#95 - Savoy Truffle with Chris Carter (host, Breakfast with the Beatles)
b'
After a few years of producing some fairly heady and serious musical output, George found himself wanting to lighten the load a bit in 1968. Not everything needed to be Within You Without You, inspiration didn\'t always have to be divine. It could come from anywhere, even your friends gross teeth. Thanks to his friend Eric (you know who)\'s love of chocolates and disregard of dental hygiene, George came up with Savoy Truffle, an under-rated (imo) tune in which Paul and Ringo provide some of their nastiest grooves. George\'s decision to let the song be led by horns instead of guitar keep it exciting and energetic in a way it just wouldn\'t be if guitars were the feature instrument. George said around this time he "just wanted to be a rock star," and he certainly seems to be the part here, with a great vocal delivery matching his guitar lines, and lyrics that are downright sexy. How this song doesn\'t get more love is beyond me, cuz it\'s a killer.
\\nTo wrap up our 2023 season, we\'re delighted to welcome the one and only Chris Carter, host of Breakfast with the Beatles! Chris is celebrating the show\'s 40th ANNIVERSARY, and we couldn\'t be happier to talk about it with him. I mean, it\'s on in our car every morning anyway! We chat with Chris about the history and the future of Breakfast with the Beatles and how he keeps it fresh, gnarly horn sounds, absent John, and a wonderful story about a call from a Beatle\'s wife. If you don\'t already, listen to Breakfast with the Beatles Monday - Friday 8-11 ET on Sirius XM\'s Beatles Channel, and on KLOS every Sunday 9-12 PT.
