068R George Martin

A show I was very happy with, but was somewhat overtaken by the American Memorial Day holiday, reducing our audience a bit.  Nevertheless, sixteen listeners at max, and a very well appreciated show.

As promised, the Mr. Kite poster that inspired that Sergeant Pepper’s track can be seen here.
