Mmmm that clip brings back fond memories of serious discussion with a friend of mine on "Is Paul Alive??", and then sifting through all the evidence we could find...
Now I'm eight bits...

WOS "I Want You". I always found this quite ponderous.  Apparently this is one of the low-lights of Across the Universe.

What is Across the Universe?  (apart from the obvious...)


New movie coming out soon, with lots of Beatles covers.

Came out today, actually.  The Chron (Hartlaub, i think) gave it a pretty positive review.

I like it, ponderous and lyrically weak though it is.

With all apologies (to you and Goldie), I will BOS this out of a stellar set.  I love the extended ending.  It does plod a bit, but that's part of the affect.

This is an uncharacteristically long set for the 60's.  10:45 and still going strong with CCR.

Nope -- the pattern generally is the oldest year gets played at 7am. They think old folks get up early, I guess.  Sometime we get lucky, but more often than not, it's '60s at 7.

Easiest bonus quiz ever.

Nice choice with 49 bye byes, but I would have chosen Taj Mahal.
