The Beatles Stuffology Podcast

• Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)

  Time for a bit of Scandi fun this episode as we indulge in a bit of Norwegian Wood (missus). Does the song represent a genuinely new direction for The Beatles? Does it actually manage to qualify as poetry? And are there any cover versions that do it justice? Plus we dip into the mailbox for a bit of commentary.   Rankings: Track-by-track Ranking eMail: [email protected] Twitter: @beatles_ology Instagram: beatlesstuffology JG's Blog: Judgementally Reviews… Andrew’s Blog: Stuffology   Produced By: JG McQuarrie

• Drive My Car

  It's time for a fresh new album with a fresh new sound this episode, as JG and Andrew kick off their Rubber Soul discussions with Drive My Car. Does the song prove to be a worthy album opener? Are there any interesting cover versions? Does this truly herald a new period in the band's history? And, perhaps most importantly, why did nobody check out the Beat Bugs episode with this title?

• Day Tripper

  We flip the single this episode to cover the other A side of the first doube-A, Day Tripper. Do Andrew and JG manage to settle which is the best of the two songs? Does Day Tripper stand up to We Can Work It Out's high bar? And how many cover versions do you need to listen to in order to find a decent one?

• We Can Work It Out

  It's time for not only a double-A single but in some ways the double-A single. In this case, Andrew and JG are tackling We Can Work It Out first (despite some faffing about). Is it the better of the two songs on the single? Will they both agree on which song is superior? And does the song work on its own terms?   Rankings: Track-by-track Ranking eMail: [email protected] Twitter: @beatles_ology Instagram: beatlesstuffology JG's Blog: Judgementally Reviews… Andrew’s Blog: Stuffology   Produced By: JG McQuarrie

• I'm Down

  It's something of a minisode this week, as JG and Andrew plug a(nother) gap by covering I'm Down vastly out of sequence (but hey, at least they remembered!). Does the song work as a straightforward rocker? Is there a cover version that might surpass the original? And do minisodes work (answers to the mailbag please!)? Plus... well, plus nothing actually - it is a minisode!   Rankings: Track-by-track Ranking eMail: [email protected] Twitter: @beatles_ology Instagram: beatlesstuffology JG's Blog: Judgementally Reviews… Andrew’s Blog: Stuffology   Produced By: JG McQuarrie
