More about "Everything Was Right - The Beatles
Revolver"
When rock music critics and fans are
asked to rank the top rock albums of all-time, The Beatles' 1966 release
Revolver either tops the list or falls into the top tier. In recent
years, Revolver has been outpolling The Beatles'
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band as The Beatles' most
impressive collection. On Revolver, The Beatles experimented with
both new sounds and new subject matter - pioneering psychedelic rock on
some tracks and exhibiting extraordinary song-craft on others.
To mark the 40th
anniversary year of Revolver's release, award-winning producer Paul
Ingles (producer of The Emergence of Bob
Dylan,
and The Beatles in America-1964) presents a
two-hour public radio special entitled EVERYTHING WAS RIGHT: THE
BEATLES' REVOLVER AT 40. Ingles hosts an in-depth exploration of the
landmark album's story and influence by talking with historians,
musicians, music critics and fans. Each Revolver track (along
with the 1966 single Paperback Writer and Rain) is given the spotlight
treatment.
The first hour of the
program will focus on Side 1 of the original British release plus the
Paperback Writer single. Hour two features the songs on Side 2 and Rain,
the single's flip side. Listeners will hear about the sources for the
tunes, the studio experiments The Beatles used to get their
ground-breaking sounds, and the lasting impact of the collection on the
pop/rock music scene. For some segments, rarely heard studio outtakes
and song demos will guide listeners through the band's creative process
on the way to the finished tracks.
