Reminder - all Beatles, all weekend



One of many comments received by the ABC:


Hot HOT summer day '68. On the floor of the lounge at the holiday house at Port Elliot.
Should have been at the beach but Sgt Pepper's was on the new AWA stereo.
Waiting for the creaky chair in that long ending - so we could play it again.
How I loved Lucy in the Sky...




And here this is. A sometimes cruel, always fair, reassessment of the music that made us when we still could be made. Click on each one. Wallow.
