AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now when are they getting a Stones channel?
I enjoyed a lot of their music, but that enjoyment was mostly
40 years ago. Are there still enough people who’d listen to such a station on a regular basis? This will be presented by SirusXM. Does that mean it won’t be accessible to terrestrial radio listeners? I would think most older people who are familiar with Beatle music are still primarily users of terrestrial radio, vs satelite.
Maybe it can work, maybe there are sufficient demographics of younger folks who do want to hear the music. It stands out today, because back then, almost no one used profanity on the radio, and most the songs were well composed aesthetically and musically
I could see Elvis having a channel dedicated to his music, and perhaps the Beatles. I just hope SiriusXM doesn’t fill up the dial with too many of these at the expense of existing channels that have some variety. I know I always bypass Springsteen, the Grateful Dead and others when they had them.
On a brighter note for SiriusXM listeners, they’ve dumped Glenn Beck from the Patriot channel as of the end of this week. David Webb will be taking over his time slot!
A Yoko channel would be good for the Gitmo prisoners. No more need to waterboard.
Just another reason I don’t have Sirius.
I wish Sirius would dump the Springsteen channel for this.
I was never really into the Grateful Dead. With a few exceptions, most their songs sounded like a continuation of the exact same song.
***OFF Topic;
Is Dr. Laura still on the radio in any form?
I know she’s been off basic radio since that N-Word controversy (Much a-do about nothing). I thought she had gone ‘on Satelite Radio’ right after that. Maybe not.
I miss her programs.
I pay for one XM Sirius premium subscription in my car. Then I can stream it to my smartphone, on my laptop, etc.
Plenty of music choices, Fox News, Fox Business, Patriot etc.
A new news station might be able to get their own dedicated channel, there.
Reminds me of The Scotch Tape Store™
lol
I haven’t listened to the Beatles since the early ‘70s. I can’t imagine ever wanting to listen to them again. They are so dated. I don’t listen to anything older than the ‘80s, with the ‘90s through today being my favorites.
I second your enthusiasm. I always enjoy hearing the back stories not just of the Beatles but of all the other famous groups.
Quick Trivia question: Who is Dr. Winston O’Boogie and with which artist did he perform with on some of his songs?
This is the kind of back story that I am referring to.
I skip those same channels as well and as for Glenn Beck, he needed to go about 3 years ago.
My 30 year old son loves the Beatles. My 28 yo daughter does as well, but not as much.
“SiriusXM Launches The Bealtes Channel “
You’d think they could spell Beatles correctly.
Yes. She is on SiriusXM
