Shoulda been there, the first researched historical novel on the life of John Lennon, is truly extraordinary. The book, the first in a promised trilogy of Lennon novels, written by Jude Southerland Kessler, covers John's life from 1940 to 1961, and traces the events that motivated his desire to become a famous rock star and the day-by-day activities of the early Beatles.
No less an authority than Bill Harry, founder of Mersey Beat, the '60s magazine that documented the Liverpool scene of the time, says in the book's foreward that Kessler got it right.
In what Mr. Harry referred to as a "factional" approach, Kessler blends twenty years of research on Lennon with her ability to create authentic Scouse or Liverpudlian dialogue and with an incredible familiarity with the ins and outs of northern England. Jude describes events in Lennon's adolescence as if she were there, as if, as Bill Harry notes, she had been a fly on the wall during these landmark events.
In the pages of this remarkable book, you will experience the Quarry Men's first performance at The Roseberry Street Festival and The Beatles days in Hamburg, you'll walk with John into Liverpool College of Art as a freshman in 1957, and you'll stand beside John at his mother's funeral in 1958. Each moment in John's youth and teen years becomes a moment in the reader's own experience. For 795 pages, the reader is John's shadow. Each reader is John's comrade.

As vivid as these are recounted, the accounts are not fiction. Jude documented these events in over twenty years of research including 7 trips to Liverpool and an incredible number of interviews of the people who were actually there and around at the time. The book is footnoted, and Jude's end notes debate the veracity of past non-fiction research, pointing out contradictions where they exist. Beatle myths are exposed, and new truths are suggested. The book, Shoulda Been There, works to present John Lennon as he really was, not as we've imagined him to be over the last 40 years.
The novel also supplies Beatle enthusiasts with a great deal of documentary material. Jude includes the "Encyclopedia of Real Characters" which provides 125 short biographies of those closest to The Fab Four, and her "Scouse Glossary" gives a necessary insight into the language of Merseyside. There is more at work here than just an extremely good read. The book carefully balances on that tightrope between fact and fiction, plainly telling us when the author leans to one side or the other.

Capturing the essence of long-lost, half-remembered conversations is what Jude sets out to do, all while separating fact from fiction with regard to myths and legends that have been handed down for years about Lennon's youth and The Beatles' unimaginable rise. What happens, through the magic of Jude's words, is that readers come to know the younger Lennon and relive his painful childhood.
The book is an exhaustive work for the early Lennon years. It captures the imagination, but tells the truth.

23 Slater Street
Liverpool 1

It was Thursday before Al had secured Tommy Moore as their drummer and Friday before they'd decided on a band name. Stu still favoured the Holly hat-tip that "The Beatals" implied, but the odd designation was ridiculed by experienced showman, Brian Casser, and influenced by Cass, Allan put his foot down. "It's fuggin' lunacy - this Silver Beatals! Give it up! Beatals is out!"

Among John, Paul, George, and Stu, there was general grumbling and a string of half-hearted suggestions that inspired no one, and while they were divided, Allan resurrected the Long John Silver tag again. This time he insisted on it.

"Look, Lennon," he raged, "I haven't time to argue about this. I've scads to do before Tuesday mornin', so listen up. It's Gerry and the Pacemakers, as I've said before, Cohn Green and the Beat Boys, Cliff Roberts and the Rockers, Bob Evans and his Five Shillings, Deny and the Seniors..."

"Cass and the Caskets," John snarled.

Allan ignored him. "To select some anonymous band name without delineating group leadership is flagrantly swimmin' upstream, and you know it! In fact, from Manchester to Doncaster - in all the fuggin' musical North - not one fuggin' name like the fuggin' Beatals has ever been heard of!"

"Right." John's nostrils flared. "Now you're catching on, son."

Paul shouldered in, standing beside John without one hint of his usual cheery disposition. "John's not a solo virtuoso 'shoo-bopped' by some insignificant chorus, y'know," Paul said. "We're all in the group, Al. It's all of us, y'know."

