Today marks what would have been the 86th birthday of Beatles co-founder John Lennon. Author and historian Chuck Gunderson joins guest host Connie Willis (info) to explore the Beatles' lasting impact on music, culture, and society, tracing their rise from their early years through their 1970 breakup. He’ll revisit their explosive touring years and examine how stepping away from the road opened new creative possibilities in the studio, leading to some of their most enduring music. Followed by Open Lines in the latter half. Give Connie a call and discuss whatever is on your mind!
