I had a request to post my video of the extremely talented Tom Odell covering “Oh Darling” by The Beatles and it is my pleasure to do so. I didn’t know “Oh Darling” was going to be part of the set, so I was enjoying the song like every other concert goer when I realized, “Holy crap! This is great! I better get this on tape!” So apologies for missing the complete song, but you will definitely get the gist, and by the end of the video, you will never want to miss seeing Tom Odell when he comes to your town.
Speaking of Tom Odell, you can see him doing a Billy Joel cover (of “New York State of Mind”) which is also amazing HERE!
George Harrison - Living In The Material World. Showing on HBO on October 5 and 6, 2011
Martin Scorsese’s documentary on George Harrison, “Living in the Material World,” made its US premiere at the New York Film Festival on October 4, 2011. The four hour documentary is a must see for all Beatles fans. There’s a ton of footage you’ve probably never seen before including home movies as well as newly recorded interviews with Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Yoko Ono, Eric Clapton and Tom Petty – just to name a few. The film is a fantastic portrait of a fantastic man. Obviously as he was a Beatle, he achieved fame and success that the majority of people on earth will never get to taste and yet he spent his life searching for inner peace. The first half of the documentary covers the Beatles and the second half explores his fascination with spirituality and shows great footage from his solo career.
Olivia Harrison
George’s widow, Olivia Harrison was present to introduce the film and afterwards, Martin Scorsese, Olivia and some of the key film makers did a question and answer session. Spotted at the premiere were Eric Idle, Adrian Grenier, Rita Wilson, Fisher Stevens and Wes Anderson. The film will air on HBO on October 5 and 6th, so make sure you catch it!
Here comes the falafel! You can see this cool Beatles Abbey Road mural where the fab four have their Wrapido take out, the healthy fast food option on 8th Avenue in Chelsea. Lucy in the Sky with Hummus!