"It's a hand-selected band of individual players," John agreed, tactfully re-establishing his leadership without saying so.

"No one sings all the songs," George tossed in.

"Sod that!" Allan stood his ground. "It's Long John Silver and the whatever else you want to call it...or it's nothin' at all."

John stood up. "We'll not be a name and a conjunction, Al... and I won't be Long John anythin' - not for you, Parnes, or the Queen Mother herself - gig or no gig, tour or no tour, audition or the obvious fuggin' alternative!"

"Look," Allan stepped up, equally irate and stubborn, "I don't give a fuggin' rat's ass what you say, Lennon. I've no time for your shenanigans at this point." He pushed a finger in John's chest. "You're not gettin' up there in front of Billy fuggin' Fury and Larry fuggin' Parnes with some harebrained insect name spelled in some jimmied up, ludicrous fashion! It's bad enough you've never even practiced with yer bleedin' drummer yet..."

"And who exactly do we have to thank for that?" John hissed.

"...but at least you'll look legit and act legit and have a name that sounds like an honest-to-goodness musical group!"

"Gerroff, Al," John sneered. "We've work to do."

"Understand me?" Allan tried Paul first for confirmation, but Paul only shrugged and looked away. "Got it, Harrison?" George whistled and twiddled his thumbs. Only John continued to make eye contact, and his rebellious glare promised only defiance. Allan raised his voice in one final threat, "I'm tellin' you lot right here and now...don't fuggin' cross me on this! Don't come into the fuggin' Blue Angel as the bloody Silver, Bronze, Gold, or Iron Beatals, or y'er out on yer bleedin' ears before you even darken the door. Dress professionally! Don't be late! And don't bring this crap up again! You'll not give my management a bad name just because you're all too fuggin' green to know what's what in the music world!"

"And you make sure," John returned, not the least bit intimidated, "that yer fuggin' drummer shows up. You do your job, Manager...and we'll do ours."

"You'd better hope so," Allan turned to leave, "because if any of you so much as begins to embarrass me in front of Larry Parnes..."

"Out!" John pointed towards the door, dismissing Allan from his own coffee bar, and turning to George in the same breath. "One, two...one, two, three, four..."

"Bollocks to you, Lennon!" Allan mouthed while John flashed a malicious Cheshire grin and began to play. Paul smiled and waved goodbye. George gave a slight nod, then turned away.

Quickly glancing at his watch, Allan pulled his "final-final checklist" from his pocket and hurried to the street, shaking his head in disgust.

They need a fuggin' warden, not a manager, Allan swore. And John Lennon needs a zookeeper with a muzzle and a cudgel.

Al unlocked the sleek, navy blue Jaguar parked in front of The Jacaranda and piled in, his heavy cloth coat rumpling about him. He flipped on the radio and pushed the cigarette lighter in with one quick, simultaneous motion. He inhaled deeply. Holding it for a second, Al let the air out slowly with puffed cheeks. He closed his eyes.

Radio Merseyside was playing Rosemary Clooney's '56 hit, "Come Rain or Come Shine." It was a musical martini for the nerves. It soothed. Allan inhaled deeply again, and turned up the volume a notch.

Not my favourite - Rosemary Clooney, he thought, but I'll take a bit of a lullaby after that lot inside! Sing, Rosemary, sing! Work yer magic, girl!

Allan turned on the ignition and revved it three times.

Beatals! he frowned. Idiotic! Silver Beatals! Who 's ever heard of shite like that?

Adjusting his mirrors, settling into the cushy leather, and popping into gear, Allan screamed away from the curb, foot to the floor. A group of pedestrians scattered out of his way as Allan flew down the street at twice the speed limit. And another crowd jumped as he cut the corner short at Slater and Seel. Allan had been warned several times about aggressive driving on the M-6, but no one, he reasoned, could fault him for this. Having to wrangle with the Silver Beatals was, in his opinion, adequate justification for a little vehicular recklessness.

