EggPod Express

@eggpod.bsky.social

Once a Beatles podcast. Now a jaunty stroll through 1960s music magazines with a pot pourri of delicious guests. (But probably mostly a Beatles podcast to be honest) Hosted by @chrisshaweditor.bsky.social iamtheeggpod.com

"Records could take you places. Sound pictures. That is what it was all about". THIS. And it's why we pore over music magazines 60 years after the fact. This series has been a delight. Can't wait for the next one! (Although I will because @chrisshaweditor.bsky.social deserves a rest!)

A dozen egg poders. Don't miss these tasty excursions into the cultural primeval soup that made The Sixties THE legendary decade of the last century!

Hope you're on here long enough to read some praise for you and Chris for that double episode. It was like listening to two old friends in my sitting room, on some occasion I myself had somehow lost the power of speech and couldn't join in. I look forward to the next one(s), whenever you have time.

Happy Revolver day! Here’s that source photos image that ended up all over the web uncredited. It was researched by Beatles fan (and great help for my Sgt Pepper source photos project) Sergey Obod. Yay, Sergey!

Never came across Ron Geesin before. I went straight to A Raise of Eyebrows afterwards. It's a charming album to go with this charming episode. I confess I've also got a Pink Floyd shaped hole in my brain so listened to Atom Heart Mother for 1st time too. It's ace! Thank you for the introduction!

Another cracking episode. I've loved all the brilliant little stories over the last few that make you rethink what you know about classic albums and moments in time. Which I suppose is the whole point of EPExp when you think about. But just to say, it's working really well Chris. Love it.
