Blotto Beatles
We are the world’s leading hammered highbrows of Beatles broadcasting. In other words, we have a few drinks, we hit record, and we review and rank one Beatles song per episode.
Blotto Beatles
Ep. 97 - Rainkiller (feat. Diallo Riddle of One Song Pod)
What was it that made Paul McCartney's bass sound so unique? We dive into that before welcoming our amazing guest, Diallo Riddle, and talking best Beatles roommates, a lot of Pee Wee's Big Adventure, the strange creepiness of The Magical Mystery Tour Cover, and the sped up b-side Rain. Is it the best Beatles cover? Where does it land on our big old list? Listen in to find out.