"In fact," he snarled to his reflection in the rear view mirror, "it's far and away the perfect excuse for just about any crime."

All events are actual, including the make and colour of Allan's car (which, by the way, he lost the license to drive a year or so later...you can read the story in The Man Who Gave The Beatles Away. Priceless!) All conversation is conjecture.

Movie studios, by and large, avoid controversial subjects like race the way you might avoid a hive of angry bees. So its remarkable that Crash even got made; that its a rich, intelligent, and moving exploration of the interlocking lives of a dozen Los Angeles residentsblack, white, latino, Asian, and Persianis downright amazing. A politically nervous district attorney (Brendan Fraser) and his high-strung wife (Sandra Bullock, biting into a welcome change of pace from Miss Congeniality) get car-jacked by an oddly sociological pair of young black men (Larenz Tate and Chris Bridges); a rich black T.V. director (Terrence Howard) and his wife (Thandie Newton) get pulled over by a white racist cop (Matt Dillon) and his reluctant partner (Ryan Phillipe); a detective (Don Cheadle) and his Latina partner and lover (Jennifer Esposito) investigate a white cop who shot a black copthese are only three of the interlocking stories that reach up and down class lines. Writer/director Paul Haggis (who wrote the screenplay for Million Dollar Baby) spins every character in unpredictable directions, refusing to let anyone sink into a stereotype. The castranging from the famous names above to lesser-known but just as capable actors like Michael Pena (Buffalo Soldiers) and Loretta Devine (Woman Thou Art Loosed)meets the strong script head-on, delivering galvanizing performances in short vignettes, brief glimpses that build with gut-wrenching force. This sort of multi-character mosaic is hard to pull off; Crash rivals such classics as Nashville and Short Cuts. A knockout. Bret Fetzer

Crash [Blu-ray] was genial! You have to just see this movie! A egregious performance by Karina Arroyave Dato Bakhtadze make Crash [Blu-ray] a must scrutinize movie!

I love snagging freebie publications whenever I visit other cities so while bouncing about Boston yesterday I grabbed a copy of the adorable Skirt! Magazine. Skirt! was born in 1994 as a monthly magazine for women in the Charleston and Columbia areas of South Carolina. Now print copies of Skirt! are available in sixteen cities and growing. I like Skirt! because its a nice break from some of those regular lady-focused mags that only seem to discuss how to loose weight and how to gain a man (gross). Skirt! covers everything from shopping to spirituality, featuring poetry, essays, art and articles. This woman-owned business celebrates femininity and feminism and is an inspiring example of how, with hard work and hope, a small business can grow. takepart and check out the online version of Skirt! at http://skirt.com/.

Over at the Engadget household today, we staffers have gathered around a cornucopia of good eats, good gadgets, and most importantly, good times. When it came time to list all the things we were thankful for, our readers were undoubtedly the top choice. And with Ask Engadget questions like this one, can you really blame us?

"I've been listening to your podcast since the day you reintroduced it and I really like it, but I have a hard time understanding what you're saying when I'm in the subway. So I'd like to know what are the best noise-suppressing headphones I could get for around $150. Either that, or you could just ask Nilay to speak louder... thanks a lot!"

We'll be sure to pass the word to Nilay (he's a bit busy with the pumpkin pie at the moment), but for all of you overstuffed individuals out there, how's about giving Gabriel an answer he'll appreciate? Afterwards, send in a question of your own to ask at engadget dawt com.

I still have a great many lingering complaints about Orthodoxy. A friend of mine at UNM is in the process of flirting with Roman Catholicism right now. We have a good many conversations. On a given day you may hear us shouting back and forth to one another,

--

or metting each other with our given Paschal greetings

--Christus resurrexitAlithos Anesti

or vice versa

Christos AnestiVere resurrexit

We do this in one sense to distinguish ourselves from our own personal flirtations with apostolic traditions (his words). In another sense were celebrating unity. You see, were both great supporters of Ecumenism even though we have little claim or little at stake to either the Orthodox or Catholic churches.

