Description

Most people skip Mr Moonlight on Beatles For Sale, so on this Beatles podcast we put it on trial. Kenyon and Peter are joined by Nancy to settle it: is Mr Moonlight secretly great, or truly cursed?


We cover:

- Why Mr Moonlight is the most skipped track on Beatles For Sale

- The song’s path back to Roy Lee Johnson and Dr Feelgood and the Interns

- Version comparison: Star Club performance vs the Hollies version

- Recording comparison: Anthology take with tremolo guitar vs the official release with Paul’s organ solo

- Storytime: the 1964 North American tour and the night Bob Dylan got the Beatles properly high
