What even, Rusty? *boggles* That was bonkers. Not boring, though!

Did you have opinions on Now and Then? Also, I have the impression that Get Back has significantly shifted the narrative on the band's history, so I'd love to know your thoughts on that. is what lurkinghistoric wants to know.

Now and Then: like with Free as a Bird in the 1990s, I have a twofold opinion. Musically speaking, I wish they hadn't, because while ( Read more... )