MG published an entry (wether intentionally or not Im not sure) with responses to some unorganized thoughts I have published in the past summarizing in brief why I have chosen to not go through with a to Orthodoxy. It is not my intention to respond to MG at this time but rather to simply note some of my observations. This is not a highly organized academic criticism just thinking out loud as it were. I also gladly welcome responses and dissenting thoughts.

This is how it seems to me the conversation is going.

The Catholic (and by the Catholic I mean the Roman Catholic/Eastern Orthodox/ et. al. who consider themselves members of the true visible church as verified by apostolic succession among other criteria.) says something like this in conversation with a non-Catholic (By non-Catholic I generally mean protestant and/or Evangelical. I realize there are a great many people who are not apart of an apostolic tradition who do not consider themselves Protestants, like myself, but because of the kink-fetish we have in the West with classifying things, especially people, could be generalized to mean what The Catholic means by .)

C: I am apart of the true Church.
N: Well Im apart of The Church too.
C: Oh yeah? What do you have?
N: I have The Holy Spirit.
C: Yeah? We have that. And . . .?
N: . . .
C: . . .
*Both Walk Away*

And this is where the conversation ends. Of course there are a great many nuanced articles written about the validity of Apostolic Succession, Tradition and Holy Scripture, Grace in and out of the Church, among others things. And I admit that this is an oversimplified (and in some ways bastardized) summary of the arguments, but it is nevertheless all I can hear in my mind when someone asks me to clarify the different positions. And I can not justify conversion for me or for my aforementioned friend if this is what it boils down to. Of course the Catholic will respond that there are a great many highly important truths to be won or lost based on the outcome of this very conversation and that of course it boils down to much much more than what I have claimed it boils down to. What if Christ isnt present in the Roman eucharist, or in the Eastern eucharist? Thats a pretty important question isnt it, especially for The Catholic (for the Romans, for the Byzantines, and the two together)? Whats more, what if Christ is present in the bread and wine I take every Sunday (as I pray He is)?

Does this conversation really end? I know its ended for my Orthodox friends. I know its ended for my Roman Catholic friends. So.

- Cool Hunting and Trend Hunting isn’t the search for what’s popular. It is the search for what’s NOT popular – yet. In fact, cool hunters and industry professionals typically refer to cool as the NEXT big thing. Once trends becomes mainstream, the novelty and appeal is lost. As a result, you must seek inspiration from the fringe. This means exposing yourself to the extremes of luxury, bizarre and excess. By construct, this means micro-trends have a lower probability of becoming mainstream. However, the purpose is to build a composite of trends for inspiration.

RockingVicar: Just one last question - "Carnival Of Light," does it actually exist?

Paul McCartney: It does exist, yeah. We recorded it in about fifteen minutes. It's very avant garde - as George would say 'avant garde a clue' - and George did not like it 'cos he doesn't like avant garde music .

RV: Who wrote it?

PM: It's officially me. I instigated it. No there's no lyrics, it's avant garde music. You would class it as ... well you wouldn't class it actually, but it would come in the Stockhausen/John Cage bracket ... John Cage would be the nearest . It's very free-form. Yeah man, it's the coolest piece of music since sliced bread!

RV: This is early '67?

PM: I was asked about '67 to do it by Barry Miles - you know, who did my book Many Years From Now - and he asked me to do it for this event at The Roundhouse called Carnival Of Light, so that's how it got its title. And he asked me to write a fifteen to twenty minute piece, and I was into that kind of thing, not on record with The Beatles, but just for that. I went into the studio and said to the guys, Look we've got half an hour before the session officially starts, would you mind terribly if I did this thing?

RV: So this is with the other Beatles?

PM: With the other Beatles. This is a Beatle record. And they all just fell in with the spirit of it and I just said, Would you go on that and would you stay on that and would you be on that and we'll just take twenty minutes to do it in real time? And they all just got into it.

