08 Geoff Lloyd on 'The Lyrics' by Paul McCartney

Podcaster supremo and (importantly for this episode) Beatles obsessive Geoff Lloyd joins Jude for a Songbook deep dive. Getting together to unpick Paul McCartney's recent bestseller The Lyrics, revelations abound. From Geoff telling Jude how his wife uses The Beatles as a carrot to get him to do stuff to whether Macca admits to watching bad films about himself. They discuss how hard it is to get McCartney off-script, the Beatles' skill at legacy-building and whether Geoff will admit to having a favourite Beatle.  For fans and non-fans alike.Books mentioned in the podcast:Paul McCartney: Many Years from Now by Barry Miles (used only) https://bit.ly/3TPTDiTRevolution in the Head by Ian McDonald https://bit.ly/3AYFffyOne Two Three Four by Craig Brown https://bit.ly/3BnAn5mPostcards from the Boys by Ringo Starr (used only) https://bit.ly/3KVnW3JThe Beatles - All These Years Vol. I by Mark Lewisohn https://uk.bookshop.org/books/the-beatles-all-these-years-volume-one-tune-in/9781408705759Hunter DaviesMy Life in Pictures by Pattie Boyd https://uk.bookshop.org/books/my-life-in-pictures/9781909526907How to be Invisible by Kate Bush https://uk.bookshop.org/books/how-to-be-invisible/9780571350940You can buy Jude's book The Sound of Being Human: How Music Shapes Our Lives here: https://uk.bookshop.org/books/the-sound-of-being-human-how-music-shapes-our-lives/9781474622929Finally White Rabbit's Spotify Playlist of 'booksongs' - songs inspired by books loved by our guests - is here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7chuHOeTs9jpyKpmgXV6uo Hosted on Acast.
