The Beatles: Abbey Road (1969) (... with Emmerson, our 5th Beatle!) Ep. 5

Hello, people of earth!

This week we are talking about the final album The Beatles ever made. Abbey Road! To help us out we have a special guest and self not proclaimed expert EMMERSON! He helps us break down what makes this album so special and how it can be view through the lens of The Beatles breaking up.

We also explore the ins and outs of the PAUL IS DEAD conspiracy theory and talk the world of live music in 2020. We discuss the dangers of wearing headphones while listening to the podcast and we even break down the best song by everyone's favorite and most thought of instrument. Hey, if it is not Baroque, don't fix it!

Finally, we weigh in on the medley on the second side of the album. Most beautiful thing in the world or a bunch of bits and bobs? And where does Her Majesty belong anyway? And what was Aaron doing when his parents left the house? (The answer probably won't surprise you.)

Mostly this episode is an excuse for everyone to say mean things about Rob. He is a good-natured guy and loves to have some fun now and then,but people shouldn't be so mean to him! Oh well, most of the hosts don't read this anyway.

If you want to hear less about Aaron not owning a microwave or maybe you have something to say about it, call the BECK LINE at 802 277 2325 (BECK) and leave us a message to play on the podcast.
