Citando:
"Tomorrow (August 31) marks the 50th anniversary of Apple Records, the artist-friendly label that The Beatles founded when when they returned from their famous mind-expanding trip to India. Back then, the venture was touted as a compassionate alternative to the stranglehold of major labels, with an emphasis on an open-minded, creative atmosphere, rather than one designed to make its bosses bags of money. (They already had bags of money)."

"Imagine the legendary rock guitarist who bustled up our hedgerows appearing onstage with the band that recorded a double album around Paramahansa Yogananda’s “Autobiography of a Yogi.” The idea seems, as the Brits say, not bloody likely – but it came to pass in the summer of 1984, when Jimmy Page joined Yes for a live rendition of the Beatles‘ “I’m Down.”"
(...)
"The June 24, 1984, concert, which took place in Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, Germany, found the newly re-ascendant Yes touring triumphantly behind their hit 90125 LP. But just a few years before,  they’d reached one of their periodic low points, with the band going on hiatus following the turbulence of 1980’s Drama. Page was also struggling, coping with depression after the sudden death of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham and the group’s subsequent breakup.

2018-08: Várias versões da capa do Abbey Road

Citando:
"The Beatles once planned to call their second 1969 album Everest, after their engineer’s favorite brand of cigarettes. In a logical, if expensive and time-consuming move, they originally intended to travel to the Himalayas to shoot the cover photo. But with the increasingly fractured group unwilling to make that voyage together, McCartney instead sketched out a much easier concept. The album’s title was also changed to the name of the street that was home to their long-time recording studio.

The simplicity of the photograph’s set-up is obviously a major reason such a large number of artists have used Abbey Road homages as their own cover art. Not everybody can commission Klaus Voormann to create an incredible collage of line drawings, or arrange for a room full of life-sized cut-outs of various historical figures. But to recreate Abbey Road, all you really need is a street with a white-striped crosswalk – and as you can see below, even that’s negotiable."

"During an extended cut of his “Carpool Karaoke” segment that was filmed in his hometown of Liverpool and aired on Monday’s episode of The Late Late Show, the former Beatle revealed his reaction to the far-fetched fan theory. “We just kind of let it go,” he explained.

McCartney also discussed the time he spent nine days in a Japanese prison after getting caught with marijuana at the Tokyo airport in 1980. “I still am hazy as to how that happened, but it did,” he said. “And in my suitcase, yes, there was some marijuana in the suitcase. And I ended up in jail.”"
