190 - Magical Mystery Tour

Jen and Tim suffer through the half-baked hippie whimsy of the Beatles' first major creative cock-up, Magical Mystery Tour.If you're curious, you can watch the Pet Shop Boys' head-scratcher of a longform music video, It Couldn't Happen Here, at the Internet Archive. It looks like it was ripped from someone's VCD copy of a Hong Kong laserdisc, but it still has plenty of bops!The Anton Corbijn-directed Strange (A Black and White Mode) incorporates all those songs that Tim says you know from Depeche Mode's Music for the Masses. You can watch it right now on YouTube, but a restored DVD and Blu-ray release will arrive in December. Still mad at Paul McCartney?
