## Resource

Marv and I discuss the songs on side A of John Lennon's Rock 'n' Roll. While we wait for the (fingers crossed) eventual Ultimate Collection, we talk the original versions of the tunes, a bit about how the songs fit into Beatles/Lennon history, and some thoughts on how John chose to modify (or not) the arrangements. Part 2 (side B + the "others") next week. #madeonzencastr.