RV: Why don't you release it?

PM: I actually have a project I would like ... I'm involved ... One of the many things I did, I did a thing called The Grateful Dead Photo Film, using Linda's snapshots and making them move, dissolving between them and making them into a film, a short art film, which I showed at festivals and things. And I'm actually in the process - although everything else and its uncle is holding it up - but I've got a Beatles photo film on the go and I would love to use it as part of the soundtrack of that.

RV: There was a rumour it was going to come out on Anthology. What happened with that?

PM: It was up for consideration on The Anthology and George vetoed it. He didn't like it. Maybe its time hadn't come.

Were taking a break fro the NFL this week to focus back on the mecca of all sports: baseball. See for us, the season isnt over, were just on a four-month break until Spring Training. But until then there are some moves to be made, and you just might be surprised where your favorite player ends up, or who your team ends up with.
Manny Ramirez
I just cant quit you Manny .. oh wait, yeah I can, cause you always quit on your team about year seven or eight. Manny is the top prize in this years free agency pool, motsly because of his monster final two months of the season with the Dodgers. BUYER BE WARE. Ramirez was in a contract year as soon as he left Boston. Im pretty sure I could hit .400 and smack 17 HR if I had $27.5 million on the line. The fact is that Ramirez is a 36-year-old slugger who maybe has two good years left.
Ramirez Scott Boras wants a six year deal somewhere in the $150 million range. So look for the Dodgers to be generous, but not too generous. I really think the final years of the contract will be a snag. The Yankees will make an offer just to piss off Boston, and the Angels will make a move, but I really think you are looking at the Toronto Blue Jays. Crazy, right? No. Toronto is the only team dumb enough out there to give an aging late-40s hitter a six year deal. And lets face it, no one in Canada cares about baseball, so Ramirez wont have to worry about that whole thing.

A BEATLES HARD-DIES SITE: Beatles Vs

  • Nov. 11th, 2008 at 4:48 PM

Are any of these three choices the right one or is it reliant on our individual personalities?
At different stages in my own life I have used each of these three choices.
Option 1:
At times option one worked best for me, when I got the call telling me that my mother had made the decision to leave me without a home I had little time to sit and think about my options, I didnt have time to come up with a strategy plan or wait for the darkness to clear.  I was thrown in the deep end and tried to swim the best I could.  Along the way I bumped into many an obstacle, I bashed my head more times I can say but ultimately it was the best way forward for me at that time in my life.  I was on the go constantly, there was no time to rest.  Survival.
Option 2:
When I finished school I decided to study my second love, computers, got a great job at a hi-tech firm where I was the only woman working amongst males in a technology field.  I walked through that door and put my hands out, it was a whole new universe for me and I didnt have time to stand back and wait for my eyes to adjust.  I had to feel as I went and hope that I would feel the obstacles before they hit me.  At first I progressed slowly and as my eyes adjusted I sped up, I moved forwards and the light came.
Option 3:
This year has been one that has truly rocked my world, turned it upside down and then back again.  It has been constant change and then not enough change, spiritual growth, lost friendships and incredible new ones, heartache, heart wonders and turmoil both in outer life and inner being.  I walked into this year and stood still, I could do no other.  I stood, took a deep breath and allowed the darkness to envelope me in its arms.  As time passed things started to become more clear, I saw the different paths lying before me, the dream plants of new and old, obstacles and things to avoid, what to jump over and what to move.  I saw my path.
Was the option I chose for each circumstance wrong or was it the right one for me at that particular time in my life?
Perhaps there is never a right way to do things.
I can turn around to you right this minute and say STOP THAT BUS RIGHT THERE but will I be right if I hadnt taken the time to know you, to understand your process or what you are going through?  What would give me the right to judge your process and tell you that you are on the right track if I hadnt taken the time?
We each own our own process for which you have the choice to share with another to gain advice or just an ear.  That process is yours and you decide whether the advice given fits with you or whether it is wrong.  That decision is always yours, no one elses.  The advice might be right, it may be wrong, no one ever knows for sure, all it is in reality is a flashlight in the dark to help you on your way.
Those three options are eternal and interchangeable. If you think you are charging off into the night and should rather stop in your tracks and stand still for a moment to adjust to the new light then stop in your tracks.  Stand for a moment and take a deep breath, breathe, wait, breathe, till you you can see more clearly.
Is only one of these options the correct one or are all three.

