party was fantastic! Finally, remember as you read the news of Bush's desire to start a war -"give peace a chance." It's all I am saying...

This is just my last ditch attempt to request a song even though I know its just John songs this morning BUT ... it would be fitting (and very sweet) to hear "It's Johnny's Birthday" by dear George Harrison. If not, thanks anway (but honestly, it would be nice to hear it, don't you think? hehe)! Tah!

Hey Chris! You are about to play a Lennon/Spector track. Rumor has it that Phil lives in my current hometown, Alhambra, CA!! Maybe he's listening now--Cheers to Alhambra Phil. Don't forgot (I know you won't) It's Johnny's Birthday--coproduced by Phil, yes?

Beatle Janet, so cool seeing you again and meeting the ladies from the Macca board. Chris I saw your car pull-up but I guess you just stayed in the back of the HOB. What an amazing show that was. Loved your interviews last Sunday. How did it feel being in the same room as Beatles royalty?

I was at the DVD launch party at the House of Blues last night and it was great. The Fab Four did a wonderful job,and it was nice to finally meet our host, Beatle Chris. A splendid time was had by all. Now I just have to buy a DVD player, and the AHDN DVD to play in it!

The show gets better each and every week....I like the fact that you don't just play the HITS and go deeper into the Beatles LP tracks...I also LOVE the fact that I get to hear from the SOLO albums too....I love all the early solo stuff from 1970 to 1973...You rule...God Bless The Beatles!!!!

Flew to Las Vegas right after the terrific Fab Four concert on Frida; first BWTB show I've missed in over a YEAR! Yet it is wonderful to be able to come back home & read the setlist on this wonderful website. Beatlewood Anthology; niiiiiiice. Hoping for a repeat of: What's The New Mary Jane (Beatles '68), Dehra Dun, & Lovely Linda (live) sometime this year. xo

Excellent Steven Van Zant interview (though his introduction to "She Said She Said" was cut a tad short). Also dug the "Come Together" diptych. Other Highlights: Hysterical Take 10 of "And Your Bird Can Sing" Kudos for closing with "All the Young Dudes". The line about the "brother back at home with his Beatles and his Stones" took on a welcome irony in this context. Ram On,
