cut the preamper filling in for me last week as I was in Orlando for Megacon at an interesting

Monday. We'll get to that in just a little bit but let's get the show started.

It was actually yesterday on the 25th 1966 The Beatles had their historic butcher

photo session for the butcher album yesterday and today. Here's one of those tracks on that

American album which was also on UK's revolver Dr. Robert WUSB.

See yourself with Dr. Robert, Dr. Robert, for a new band. He helped you to understand.

He does everything he can to help Robert.

Well, well, well, well, you're feeling fine. Well, well, well, well, you'll make you.

You'll never know how much I really love you.

You'll never know how much I really care. Listen, do you want to know the secret?

Well, you promise not to tell.

Oh, oh, oh, closer.

Let me whisper in your ear. Say the words you want to hear.

It's getting better all the time.

I used to get mad at my school.

Teachers had taught me when to.

They were holding me down, turning me around.

So, building me up with a roof.

I got to admit it's getting better.

It's getting better all the time.

We used to be angry on man.

He hiding me in a sense.

You gave me the words.

I finally heard you're doing the best I can.

I used to get mad at my school.

It's got too much of all the time

I'm tired, tired

I used to be cruel to my mom

But I beat her and kept her apart

When the things that she loved

My love was me, but I'm changing my scene

I'm doing the best I can

For you, for you, for me

It's getting better

All the time can't get better

Yes, I'm it

Butcher

Album cover of the Beatles

In lab coats

With all those

Baby doll butchering

Baby parts

And it was a real

Controversial photo shoot for an album

And that album

With that album cover is very rare

And it was actually yesterday

Back in 1966

The Beatles

Had that photo shoot for that album cover

However, it was too controversial

So the Beatles ended up redoing the shoot

Where Paul was sitting in the casket

Which has an early indicator of

Paul is dead

One of those early, early clues

But yes, what are the most iconic album covers

Is the Butcher album cover

And honestly, I have to admit

The casket one is

Iconic too, because of Paul

Kind of like sitting in the casket

But yeah, the Butcher album cover

The photo shoot was yesterday

Back in 1966

Of the upcoming new album

Long, long road

It's been too long

Right here

On WUSB Stony Brook

Ninety point one

Yeah, it's been too long

Since we listen to one another

It's been too long

Since we dream

Mighty dreams

It's been too long

Since we floated downstream

Together

It's been too long

Since we smell the clouds

Lost track of the hours

Since we hit the heavens grave

Since we didn't do a thing

It's been too long

Yeah

It's been too long

Since we were off one mile

It's been too long

Since we left it all behind

It's been too long

Since we held on tight

It's been too long

Since we ramble through the night

Together

It's been too long

Since we sang

It's angry

It's been too long

Since we wrote about the fear

It's been too long

People call me a stick in the mud, but it's certainly not true, it's not true, it's

But it's certainly not true, who could call me a stick in the mud, when I polish my tonsils, put on my dancing shoes.

When I get that feeling at the end of my toes, gonna go in a trunk, I get itchy feet in the end of my nose, gotta sing, gotta dance, gotta sing, gotta dance.

Though there may not be much time, oh man, it's gonna sing, gotta dance, gotta sing, gotta dance, gotta dance.

When I hear that old train whistle blow, all the notion like they're getting ready to go.

Like a wrong way hold, someone able to stop, I can feel my feet go clippity-cloth.

I think I'm a star, I think I'm a star.

I gotta sing, gotta dance, gotta sing, gotta dance, gotta sing, gotta dance.

You know what I have?

I've got a dream!

I've left the building

Headed to the door

No down

Father running to you

At last

You're there with me

Showing the way

Hey hey

Like a maritalo

Post into my veins

It's there

I'm in the doctor

Marry me again

I can't

Like a maritalo

Lightning in my blood

Thunder

I'm in the blood

Walking along the path of thunder

I beg of you to come

With me

To a place so special you want

Believe

Will you be true to me

Waiting the way

Reflections of memories

Dreams of today

Energy fade

Into your hands

You pick me up

I know you can

Like a maritalo

Post into my veins

Let's go

I'm in the doctor

Marry me again

Motio

Like a maritalo

Running to my veins

It feels good

You are my last line

Making me love

Like I should

Like a maritalo

My love to you

Never be far

Realize the future

You must be feeling my heart

My heart

I know you

Save

I know

Save

I know

Just to be the last of a diorite being lost

It's such a bad career, it's a lie

Between stone and pleasure find

But if it's not, I'm just told to stay up

But really, baby, I'm going to be shaking

If you can't see, did you win?

How can you break you?

If you see, you can go

I'll need to see the clear

My mom starts

So disappointed

And I human something wrong

Need the truth

Or is that wrong?

Similar to wrong

Is that wrong?

Similar to wrong

Is that wrong?

