#180 - Honey Don't (no guests, just us!)

You can really chart the band's early growth with all the different versions of this Carl Perkins' tune. "Honey Don't" appeared in the band's live set in 1962, and found a home on the Beatles for Sale album. It made multiple appearances over the years on BBC sessions, and each time, it's done a bit different. The band's growth from rough and ready, garage rock band to seasoned, attentive recording artists can be tracked over these versions. And while Jonathan may find that interesting, Julia isn't sure that necessarily makes it a great song. That said, this week, it's just us! As we hit the round number of #180, we decided to take a look back and chart OUR growth, with a quick run down memory lane, recapping our list so far. We talk about how our thoughts on the band have been evolving over time doing this podcast, and discuss our current Beatle favs! What do you think? Too high? To low? Just right?

Om Podcasten

Musician and self-described Beatles fanatic Jonathan Pretus ranked the entire recorded catalog of the Beatles, because he's a big, big nerd. Then he decided to make a podcast to talk with other people and learn about their connection with The Beatles' music. Tune in as Jonathan and his guests, joined by his co-host/wife Julia (a more level-headed, casual fan) discuss the rankings, what they think makes each song so great (or not-so-great), and see if it really is a fool's errand to try and rank the music of the greatest band of all time.
