Sir George Martin, the genius recording engineer behind the Beatles, died yesterday. He was 90 years old. RIP, Sir George, and thanks for all the music.

Let's rephrase that; goodbye Sir George and thanks for all the music. You must have forgotten The Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy and the dolphins, "Goodbye and thanks for all the fish." (;->)

Incidentally, there's so much Beatles music and about Beatles music you don't know and I didn't know until I built my enormous library of their music. Now I have much of the rare and obscure early German club recordings, various demos, works in progress and various studio items that were never published until now. They're most unusual so you'll only find them in the most unusual places, but don't look in the dusty corners of your local music store, all you'll find is dust. Now where does that leave you? Cummon, you can't be so dumb you can't figure it out. (;->)

If you lived in the New York radio market at the time you know both "Cousin" Bruce Morrow of WABC and Murray "The K" Kaufman of WINS claimed that honor. Aside from Cousin Gruesome nauseating me I preferred Murry The K and his submarine race watching to the WMCA Good Guys. Frankly I pity those who don't understand submarine race watching, the movie The 40 Year Old Virgin may give you a clue.
