Episode 9a - Eight Days A Week reviewed
As a supplement to our ninth episode, Graeme Burk is joined by Petra Mayer (sans Rob) to review Ron Howard's recent documentary on the Beatles' touring years Eight Days a Week. Graeme and Petra talk about the comprehensive quality of the film (and how it is very slighly analagous to the New York Yankees!) and touch on the suprising aspects (the effects Beatlemania had on youth culture, the brief intersection with the civil rights movement), marvel at the amazing archival finds and discuss how it stands up with other Beatles documentaries.