of which John had a particularly clear vision of what he wanted.
Sir George has been blessed and cursed with that band; he truly was the so-called Fifth Beatle. Blessed because he was a primary force in believing in them and allowing them to release who they really were: not just singers, not just singer-songwriters, certainly not just another wacky beat group. But four young men who were in a hurry to make an impact on the world and would truly change pop music more than anyone could imagine if they had been at that first official recording. Cursed because any conversation he ever has with anyone – even now in his 80s - will he knows sooner or later and usually sooner turn to ‘what was it really like?'.
What the heck: there are probably worse curses.
That's another reason we love The Beatles.

Game To Lineament Beatles Repertoire

  • Nov. 1st, 2008 at 11:33 PM

With arguments scheduled for Monday in the landmark preemption case, the two sides are sniping over a House committee report, released Wednesday, suggesting officials inside the FDA opposed the agency's move toward a policy of preempting patient lawsuits against drug companies. The long-awaited case, Wyeth v. Levine, will decide whether FDA approval of a drug makes drug companies immune from lawsuits brought by injured patients.

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith was a brave experiement, but a successful one - now its time to repeat it with a band that people actually like.
Its strongly rumoured that MTV is about to announce a forthcoming Rock Band: The Beatles edition. If its true, then Rock Band: The Beatles would be a truly landmark game. Not only would it mark the first time that The Beatles have licensed their music to a videogame, but also, if the song In My Life gets included in the tracklisting, itll also mark the debut of the Rock Band harpsichord peripheral.
Its expected that Rock Band: The Beatles will be so realistic that itll actually feel like youre one of The Beatles. For instance, John Lennons guitar will have easy, medium, hard and expert levels, George Harrisons guitar will have easy, medium, hard and expert levels, Paul McCartneys bass will have easy, medium, hard and expert levels and Ringos drums will have one very easy level that even a baby could play.

Lennon McCartney. It's the equality of the combination that made the difference. Yesterday's post highlighted the poles of that combination, but the real power was in the equality. Great partnerships such as Laurel and Hardy, Starsky and Hutch, Simon and Garfunkel, real or not are very familiar to us. But they are usually asymetrical relationships. One of the partners contributes more. But with Paul and John their common interests in music, language, girls and success allowed them to use the subtle differences in their thinking patterns which complemented perfectly each others writing. Equally. Equal in language dexterity. Equal in musical ability.Equal in respect for each other. Equal in 'street' smartness and cultural awareness.Only when they went their separate ways did we see how this had ensured a staggeringly high success ratio of hits to misses.

Ever wondered what it would be like to play Monopoly in a Beatles world? Now you dont have to anymore: Games manufacturer USAopoly has just recently put out Monopoly: The Beatles Collectors Edition, the latest version of the popular board game with a Fab Four twist.
s a game designed for the Beatles fan specifically, says Maggie Matthews, USAopolys Vice President of Marketing, to Spinner, and we think its a fun addition to that fans memorabilia collection.
According to the product description, the goal here is to gives fans the opportunity to create their own private anthology by collecting Beatles albums. Properties on the game board include every Beatles album released during the Fab Fours time together, from Please Please Me to Abbey Road the spots where and luxury tax are usually on the original game are now represented by the songs and Ticket to Ride, respectively. And the pewter tokens are shaped to represent references to Beatles songs including a hammer (from s Silver Hammer), a walrus (I Am the Walrus) and a strawberry (Strawberry Fields Forever).
