The Beatles Live at Budokan (1966)

Missing live music as much as we are? This week we offer you an hour-long escape to 1966 Japan, where the Fab Four played their iconic concerts at Budokan. Maybe not their most polished performances, but definitely memorable, and definitely a portrait of the Beatles in a critical moment of transition, fresh off their Revolver recording sessions.

We've got lots of music in store for you, along with:

• All of TJ's favorite 1980s deodorant and bratwurst commercials

• A bit of Tony's junior high pop music lust

• A tribute to the great Terri Hemmert and her commitment to awful Beatles covers

• And, of course, the obligatory cheap shots at poor Pete Best.
