Personal Changes
It’s a beautiful sight, isn’t it; this little farm just 2 miles down the road from the park we live in. It’s been 10 years since this little town seemed like the template for a fresh start. Honey Brook saved me. I mean that quite literally.
This is where I moved my life and my w...

Abbey Road Side 2 Medley – Re-re-remix
Giles screwed the poochie. Let’s just be real about it. The Abbey Road 50th Anniversary remix was less than stellar. Poor Ringo sounded like he was shoved in a closet and told to play with a tin bucket over his head. While everything else was re-equalized to some degree, the orchestra remai...
Audio Restoration – The Beatles’ First Radio Session – Teenager’s Turn – Here We Go
This seems to be as good of a place to start as any. The date was March 7, 1962. Pete Best was still their drummer.
