#111 - Imagining All the People - An interview with author and poet Marcus Benjamin Ray Bradley

from Beatles News Briefs · host Steve Marinucci

Imagine if the people in the Beatles' songs were real? That's what author Marcus Benjamin Ray Bradley's new book, "Imagining All the People" is all about -- a poetic re-telling of the people imagined in the lyrics of the Beatles in their songs. Bradley discusses the idea behind the book, the cooperative effort that put it together and his work in writing it. It's a geeky idea that takes the Beatles' songs places you'd never thought they'd go. Plus we have some late-breaking Beatles News Briefs. Have a listen! (You can find a video version on YouTube.)                 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can binge listen to all of our episodes free at Podbean, on YouTube or on our Beatles News Briefs blog page.
