Review of The Beatles One-Hour Radio Special: "Help! Is On The Way..." Narrated by Michael Palin

A wonderful reminder of just how good "Help" the film was. Lester has long argued that Help! was a terrific film; this doc brings the listener into the materials of the soundtrack -- songs, for example, you may have forgotten to remember.

A loving bunch of audio -- for once, PDs, you'll need to figure out how to turn 48+ minutes into 59 mins. I urge you to draw upon PRX content, but whatever you do, don't let faux resources get in your way.

This is engaging material, incorporating Bealte programming we'd forgotten to remember to remember...
