Winter of Discontent - A Beatles Podcast

Ringo gets a bit huffy with Denis O’Dell. Paul talks about booze and cigars. John wants to keep rehearsing the same song over and over and George learns more about the Hare Krishna movement.

In a more dialogue heavy episode we get to hear from George Martin, Denis O’Dell and Glyn Johns. Everyone is discussing the relative merits and pitfalls of their location.

Paul arrives but has to wait for a replacement bass. The band play him Don’t Let Me Down but rather than finish that they start on a new Lennon/McCartney collaboration.

January 2nd 1969. John, George and Ringo are the only Beatles present on the Twickenham soundstage. While waiting for Paul they rehearse a new John song.

It’s January 2nd 1969. Filming and Audio recording begins on The Beatles new project. First John and George arrive followed by Ringo. Paul is late.

The last months of 1968 were busier than you might expect. Each Beatle went on their own path. George became a Producer, John and Yoko built upon their brand, Ringo became a movie star and Paul found his soul mate.

My name is Nick and I’ll be your guide as we take a trip back in time to January 1969 and the recordings of the Beatles Get Back project. We’ll get a chance to listen to the conversations and learn what really happened during those sessions, without having to endure endless tuneless jams. Coming to your Podcast platform 1st January 2021