Too busy reminding history

To see what tomorrow opens

Too busy pretending to believe

Can never say what you really think

Because if you question that police

Or some shows that it's gone

You can't see, did you win?

How can you skip it?

This is a single goal

And when you see it, I'm really the head

When you're all the stars

Let's go to anthology 3

As we play

One of those great unreleased tracks

We're gonna play

What's the new Mary Jane

Why not? It is a fun fab show of a song and there's actually a specific fun fact about weed and not the smoking

kind but the actual weed that's in the ground. Yes, one of these days this week is actually

National Weed Day. And I can't remember what day that was. It was one day this week.

Weed Day. What is that? Weed Day? It's up for 20 now.

I'll find it and I'll get back to you guys on it. Oh, March 28th. Yeah. March 28th is National Weed Day.

We're National Weed Appreciation Day. So here's what's the new Mary Jane of Anthology 3 Remastered Take

4 WUSB.

And the Queen, she's taste as Mongolia and the land, she's coming from out of Iran.

What a shame Mary Jane had a better party. What a shame Mary Jane, what a shame Mary Jane had a

better party. She'd like to be married with Yeti. He grew up in such cookies the Yeti.

She jumped in as Mexican bin to make that her body more thin. What a shame Mary Jane had a better

party. What a shame Mary Jane, what a shame Mary Jane had a better party.

She catched Patagonian pancakes with that one engine party maker. She had things all the

way in good contact. She making with apple and contract. What a shame Mary Jane had a better party.

What a shame Mary Jane, what a shame Mary Jane had a better party. What a shame Mary Jane had a better

party. What a shame Mary Jane had a better party.

What a shame Mary Jane had a better party. What a shame Mary Jane had a better party.

What a shame Mary Jane had a better party.

WUSB Stony Brook 90.1 FM with the Beatles. We heard what's the new Mary Jane March 28th

National Weed Appreciation Day, not the 420, but the stuff that's in the ground, the actual stuff that's in the ground.

Yesterday was kind of the last couple days I'd say there's been buzz on social media about Paul McCartney's next album.

There were a lot of clues people were looking into. One of them was like a little bird on Paul's social media and then a phone number, a phone number.

And then the biggest spoiler was Paul's brother Mike McGear, posted a picture of like a street name and we'll play that famous street name in just a moment.

But there's another certain street name in Liverpool called the Boys of Dungeon Lane L24. Now that is basically now confirmed to be the title of Paul McCartney's next album.

There's actually also a website. But going back to the clues, one clue was like a bird and another one was the bowl of cherries from the first McCartney album.

So we're going to play a few of those bird songs and street songs and cherry songs. But let's go back to 1967 with that other famous street name.

But it was also this week, 1980. The US Beatles American Rarity's album was released and Paul McCartney said it was quite good.

So let's play a rarity of that album. In 1967 we go back to Penny Lane. But here is the capital records of Monal Mix with the famous trumpet solo at the end.

WUSB Sonya Bruck with the Beatles, Paul McCartney and the Beatles, Penny Lane.

And all the people that come and go stop and say hello.

On the corner is a banker with a motor car. The little children laughing him behind his back. And the banker never wears a back in the pouring rain.

Very strange. Penny Lane is in my eyes and in my eyes.

Where beneath the blue superb skies I sit and clean while back in Penny Lane. There is a fireman or the hourglass.

And in his pocket is a portrait of the queen. He likes to keep his fire engine clean. It's a clean machine.

Penny Lane is in my eyes and in my eyes.

Where beneath the blue superb skies I sit and clean while back in Penny Lane.

So she feels as if she's in a play. She is in any way. Penny Lane, the barber, shapes another customer. Received a bike-consuming way to good dreams.

And the fireman rushes in from the pouring rain. Very strange. Penny Lane is in my eyes and in my eyes.

Where beneath the blue superb skies I sit and clean while back in Penny Lane. There is a fireman or the hourglass.

Where beneath the blue superb skies I sit and clean while back in Penny Lane.

Penny Lane is in my eyes and in my eyes.

Where beneath the blue superb skies I sit and clean while back in Penny Lane.

You are only waiting for this moment to be free. Blackbird fly. Blackbird fly. Into the line of a dark black night.

Blackbird fly. Blackbird fly. Into the line of a dark black night.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night. Take these broken wings and learn to fly on your life.

You are only waiting for this moment to arrive.

You are only waiting for this moment to be free.

All alone on a desert island. We live in a tree. And we're flying in the breeze.

We're the blue birds. We're the blue birds. We're the blue birds. We're the blue birds.

Singing in blue time.

Blue bird.

More guitar.

Dress like a lady.

Talk like a baby.

Love like a woman.

Walk like a woman.

Sing like a black battle.

Walk like a woman.

Look like a woman.

Dress like a lady.

Talk like a baby.

Love like a woman.

Walk like a woman.
