Episode 98: Wrack Our Brains Live at the Chicago Fest For Beatles Fans

In this episode we welcome Eoghan Lyng, author of "George Harrison in the 1970s," a book examining a significant decade in Harrison's life. We'll discuss the professional and personal changes Harrison underwent in this important period, and why Lyng chose to cover them in this new book.
NOTE: We apologize for some of the sound issues in this episode--Eoghan was broadcasting via his phone from Spain (not Ireland, as mentioned in the show), and there were technical problems associated with that.
