Beatles VI (1965)

At The Untitled Beatles Podcast, we’re as ‘Murican as basebrawl, hawt hogs, and Snapple Pi. And because our ethos has and always will be “Spyak Anglish”, we (fine, one of us) know(s) the correct way to pronounce Capitol’s seventh Beatles album is “Beatles VEE EYE”. Like “Vee Jay”, only instead of Jay, it’s a different word (than where you come from. #JealousJasmineGuy)

Anyone who calls this record “Beatles Six” has a deep hatred for either “The Beatles Story”, or rightfully, one of the least popular/worst selling albums ever released, “Meet The Beatles”. Still, semantics aside, Tony & T.J. continue their journey - with Open Arms - into the Beatles Capitol albums with a look into this surprisingly great (Chris) hodgepodge of songs, including a song the U.K. didn’t even hear until the following year. How ya like them Snapples, Thatcher?

Along the way, the two UBP Bad Boyoyoyoyoy’s tell you what they see about:

 🐴 Is the mistress of the dark, Elvira, actually a horse? And if so, what does it take to get her to giddy up a-oom poppa, oom poppa, mow mow, heigh-ho Silver, away?

 🍗 Is your favorite BBQ prepared with KY Masterpiece, or are you more of a dry rubber?

 🕎 If Drunk Billy Joel shows up to a Hanukkah party, and the house burns down, did he indeed start the fire? Or was it a lethal combination of crack and Bernie Goetz?

How to pronounce this album’s title is as contentious as rock & roller cola wars, so don’t take it anymore, and instead enjoy our deep dish on another fab, million’ selling Capitol album! Now Dominic Chianese, behave yourself!
