Ep. 54 | Deep Dish: U.S. Rubber Soul (1965) Part 2
The British Rubber Soul is for the birds! OK, that might be a little aggressive. The album's a masterpiece, but T.J. and Tony make a pretty compelling argument that nobody really misses "What Goes On," and that Dave Dexter's U.S. version for Capitol Records is just a superior collection.
It's so fine.
It's sunshine.
It's PART TWO of our U.S. Rubber Soul deep dish. And along the way, we ponder:
Where does journalist Maureen Cleave fit into the lineup: Is she the fifth Beatle... or THE THIRD?
And where does Ed McMahon land? (Spoiler: the ninth Beatle.)
Which iconic songs would the guys etch into their solo Eagles Mt. Rushmores?
"Run For Your Life" may not age well, but we like to think our dumb Peter Cetera jokes will. YOU BE THE JUDGE.
