In this episode, we dig into one of the most famous Beatles gigs, the "Royal Variety Performance" in London on November 4, 1963. This was the gig where John Lennon said his famous lines asking the Royals to "rattle [their] jewelry." We go into the background behind the performance, discuss the other performers (the Beatles were the seventh act on the show!), and analyze the four songs the Beatles played.


Here's the performance.


We also discuss One Hand Clapping a bit as a preview for our next episode, and answer some listener questions. Thanks for listening!
