been buying some Segovia, Montoya, Holst & Cat Stevens,,,,but the main thing playing this week was a BOOK.

Here, There and Everywhere: My Life Recording the Music of the Beatles

http://www.amazon.com/Here-There-Eve...9204419&sr=8-1

really a fascinating book by the recording engineer who recorded REVOLVER, SPLHCB , LIB and ABBEY RD.

He was there and offers insider info on the FabFour...starting as an 15 y.o. at EMI and working his way up the chain ....he got so fed up that he quit the Beatles in the middle of the White Album...but really a down to earth guy..Geoff Emmerick ...he also designed the Apple recording studio (they mention the speakers as Altec in passing)

library has it and its a great read ....didnt know that Alan Parsons was an asst engineer b4 heading out on his own....recommended

Geoff Emerick, Beatles Chief Recording Engineer, Dies at 72
Other than George Martin, he was the behind-the-scenes brains that helped shape the band's sound — particularly, the weird ones.

Krautrock from Hannover. Heavy words leading into the songs: very very important lyrics in "denglish" (=german Krautrock english language by Frank Bornemann). And at the end of every song: "Dankeschööön!!". Still funny after all these 40 years...
