Macca is bacca
"That's not a banjo, that's a mandolin!"
The video for Paul McCartney's new single "Dance Tonight" was directed by eccentric auter Michel Gondry.
In a related note, 40 years ago June 1, "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" hit record store shelves. Idolator has the snarky commentary. And true, boomers are very excited about their own selves (I went to a press preview for the Whitney's Summer of Love exhibition this morning, which drove home that point exquisitely), but there's no denying this concept album's place in music history. From 6th to 8th grades, "Sgt. Pepper" and "Help" were the only albums I listened to. Not the only Beatles albums, mind you, only albums period. I was a weird kid.

god i hate blogs with hundred of comments to plow through, i much prefer something like this.
also, your a much better writer than that idolator. as far as Sgt Peppers, it was never my favorite album, from about ever since i remember being alive(age 2?) to about 10 the beatles were all i listened to as well, and my favorite were A Hard Days Night/Help era and Yellow Submarine era. Sgt Peppers i got introduced to that through the Bee Gees movie so thats why maybe im a little put off by it even now. never really understood why it was put on such a high pedestal...
Thanks so much for your continued positive comments. It's really nice to know that someone is reading.
I loved the movie "A Hard Days Night." I think even today it holds up well as a film.
