2017-03-20: Yesterday e a versão electrónica?

Uou! Ainda há surpresas sobre os Beatles vindas de PM? Parece que sim:
http://www.openculture.com/2013/03/meet_the_idr_whoi_composer_who_almost_turned_the_beatles_yesterday_into_early_electronica.html

Citando:
"The March issue of UK monthly music magazine Q recently hit newsstands, featuring a Beatles 50th anniversary cover with an inset promising Macca Speaks!”. Did we need another Paul McCartney interview, you may well ask? Is there anything Beatles-related left to tell? It seems there is. McCartney reveals that he once gave serious consideration to using an electronic backing for the 1965 recording of “Yesterday” instead of the string arrangement he ended up with. Now, in itself, this may not seem noteworthy except that, well, it was 1965… what did “electronic” even mean in music at the time?

To find out, we should get acquainted with Delia Derbyshire, composer and arranger at the BBC’s Radiophonic Workshop, who would have scored McCartney’s electronic “Yesterday.” Derbyshire is now best known as the composer of the classic 1963 theme to the original Dr. Who series (above), a fact we will return to. (...)"

Beatles em Capas da Q Magazine

Eis uma lista (não exaustiva) de capas da Q Magazine (a melhor revista de música do mundo - e arredores!) com destaques para os Beatles.

Algumas entrevistas parecem interessantes, a ver.

2015-03-06: Capa da Q Magazine parodia Sgt. Pepper's

Tenho uma certeza e uma dúvida;:
- Yesterday é a música com mais versões gravadas (de acordo com o Guiness Book of Records).
- Sgt. Pepper's é a capa mais parodiada de sempre? Ou será o Abbey Road?

A capa da Q Magazine (a melhor revista de música do mundo - de acordo com a opinião deles) parodia a capa do álbum Sgt. Pepper's.

O tema é "The album that changed my life" e suspeito que os Beatles aparecem algures mais.

PS: Existem imensas capas desta revista sobre os Beatles, McCartney e Lennon com artigos / entrevistas dignas de registo (for future reference). Podem ser vistas aqui.

PS2: Mais um recorde batido por Sir Paul McCartney (este envolve a Estação Espacial Internacional) aqui.
