Reverend Jax Posted November 22, 2008 Share Posted November 22, 2008 The Vatican forgives John Lennon for saying the Beatles were more popular than Jesus in 1966. This story is kind of ridiculous. The article says that the Vatican forgave Lennon because it was just 'youthful boasting.' 42 years later, and people still don't understand what John was saying in that interview. He was saying that it seemed to him that teens cared more about rock music than about Jesus, and he wasn't saying it as though it was a good thing.

MetalHeart Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 (edited) From http://www.thebeatles.com/core/news/THE BEATLES' ENTIRE ORIGINAL RECORDED CATALOGUE REMASTERED We are delighted to announce the release of the original Beatles catalogue, which has been digitally re-mastered for the first time, for worldwide CD release on Wednesday, September 9, 2009 (09-09-09), the same date as the release of the widely anticipated "The Beatles: Rock Band" video game.Each of the CDs is packaged with replicated original UK album art, including expanded booklets containing original and newly written liner notes and rare photos. For a limited period, each CD will also be embedded with a brief documentary film about the album. On the same date, two new Beatles boxed CD collections will also be released.The albums have been re-mastered by a dedicated team of engineers at EMI's Abbey Road Studios in London over a four year period utilising state of the art recording technology alongside vintage studio equipment, carefully maintaining the authenticity and integrity of the original analogue recordings. The result of this painstaking process is the highest fidelity the catalogue has seen since its original release.The collection comprises all 12 Beatles albums in stereo, with track listings and artwork as originally released in the UK, and 'Magical Mystery Tour,' which became part of The Beatles' core catalogue when the CDs were first released in 1987. In addition, the collections 'Past Masters Vol. I and II' are now combined as one title, for a total of 14 titles over 16 discs. This will mark the first time that the first four Beatles albums will be available in stereo in their entirety on compact disc. These 14 albums, along with a DVD collection of the documentaries, will also be available for purchase together in a stereo boxed set.Within each CD's new packaging, booklets include detailed historical notes along with informative recording notes. With the exception of the 'Past Masters' set, newly produced mini-documentaries on the making of each album, directed by Bob Smeaton, are included as QuickTime files on each album. The documentaries contain archival footage, rare photographs and never-before-heard studio chat from The Beatles, offering a unique and very personal insight into the studio atmosphere.A second boxed set has been created with the collector in mind. 'The Beatles in Mono' gathers together, in one place, all of the Beatles recordings that were mixed for a mono release. It will contain 10 of the albums with their original mono mixes, plus two further discs of mono masters (covering similar ground to the stereo tracks on 'Past Masters'). As an added bonus, the mono "Help!" and "Rubber Soul" discs also include the original 1965 stereo mixes, which have not been previously released on CD. These albums will be packaged in mini-vinyl CD replicas of the original sleeves with all original inserts and label designs retained.Discussions regarding the digital distribution of the catalogue will continue. There is no further information available at this time.Ok all Beatle Rockband info moved to Nintendorks http://www.hondosbar.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=9986 Edited June 2, 2009 by MetalHeart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NZA Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 The Beatles 2? Sir Paul McCartney's son James hints at next generation of band The 34-year-old said he was "up for it" and John Lennon's son, Sean, and George Harrison's son, Dhani, had also shown support for the idea, although Ringo Starr's son, drummer Zak, was less keen. James told the BBC: "I don't think it's something that Zak wants to do. "Maybe Jason [another of Starr's sons and also a drummer] would want to do it. "I'd be up for it. Sean seemed to be into it, Dhani seemed to be into it. I'd be happy to do it." James said that the idea had already been mooted "a little bit". Asked if a new Beatles could happen, he said: "Yeah, hopefully, naturally. I don't know, you'd have to wait and see. The will of God, nature's support, I guess. So yeah, maybe." The singer-songwriter, who's played guitar on two his father's albums Flaming Pie and Driving Rain, is following in his father's footsteps by playing a gig at Liverpool's famous Cavern Club on Tuesday. The Cavern is where the Beatles played dozens of gigs before hitting the big time. James said is had been "beautiful" working with his father, who co-produced two of his EPs, including sessions at the Abbey Road studios. Asked about his relationship with Sir Paul, he said: "It's amazing. Sometimes in the past, a few years ago, it can be difficult, it can be tense, like families can get. But beyond that it's beautiful. "He's a genius, he's beyond genius, and he's a big inspiration. Very intellectual and obviously amazing at what he does, so it's great fun. He helps me get in tune with myself and be the best person that I can be." James admitted that having the name McCartney was "a help" in the music business and it was "an honour" to be connected to his father. He said that as a schoolboy he'd dreamt of "being better than The Beatles", adding: "I'm not sure if I can do that. If anything, I would love to be equal to The Beatles - but even that's quite tough." Sean & Julian Lennon Dhani Harrison Zak Starr Jason Starr Future teen heart throb, James McCartney ....couldn't be worse than the Wallflowers?

The NZA Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 RIP Ravi Shankar NEW DELHI (AP) — Ravi Shankar, the sitar virtuoso who became a hippie musical icon of the 1960s after hobnobbing with the Beatles and who introduced traditional Indian ragas to Western audiences over a 10-decade career, died Tuesday. He was 92. A statement on the musician's website said he died in San Diego, near his Southern California home. The musician's foundation issued a statement saying that he had suffered upper respiratory and heart problems and had undergone heart-valve replacement surgery last week. Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh also confirmed his death and called Shankar a "national treasure." Labeled "the godfather of world music" by George Harrison, Shankar helped millions of classical, jazz and rock lovers discover the centuries-old traditions of Indian music. He also pioneered the concept of the rock benefit with the 1971 Concert For Bangladesh. To later generations, he was known as the estranged father of popular American singer Norah Jones. His last musical performance was with his other daughter, sitarist Anoushka Shankar Wright, on Nov. 4 in Long Beach, California; his foundation said it was to celebrate his 10th decade of creating music. The multiple Grammy winner learned that he had again been nominated for the award the night before his surgery. Norah Jones was his daughter, too, apparently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
