“We’ve been looking for it for 50 years, and I got it back”: Paul McCartney’s long-lost Höfner returns to the stage for the first time in 50 years, as he enlists Ronnie Wood and Ringo Starr for an epic tour finale

I’ve waited for Paul to come on stage every time I’ve seen Ringo, and missed the LA show where Ringo got on stage at Paul’s concert at Dodger Stadium. It’s so cool that he got the Hornet back, and is now using it.

Bob Dylan & Israel, The Neighborhood Bully

It may not be his best song, but Dylan’s 1983 song about Israel is surprisingly resonant today.

This album came out when I was in high school and I immediately totally fell in love with this song. It is truly amazing that it has become even more relevant through the years. When I used to DJ, I’d play it sometimes (even though almost no one but me knew what it was about) to show both my pride in being Jewish, and in Israel.

If you want to listen to it, you can copy and paste this:

The Beatles’ ‘Red’ And ‘Blue’ Albums at 50: Celebrating the Greatest ‘Greatest Hits’ Records Ever

The Beatles Red and Blue Albums: The Greatest Hits Album Ever Made

The first Beatles album I bought was a cassette of the Blue album in 1979. It's interesting to look back and realize that I was part of the first Beatles revival which is still the basis for the "modern" context in which The Beatles are viewed. The article is dishonest, as usual for Rolling Stone, about this being Allen Klein's only positive thing that he did for the band. He actually did quite a lot, and the Beatles themselves acknowledged that, including his first act for the band - which was a massive reworking of their royalty deal with EMI. Klein still gets a bad wrap because most of the people who write about him.=, and this era, hate business people, and the business side of the music was, correctly, always his first priority.

I love music. I have since I was a child. This song has always resonated with me, although I’ve never been sure why. This version of song makes that reaction much clearer to me. These two Hasids bring out something even more emotional in it. It has something to do with the timelessness of Judaism, the eternal nature of the message that the secular world is empty, and that without G-d, you have nothing. It’s the message of the prophets referred to here. Normally, I wouldn’t ascribe such grandiosity to a (mostly) secular song. But I know that these two brothers know exactly what I’m talking about/

You we people have no idea how young rock n roll really is. So many of the pioneers are still here. Jerry Allison was one of the big ones. I always wanted to go see The Crickets. I missed my chance-but just like so many of the early rockers, music would be fundamentally different of it wasn’t for them. At least anything other than rap, electronic dance music, and the totally bland pop of today (i.e. music that has melody instead of just a beat alone). Unfortunately, a relentlessly homogenized music industry is killing any possibility that we will ever see as hugely creative a period in music as we saw for most of the 20th century ever again.
