Fav Track: Hey Jude (Past Masters)

“This was the first Beatles single I ever played on a record player. Literally! My parents must have purchased the single after I was born and placed it in a record case given a red number 50 on a tan sticker. Before I could read words, I was attracted to the apple picture on the sleeve. Revolution was one of those wild teenager songs, but Hey Jude was a nice calm song that I could listen to for many minutes before having to turn the record over or get another record.”

My Comments

  • “The first time I heard this recording was the summer of 1987. My girlfriend had some old records of her mother's and I was looking over them. One broken dirty 45 RPM single was "My Bonnie" by "The Beatles". It was not on a Capitol label, so I did not know what it was. I took the record home, carefully cleaned it, and snapped the playing surface back to where I could play it. Wow! And after a visit to a book store (these were the days before the internet) I looked the record up and verified it really was the Beatles. The estimated 1987 value was $6 if in good condition. More if there was a picture sleeve. Tammy Z, if you need the record back, I'll be more than happy to hand it back over.”

Fav album
Abbey Road

“Most of the albums are great, but there is just something about Abbey Road. I never heard the album in full until I was almost out of my teens in the later 1980's. A girl friend asked me if I had ever listened to Abbey Road and hearing that I had not, she suggested I listen to it (thanks Jennifer L. of LC). Two years later my parents were pressuring me as to what I wanted for my birthday. I remembered the conversation and suggested the album of Abbey Road. The first song is my least favorite, but the rest of the album is just poetry in a good way. Friday afternoons I like to start playing the songs at "Here Comes the Sun" and just experience the rest.”
