Forgive us, dear reader, for sounding Jaded. But most real McCartney fans will admit that Aerosmith’s 2001 LP “Just Push Play” is better than literally any solo Macca; and perhaps even better than most Beatles albums. (*Does not include “Live At The ... more

    In-depth analysis of the quote “Gentlemen, I’m sure you’d like to be the first to know. We got the tapes”, tasteful harpsichord renditions of Jimmie Nicol solo material, frame by frame appreciation of “The Compleat Beatles”, grammatically correct criticism of “Kum Back”, and several Chicago (the band, not the city) references. 🍏

  • What's the point?

    Who is listening on this Candy? There's very little substance. So those wanting Beatles content have so many great options (not this). The intent seems to be to amuse listeners either morning radio gags and bits. But does anyone like that any more? I guess. But these guys don't even seem to be amused by their schtick. The forced laughter is a tip off that no one including the hosts are amused.

  • They’ve got heart!

    They’re funny (in a goofy, silly way) that may not appeal to everyone. But their show is fun and they’ve got heart.

    They genuinely love The Beatles.

    This show is an absolute ripper. Tony and T.J bring a witty vibe to celebrating the Fab Four, and it’s clear from the get-go they’re not taking anything too seriously. It took me a couple of episodes to fully get into their schtick, but once I did, I was hooked.

    The production is top notch, with Casey adding brilliant touches and fun audio bits that really bring the show to life. What sets these blokes apart is how much they really love The Beatles – you can hear it in every episode. I’d take... more
