    Lonely Hearts Clubhouse – Episode 9: Fred Astaire
    2022/11/09
    And so we come to the end of Season 1 of the Lonely Hearts Clubhouse, and we finish with a fun episode about musician, actor and dancer – and Hollywood legend – Fred Astaire. He’s the ninth personage along in the back row of the Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover. It’s hard […]

    Lonely Hearts Clubhouse – Episode 8: Edgar Allan Poe
    2022/10/26
    Eighth along on the Sgt Pepper cover, and we come to the master of the macabre, the sovereign of spooky, the uncle of the uncanny, Edgar Allan Poe. A writer, poet, and critic who died, like John Lennon, at the age of 40 — and was name-checked by Lennon in the lyrics of “I Am […]

    Lonely Hearts Clubhouse – Episode 7: Carl Jung
    2022/10/12
    It’s like a Jung-le out there. Or: somebody spoke and I went into a dream… Carl Jung! Founder of analytical psychology, originator of the idea of the collective unconscious, coiner of terms like synchronicity — and seventh along in the back row of the Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album cover. I really enjoyed […]

    Let me take you down, ’cause I’m going to… W C Fields. With apologies, there, not just to John Lennon, but to our loyal listeners, who have had to wait an extra day for this episode again, because I didn’t get my shit together on the right day. Wednesday was a busy day! Another vaudeville […]

  • Lonely Heart Clubhouse Episode 5: Karlheinz Stockhausen

    Lonely Heart Clubhouse Episode 5: Karlheinz Stockhausen
    2022/09/14
    Really, this should be episode #9, and a retcon should move this week’s subject further along the row to ninth position. This episode is all about the German avant garde composer who was surely the inspiration for the Beatles’ experiments with tape loops and sound collage. The thorny question of which Beatle was the most […]

  • Lonely Hearts Clubhouse Episode 4: Lenny Bruce

    Lonely Hearts Clubhouse Episode 4: Lenny Bruce
    2022/08/31
    Fourth along in the back row of the Sgt Pepper cover is an image of standup comedian Lenny Bruce which looks… nothing like him! I suspect because Peter Blake colourised a black and white photograph and stuck the head on a (generic?) body to which it didn’t belong—because in the original photo Bruce is sideways […]

    Lonely Hearts Clubhouse — Episode Three: Mae West
    2022/08/17
    Third along on the back row, then, and it’s Mae West, star of vaudeville then Broadway, then Hollywood; protagonist of scandals; jailbird; dealer in double (and single) entendre; bombshell; legend. In this episode, Elodie gives a potted history of Mae West, and we discuss the company she finds herself in when described as “box office […]
