The Big Beatles Sort Out: Recent Episodes
Garry Abbott
Welcome to The Big Beatles Sort Out a show in which I, author and musician Garry Abbott, attempt to finally decide my favourite Beatles recordings by scoring each and every one for lyrical content, musicality and production.
I am assisted in this venture by my brother and resident Beatles expert, Paul Abbott, with a deep knowledge of the Beatles and the wider context in which they operated.
Each episode we explore and score 5 songs drawn at random from the Beatles full recording catalogue.

Hello! We have the privilege and honour this week to share with you exclusive audio from behind the scenes at the recent live episode recording of Chris Shaw's final 'I Am The EggPod' podcast, featuring interviews by Rob Manuel with EggPod fans and alumni, including:
Mark Lewisohn, Samira Ahmed, Joel Morris, Nadia Shireen, Jason Hazeley, Julia Raeside, Matt Everitt, Kevin Eldon, Jill Connolly, Mark Newlove, Eleanor Gray, Adam S Leslie, Chris Chibnall, James Marshall... and more!
If you don't know, 'EggPod' was a massive influence on us starting our show. Chris brings such warmth and passion when talking about The Beatles, and meeting him last year and finding out that he listens to (and likes!) our little show has been a highlight of my podcasting journey so far.
So, thanks Chris for the EggPod and for asking us if we would like to share this with our fans, and I expect, many people who will never have heard of us before! We hope you enjoy and please consider having a listen to some of our regular episodes from our first 4 series.
While we are on our summer break from sorting the Number 1 singles of the 60s, we've been joined by Tim Worthington to talk about George Martin's 'By George!' album, featuring instrumental arrangements of various 60s hits and some original compositions.
Find links to all Tim's various projects at https://timworthington.org
Thanks for listening - we will be back soon with the second half of the 60s and maybe another bonus or two! Keep in touch @Big_Sort on Twitter and Instagram.

Hello and welcome to a Big Beatles Sort Out bonus episode!
We have once again been speaking with author, Beatles fan, legal scholar, Harvard professor, and all round interesting chap, Cass R. Sunstein, about his new book: 'How To Become Famous' published by Harvard Business Review Press out on the 21st May 2024.
The book features The Beatles as one of several case studies into the phenomenon, philosophy and mechanisms of 'fame', so we caught up with him via internet link to the US East Coast to chat the Beatles and fame!
His book can be pre-ordered/purchased here (depending on when you are listening to this!):

Every episode we explore and score 5 songs taken at random from the solo singles of the individual Beatles released in the decade following their break up. Except in the episodes where we don't - like this one! Garry has been away on holiday and so he's left Paul minding the shop and he's sneaking out an episode of his Head Ballet podcast - which is all about novelty songs. The guest on this episode was I Am The Eggpod's Chris Shaw, who brought along a curio from 1967 to talk about.
Hope you enjoy this episode. Let us know on social media and we'll be back next week for a 'normal' episode of BBSO. Hot dawg!

Yes, Paul has tried his hand at selecting and sequencing the mythical 'Black Album' or 13th Beatles LP from tracks recorded by Beatles solo or in other groups in the 5 years following their split.
As there are 14 songs to go at, I've not included the snippets in the episode itself due to length, but you can hear Paul's playlist in it's entirety here:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3Xe7HRUNwEUSsIKD8RAynt
I did say in the episode I would list them out here too, but I think that might spoil it for fans of surprises, so even if you don't like Spotify, you can use the above link to get the list and then go listen somewhere else!
Also, there is the usual 'On this Beatle day' and I round off the episode with a look at the album chart and a few other interesting charts from the main episode scores so far.
