Let It Be (1970) 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition Part 3

Move over thrice!!! As part three of our Let It Be 50th Anniversary gabfest, T.J. and Tony inspect the Glyn Johns mixes of 1969's Get Back LP, along with the 12" 4-song EP. Then they crack open the new Get Back book, providing Cliff Notes (and Norm Notes) for its 200 pages, give or take a two. Along the way:
📻 Tony reveals the identity of the villain who calls in all those pesky Beatles covers to 93 XRT
🎸 T.J. offers Garageband tutorials on editing out the new pre-song chatter to "Don't Let Me Down"
🚀 We can all agree that everything sounds better when it is "Super High Mastered"

Let It Be (1970) 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition Part 2

Move over twice! It's Part 2 of the runaway train that is The Untitled Beatles Podcast as it careens around the Let It Be 50th anniversary box set. This week T.J. and Tony wax ecstatic about Side Two's 2021 mixes then trade favorite studio outtakes. Also, they grumble about what was curiously left off, though they don't know why they're moaning.
Along the way they ask:
📦 Who packaged it better: Universal Music Group or Dr. Ebbetts?
👄 How many ways can two people pronounce the word “warble”?
🎭 What is the name of Paul McCartney’s improv workshoppe and do current students get a discount?
Plus a "controversial" word has T.J. stumbling into blooper hell. You'd hate to miss this train, oh yeah!

Let It Be (1970) 50th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition Part 1

It may have arrived (without traveling/and to prove it, it’s here) a year late, but the Let It Be 50th anniversary box set is finally in our hands. To date, we have 4 LPs! Multiple CDs! BluRay audio! One random EP! And a book! And another book! There’s so much to digest in this universally excellent deluxe set and Get Back book, that this is officially a THREE PART EPISODE. Buckle up, Untitled Beatle People... And, sure, you can say Part 1 of this deep dish is attractively built, even if you’ve never let us be naked. Uh, what? Exactly. And as if there wasn’t a ton of Let It Be material to cover, Tony & T.J. still find time to ask the hard questions, like:
 🧇 Who released better 45s, The Beatles or The Waffle House?
  Ü  Is T.J.’s favorite Hansen song "Umlaut"?
 🎙 Should Tony get a "Poddy" (a podcast Emmy, maybe?) for his dramatic reenactment of Paul McCartney’s letter to Allen Klein? 
As Hulk Hogan once said, "You don’t need drugs to move your feet. So when the dealer tries to push on you, just tell him: leave me alone, I’m subscribing to the Untitled Beatles Podcast here!" And, maybe leave us a review wherever you listen, lest Rowdy Roddy Piper’s ghost come back to F you up.

The Beatles and Sampling Part 2

The Samples are among Vermont’s finest exports, along with “Newhart”. We don’t get into either in Part 2 of The Beatles & Sampling, but we do explore how DJ’s and better-than-tribute-bands took the work of The Beatles and other artists to weird and sometimes unexpectedly great places. Along the way, DJ’s “Mama” Cas and “This Yam Is Your” Yam yif yif yif about a lot more, like: 
🍌 Is joining The Banana Convention worth the risk of smoking, even if the stakes are a dance at Stephen Decatur high school on Saturday night? 
👶🏻 Does the new Nirvana “Nevermind” 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition include their rare duet with the Pointer Sisters? 
🎸 Anyone up for a GoFundMe to help Beatallica sue the “Yesterday” movie for stealing one of their signature bits? 
All this, plus Tony damn straight guaranteeing that we will get to the “Let It Be” 50th and Get Back book next week, and the week after that, and the week after that… Download & subscribe here and here. And leave a review or some likes if you’re feelin’ randy. And maybe ask Randy first.

The Beatles and Sampling Part 1

This week, the Untitled Beatles Podcast introduces new hosts, Casio and Yamaha, who kick off a two-parter all about The Beatles and sampling.
From “Yellow Submarine” to, arguably, the greatest Beatles single, “Movie Medley”, Cas & Yam go over some of their favorite samples used by the Fabs and, later, disco-lovin’ producers who were not at all on loads of cocaine. Along the way, the Gab Two get down to the nitty gritty Beatles hot topics the old hosts were, frankly, too cowardly to address, like:
🤠Who would you rather see at legendary Chicago venue Schubas: Cowboy Mouth or Hillbilly Teeth?
⚾️ Does Tony bat 1.000 while strenuously trying to pronounce difficult European last names?
💡Where does T.J. place 37th Beatle Kenny Loggins on the list of great artists who, like Steve Perry, obviously influenced the Beatles?
To all of our priest listeners, we say sit you down, Father, rest you…as you download and subscribe to our show here. And if you leave us a review, Cas and Yam will send you totally legal re-enactments of laugh track-free episodes of M*A*S*H.

A Collection of Beatles Newsies

Extra! Texture! Is not featured in this episode. This one’s chock-full of #BreakingBeatlesNews, of which there’s been a lot these last few weeks. Tony & T.J. delve into Ringo’s new E.P., Macca’s eye-opening interview in The New Yorker, the first released tracks from the "Let It Be" remix, and much more. Along the way, they ponder/pander:
    Did Ringo have a Babyfaced "Premonition" while watching a John Travolta flick in ‘96 that would Change The World?
    Did Tony’s steadfast allegiance to Phar-Mor help destroy an iconic Chicagoland record store chain?
    Is nudie T.J. always Yoko, or only when re-enacting the cover of Tetragrammaton’s hundred seller, "Two Virgins"?
Look, folks, Tony and T.J. are the Ron Magers and Carol Marin of Beatles podcasts. (Producer Casey is a respectable Allison Rosati.) So trust us to give it to you straight, on A Collection of Beatles Newsies, dateline 16 October 2021, Chicago, U.S.A.

[Originally issued August 8, 2020]
After a brief tease of their other hit podcast “Talkin’ Prov,” T.J. and Tony delve into their favorite solo John Lennon songs. During which, Tony explores therapy for his relationship with Catholicism, and T.J. ponders the whereabouts of Vanessa Williams. Attention linguists: In this episode T.J. coins the word “bagpack” while Tony employs the adjective “CD-shaped.”Plus, T.J. and Tony swap “getting dosed” stories. Facked cheque: John Cage beat everyone to the silent punch with “4’33”” in 1952.
