Kittens On Legendary Album Covers

Hey, Beatlemaniacs!!

So, as I was browsing Facebook this morning, I came across a link one of my friends posted. It's too awesome! KITTENS ON LEGENDARY ALBUM COVERS!!

In honor of the anniversary of the US release of "Double Fantasy" I decided to post this pic from the article..
To see more, including more Beatles-related covers, visit The Kitten Covers on Tumblr.

Surprise, Surprise!!

I'm sorry, I've been on a "John and Yoko" trip all day. I just love their relationship! They both loved and knew eachother like no other. It was apparent in their music together, it was apparent in their photos together, and it's apparent in this very simple video... plain and simple, they didn't need love..... they had plenty of it and shared it with one another..

Here we have John playing the melody of "Julia" and singing his bridge lyrics from "I've Got A Feeling".... simple and sweet..

Did Yoko Ono Cause the End of The Beatles? Follow-up!

After posting my last entry (Below) I visited TheBeatleSubmarine channel and finished watching Kimberly's November 17th video that I had started watching before going on the air to host The Big Beat. It's way too much of a coincidence that the day Kimberly posted her video, in which she talks about the Yoko Ono/Beatles topic, is also the day that Fingers and I have our discussion on the matter! CreEeEeEpy!

Here's Kimberly's video. She begins the Yoko topic around the 3:30 mark. But, please do yourself a favor and show some love; watch the whole vid. It's too awesome and very insightful!

Did Yoko Ono Cause the End of The Beatles? Bob and Fingers Discuss

Hey, Beatlemaniacs!

Although full podcasts of The Big Beat are in hold for now, I have been able to upload a segment of November 17th's episode of The Big Beat in which Fingers, my fellow broadcaster, and I engaged in the dispute that has had Beatlemaniacs worldwide talking; Did Yoko Ono break up The Beatles? Listen for yourself..



THE BIG BEAT - 11-17-11; Bob and Fingers Discuss by therealdjbob

I mention Linda Eastman McCartney in this dipute, not as a detractor, but she has also been blamed for the Beatles' end. I completely dig Paul and Linda's romantic and artistic relationship. As with Paul, John had a woman who supported him and helped guide him in his own direction. Why is that so hard to understand and accept?

Carly of TheBeatleScruffs took our invitation to provide her opinion on my FaceBook page..

I was happy to continue the topic with Carly after the show.
I could not have put it better than Carly in that last entry; "The Beatles ended, but Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da"

A great thanks to Fingers for joining me in the studio and to Carly for taking part in our discussion.

WELCOME, NEW BEATLESCRUFFS!!!

Recently, due to conflicting schedules, school, lack of time, etc. TheBeatleScruffs lost a few members. However they swiftly began accepting auditions for two new weekly Scruffs and one new alternate Scruff.

After careful deliberation, TheBeatleScruffs are happy to welcome their three new members;

Monday Sruff - Brad from Sydney, Australia

CONGRATULATIONS to the new BeatleScruffs!!!

Again, huge congrats to the new members. I will post Katherine's vid soon after she debuts on TheBeatleScruffs.
