George Harrison and the T-Bone steak, rock fantasy football teams & spot the AI lyrics!
byMark Ellen, David Hepworth and Alex Gold

Conversational footballs punted about the park this week include …

 

… why George Harrison’s trip to Benton, Illinois, in 1963 would make a great Netflix drama – the $400 Rickenbacker, the local gig billed as “the English Elvis”, the roller-skating waitresses. “I’m in a band called the Beatles back home and we’re doing quite well.”

 

… buskers being allowed to use amplification is a monstrous invasion of our private space: discuss.

 

… is Deliveroo the new generation gap?  

 

… we asked some AI software to write lyrics in the style of certain bands. You need to hear the results.

 

… musicians and the positions they should play on the football pitch.

 

… a deathless picture of McCartney and all-girl crowd at the Cavern.

 

… plus birthday guest Keith Adsley flies the flag for ‘Jaguar Sound’ by Adrian Quesada.
