We watched the 8 hour Beatles doc, how about you?
We said we'd do an extra episode when the Peter Jackson documentary came out and that day arrived over the long weekend. Justin hid a camera in a flower pot and sat down with Ryan to see what he thought of it. This episode reference our original 1970 conversation a few times. You can revisit that one, which features Let it Be and a slate of Beatles solo albums that came out that same year) earlier in this podcast feed or right here. Beatles vs. Stones is part of the Pantheon Podcast Network.

Is Goats Head Soup good, bad or both? Is Band on the Run the best post-Beatle record?
Justin Cox and Ryan Page look at 1972, when the Rolling Stones drop Exile on Main Street and John Lennon and Yoko Ono release Sometime in New York City. The first 20 mins are heavy on the Lennon album. Don't let it scare you away! Everything after that is Exile! Ryan reps The Stones and Justin reps Lennon/Ono...
