The first episode of the Beatles’ very own radio show, «Pop Go The Beatles», airs this month, and the Beatles get even more exposure. At least in the UK.

Northern Songs Publishing was a good idea. But like business in general, things aren’t that transparent.
In December 1962, Norway got its first National Park, namely Rondane Nasjonalpark. Since then we’ve gotten a lot more, and thank god for that. I’m a big fan of National Parks, as they preserve areas that are both beautiful and important, so I say keep ‘em coming.
It’s the end of another year, and it’s been a bit more difficult to decide which was the best release, at least more difficult than last year. So I’ve basically chosen the ten albums and singles that I liked the best, but the order might be a bit random. But just a bit though.
There’s not a lot going on in the world right now that I want to write about. There’s the Vietnam war. Protests against the war. Failed space launches. I kinda want this to be a positive thing, you know?
I’ve finally stumbled over the first Norwegian release since I started this project. I mean, there have been other releases, but they are not available on the streaming platforms that I use. And like I’ve mentioned before; I’m not rich enough to buy all the records I can’t find on the internet. But The Monn Keys will be the first Norwegian band to get some attention here on This Band Could Be Your Life.
John F. Kennedy, who’s probably the most well known president of the USA, took his oath on January 20th, 1961, and The Supremes signed with Motown Records on the 15th of January. Which is more interesting?
