I think Help is best that way (US). It is my favorite early Beatles album. Oddly enough - they ended up using the US version of Magical Mystery Tour as the standard going forward.

I think with The Who it's like that until The Who Sell Out.

I think I have read over the years it had to do with how much money they could make off of albums (Capitol). They were shorter and included the hit singles. The UK albums were longer and did not include the singles. There is also the sound issue - fake stereo and added echo (Capitol). There is also the The Beatles Story and Hey Jude albums. I never had those when I was a kid.

That's right. Sgt. Pepper was the first to be the same in the UK and US.

I finally got the Beatles US albums boxset on cd. So I can hear those records the way I first heard them over 50 years ago. Although - they don't sound exactly the same.

I've watched a few documentaries about Northern Soul by way of Youtube over the past few years.

There's no Wigan Casino here.

Are you yobs going to see Oasis this year?

I would love to be standing in front of Richard Thompson while be played the solo in Autopsy. If they ever do that song.

Did you guys ever go to the [Fairport Convention] Cropedy Festival?

Thank you and him.

That should be 2001. No source has appeared that I know of -

I only watched it once. I am thinking about watching it again this summer. I like those European show. The Mire, Signs, Detective Forst, The Woods, The Chestnut Man, Cassandra, Black Spot, etc.

Did you finish Dark?

I bought the book that goes along with that documentary a while back. It was down to 20 bucks on Amazon. I have not really looked a it yet - but it appears to be a transcript of the whole thing plus photographs.

I just now noticed this post - I think you have to request it and then it goes to me and I approve it. I have not uploaded since January 2024 I think. There are not that many shows anymore out there to grab, when they do appear - it is usually on Dime a Dozen. They did not have free leach this past Christmas. So I was not able to get the shows I had hoped to get. I don't really have the time to spend on this - at least as much I used to spend. And then there is the fact that Wilco no longer allows taping anyhow.

What a time that was - The Derailers, Old 97's, Blue Mountain, The Jayhawks, Whiskeytown, Hazeldine, The Bottle Rockets, Son Volt, Uncle Tupelo, etc.

It was the late 1980s. It went off in 1989. Peter Davidson, Colin Baker, Sylvester McCoy The really great thing is Ace (Sophie Aldred). Also - the American made Dr. Who movie from 1996.

I watched that entire show when we went into lock-down/furloughed for two months in 2020.

Thanks to King Charles III - we can now watch Dr. Who on Youtube. I was able to pick up where I left off about 12 years ago. Season 23-24-25-26.

We can't all be David Watts you know.

She's from my state - couple hours away from me.

Yea - that one. I had not seen it until recently.

I will have to look it up. Finally got to see last episode of Detectorists - had to pay to watch it on Amazon.
