Word In Your Ear

David Hepworth, Mark Ellen and chums cast an occasionally jaundiced eye over the goings-on in the worlds of music and entertainment.

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.
