I'm flipping through Super Deluxe Revolver right now. She Said is one of my favorites as well. Ringo's drumming is fantastic on that one.
Taxman is one of my favorite album openers. lindy
IMO, this article doesn't really have a lot new to say about the new remastered Revolver release, but you might think differently, so have at it:
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/31/arts/music/the-beatles-revolver-reissue.html?action=click&module=Well&pgtype=Homepage§ion=Music Thanks, Lindy. I'll be interested in listening to the new re-mix of the album. There's a lot of separation in/on the original album, something that went with the territory back in the day.
Belgium 1964. The coolest bunch of bankers and insurance salesmen ever. Love the shoot angles and the listening intensity on their faces.
Wow, that is a complete gas, Slack! Thanks for the find. That is major happy-making. The audience and the players are all having so much fun. That made my day!
ha!, yeah it's really good. Classical has such a struggle to attract young audiences. It looked like lots of young Venezuelans in the audience though... many/most in blue jeans and t-shirts.

Slack's comment about classical music struggling to find young fans reminded me of a film I recently watched on the pbs.org website, called "Children of Las Brisas." It's about three Venezuelan kids growing up in a gang-dominated neighborhood. They see classical music as a way to escape their situations. The country was also falling apart politically during the 10 years it took to do all the shooting of film footage.
I can't embed the vid, you need to go to https://www.pbs.org/independentlens/, scroll *down* to the "WATCH NOW" section, then scroll *right* to the Las Brisas link. 90 minutes, worth the time, a powerful film. Revised to add: in my experience, pbs gives free access to these films for XX days, then you need to be a member of your local pbs station to watch them. If you're interested, you might not want to delay watching it. Lindy Gustavo Dudamel, Star Maestro, to Leave L.A. for New York Philharmonic
https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/07/arts/music/new-york-philharmonic-gustavo-dudamel.html That's a nice write up. Never heard of him until I came across the video - now he appears on the cover of NYT! Quite the accomplished conductor at age 42, wow.
I have been completely engrossed in the guitar based classical music of Mauritania which uncannily resembles blues on many levels.
