		<title>John Lennon&#8217;s &#8220;Early Beatles&#8221; &#8216;Gurgling&#8217; Rhythm Guitar</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Been listening to &#8220;Meet the Beatles&#8221; a lot lately and I love the sound of John Lennon&#8217;s rhythm guitar on the early Beatles records.
His playing and sound on &#8220;I Want to Hold Your Hand&#8221; is just phenomenal, it&#8217;s got this almost gurgling, underwater sound to it.  Those two chords at the beginning, the rhythm; exhilarating. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Pete Quaife, bassist for the Kinks, passed away on June 24th.

		<title>Beethoven&#8217;s 7th Symphony Allegretto/Second Movement</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Beethoven, thank God you walked the earth and left us so many immortal, eternal masterpieces.
The second movement of his 7th Symphony (the &#8220;Allegretto&#8221;) just may be the greatest piece of music ever written, but I&#8217;ll be content to say it can&#8217;t be beat. Good God, this is just so magnificent, so moving, so thrilling to [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Beatles&#8217; Second Album. Vinyl. In Glorious MONO</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Picked up an LP of the Beatles&#8217; Second Album this weekend at the Park Slope Flea Market.
Oh man, what a great record! I remember my brother Mike and I blasting this baby over and over again from the little crappy one speaker turntable we had.

		<description><![CDATA[Welcome.  If you are here, you must have expressed an interest in The Kinks, Alexandre Dumas, Guinness or George Harrison.
As you must know, The Kinks, Alexandre Dumas, Guinness and George Harrison CAN&#8217;T BE BEAT.  As cable &#8216;documentaries&#8217; about ancient aliens and secret societies are wont to proclaim,  &#8220;some believe [such-and-such dubious claim]&#8220;, &#8220;some believe&#8221; that [...]]]></description>
