#67 - EXTRA! Beatles 'Abbey Road' crossing 50th anniversary special
from Beatles News Briefs · host Steve Marinucci
On this very special EXTRA! show taped Aug. 8 on the 50th anniversary of the Beatles' photo shoot for the cover of the "Abbey Road" album, we cover the story internationally. We discuss the announcement and the new sets, plus we have exclusive interviews with three distinguished Beatles authors who have written recent books on the album -- Ken McNab ("And In the End"), Kenneth Womack ("Solid State: The Story of Abbey Road and the End of the Beatles") and Bruce Spizer ("The Beatles Get Back To Abbey Road"). We interviewed them on Wednesday after the rumors broke about the announcement and we discuss it with all of them. Bruce Spizer, who was in London, has heard the new mixes and gives a little preview. Thanks for listening! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You can binge listen to all of our episodes free at Podbean, on YouTube or on our Beatles News Briefs blog page.
