having been lucky enough to see The Beatles live at the Hollywood Bowl there was never going to be any way to get me out of the 60,s. I am still there, I just bought the deluxe Sgt Pepper album and for those interested it is so much better than the original. Researching them became a hobby I have ben doing for about 10 years. It is a lot of fun. It really is better than what you have been listening to all these years...I could start a topic just on them....sorry to go off topic but I really do love that era and band.[/QUOTE
+1 on the 50th Anniversary of Sgt Pepper. Fresh Air had an interview of Giles Martin, son of George Martin (who did the original production). Giles did the remix on the 50th, and the interview provided a lot of info. It's a can't miss for Beatles geeks
Regarding the Hollywood Bowl concert, I hope seeing it live was better than the recording that survived. Was excited when Ron Howard's documentary came out and bought the CD. Too much crowd noise for me to listen to more than once. Great that moment in time was captured, though, don't think we'll ever see that kind of thing again.
