Lost Albums: The Beatles "Hey Jude"

In their first new release of the Fall, Markus and Ray introduce a new "Imbalanced" concept, Lost Albums! Being one of the most famous of "the lost," The Beatles' Hey Jude is this episode's topic. Starting life under a different title, The Imbalanced Ones will discuss that, and the many other factors that led to this being lost (and rare) in the long run. The guys "rediscover" this record, song by song, with quite a few fun surprises along the way! Reach out via email: [email protected] & hit our web site for all of our episodes!  

When Folk went Electric, a lot credit goes to Roger McGuinn and the Byrds! They also were among the first to move to Laurel Canyon along with the Beach Boys, Joni Mitchell, Frank Zappa, members of Buffalo Springfield and a lot more. There was a lot of magic being created in those hills. This was the time of The British Invasion, but the Canyon gave Americans, and Brits alike, a place to hang. Dig in and enjoy the lifestyle, the sounds and the magic of Laurel Canyon. There's a documentary, Echo In The Canyon, hosted by Jakob Dylan, which highlights the impact of that time period in Rock & Roll, as well as the place's significance in music, culture and art. This episode was completely inspired by seeing the documentary on Netflix.
