This channel is NOT Mark Lewisohn's personal UA-cam channel.
But since Mark Lewisohn is indeed the greatest world-renowned and world-recognised Beatles historian and expert - most notably since his 1988 best-seller "The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions" - we thought the man deserved a beautiful reference interviews channel !...
... So this channel is like a homage to Mark Lewisohn and a reference channel for his master subject The Beatles, almost like a public service kind of channel if you like !... This channel will be like a free and "un-monetized" central platform aimed at any english speaking Beatles student around the planet, and it will patiently collect and centralize all interviews and significant radio/podcast/video appearances Mark Lewisohn has made anywhere in the world, usually scattered around dozens of different sites and platforms on the internet, onto one single central channel for reference without monetizing its videos, for this is a purely educational reference channel for the connoisseurs, without any commercial nor business goal of any sort.
Therefore this "Mark Lewisohn - A Beatles Historian" channel is indeed a good deed !
SO PLEASE NOTE THREE IMPORTANT THINGS :
A) None of these videos will ever be monetized so we're not robbing anybody here,
B) A nice & gracious link to the original beloved source/podcast will of course always appear right underneath the video with the original source full name, and
C) An UNCENSORED version of this Mark Lewisohn channel, ie. with all the missing interviews that were either blocked or taken down by UA-cam, is and will always be available there bit.ly/3IpYjWf

Mark Lewisohn has professionally studied the Beatles since the late '70s. Mark has worked for Paul McCartney himself from 1986 to 2001, for the Beatles' own company Apple Corps from 1991 to 1998, and has also collaborated with the surviving members for the enormous 1995 autobiographical "Anthology" project...
But beyond his extraordinary books and even beyond the Beatles themselves (!), listening to Mark Lewisohn talking about the Fab Four during those long conversations with various Beatles fans, Beatles experts and Beatles students from all around the world, is indeed a fascinating and informative experience in itself. It is a vibrant and breathtaking experience because it is like listening to a series of rich in-depth lectures on what life used to be like in the Western World after World War II, during the 1950s and obviously during the great legendary 1960s.
Hence the existence of this channel.
Mark Lewisohn's "ALL THOSE YEARS" Beatles historical biography that Beatles fans already casually call "THE THREALOGY BOOKS" :

Excellent. Thanks for the clarification and having a central location where we can get our Lewisohn fix.
Fascinating...thanks. I could listen to Mark Lewisohn all day long.
Fascinating - a fresh stock of interviews on the channel after far too long a gap - but copyright might be at work here too?...
Really interesting discussion. It seems the Beatles weren't getting good business advice despite their success and ultimately it contributed to their breakup.
I'd kill for all those details about recording, mics, and stuff 😢😢😢
fab!
Great to see more Mark Lewisohn interviews, especially discussing the fantastic ‘Get Back’ film.
Next we have the upcoming ‘Revolver’ Superdeluxe Edition (no “anniversary” to justify this release…but it’s a shiny, new version of one of the greatest albums ever, so what the hell…).
That should tide us over until ‘Volume 2’ is released.
Then again, maybe not?
Volume 2 of what ??
@@tuveuxlademocratieoutuveux4692 Mark’s Beatles biography.
@@tuveuxlademocratieoutuveux4692 - the 2nd part of Lewisohn’s planned Beatles trilogy.
My intuition says the pandemic delayed it a year, because 2021 is absolutely an anniversary for something that came out in ‘66-the 55th anniversary.
Thank you not ony sharing insight.but sharing insight with respect.
If I had the ability to clone humans, JPG&R would be the ones I'd clone first. There should have been a double set of those, darn :/
On 1:13:21 the fact recording people love those 60's plug-ins (if they are good ones) doesn't have to do with experimentation but sound quality... The machinery available on those days sounded already good so there were room for experimentation as Beatles and the crew did... Nowadays you need very expensive equipment to sound as good as they used to and that's the value of these plug-ins that allowes you to have it in a cheaper way... By the way: experimantaion is always required as you would need it to get any particular sound... Most of all when you combine them as reverb with delay and compressor, for example... Practice makes perfect here.
Dick James was looking after the interests of Dick James until the end
Unlike everybody else in the world including me and including you, eh? 🙏
Dick James and his buddy Silver, made a *_lot_* of money from other people's efforts - parasites contributing virtually nothing. None of _The Beatles_ actually met Silver, who made millions out of them. George Martin recommended James to Epstein. Was there a brown envelope under the table here from James? People say James got _The Beatles_ TV appearances, so promoted them. _The Beatles_ were already getting TV and radio time. _Please Please Me_ did not need James to push the song, the song at the time was so catchy anyone would have grabbed _The Beatles_ with both hands for radio and TV appearances. *_James and Silver got 50% of Northern Songs?_* What sharks! Well those naive _"Norveners"_ got rid of him in the end - not before he made a fortune by taking their money by doing sweet nothing.
After Epstein died _The Beatles_ decided to take all under one umbrella forming Apple, getting rid of financial parasites. I noticed that after Epstein died, Martin's involvement with _The Beatles_ dropped sharply. The White Album was mainly produced by all four Beatles with Martin at times not going into the studio. Let it Be was not produced by Martin. It was strange they went back to Martin for the final Abbey Rd album.
Was Brian Epstein naive? He was actually in the music business having some idea of how it works at the time. You did not need to go to a publishing company, as a quick analysis tells you they were not really needed in the radio and TV age. Immediately Epstein should have seen that these companies were parasitical with most of them adding little value, creating his own publishing company and keeping full ownership of the songs.
Dick James was just one of the rip off artists that fleeced musicians in the 1960s and 70s. And boy were many stripped of their wealth.
Regarding Dick James' portrayal in Rocket Man... Disgraceful. It's also a crappy, formulaic film of the worst cookie cutter type, with exactly the same arc as every other biopic of its type. It features the standard five phases:
1) Young, discovering music, and being rather good at it.
2) A steady climb and building of popularity.
3) The height of stardom. The halcyon period.
4) Decline via drugs and the drying up of their muse.
5) A finale featuring a triumphant return.
Lazy crap.
On another note, I've always admired how the Beatles restrict the use of their own recordings on compilations. The only compilations you'll have the Beatles on are Beatles compilations. The side effect, of course, are all those Best of the Sixties albums which have huge holes in them, with the most important band completely absent. I'm happy about that. I'd not want their amazing legacy over exposed and sitting next to (in some cases) vastly inferior material.
All rock biopics have been ruined for me by Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story.
The 60s and 70s was full of rip-off con men and economic parasites in the music industry. They held James up as the icon of the rip-off men. They could have had many more instead of, or besides, James, but James was involved in a high profile case with a high profile artist.
