Global Beatles Day (June 25th)! Catching A Wave 06-24-24

 


We take a magical mystery tour this week on Catching A Wave and salute The Beatles this hour in honor of Global Beatles Day on June 25th. It's celebrated on this day because of the first ever global broadcast that was produced by the BBC. This special on the group beamed The Beatles performing "All You Need Is Love" on June 25th, 1967 to over 400 million people world wide. We hope to show the band's impact on a variety of genres and decades through the years. This hour, we hear a track from The Beatles from an album celebrating it's 60th anniversary in our Good Time segment. Beth Riley has a fab cover by The Beach Boys in her Surf's Up-Beth's Beach Boys Break. Our pals Dion and Joel Paterson go Head 2 Head later with their versions of a Beatles classic. We'll drop a coin in the Jammin' James Jukebox to hear an instrumental cover by The Ventures. Plus, there's covers by Cheap Trick, Chris Casello, George Martin, The Grip Weeds, Papa Doo Run Run, The Smithereens, Los Straitjackets, The Weeklings, Duane Eddy, The Midnight Callers, The Surf Dawgs, The Astronauts, Mick Beaulieu and a new solo track from Ringo Starr!
