| 12/31/24 | Lennon Reveals: The St Regis Series Ep #1. "I'm Doing What You're Doing" | Welcome to the first series of this season, Lennon Reveals: The St Regis Series, where we dive deep into one of the most fascinating and underappreciated interviews John Lennon ever gave: the St. Regis interview from September 1971. It is as wide-ranging and entertaining as Lennon Remembers but even more insightful. Dr. Duncan Driver joins me as co-host to unpack the many layers of this conversation. This is part one of a ten-part series. In this conversation, John revisits many of the themes from Lennon Remembers, yet he also reveals layers of emotion and vulnerability that aren’t immediately apparent in the Rolling Stone Interview. This interview challenges the notion that Lennon had fully moved on from The Beatles, showing instead how deeply invested he remained in those relationships, even as he sought new beginnings with Yoko. It sheds light on Lennon’s need for security and love, his ongoing emotional ties to his former bandmates, and his struggles to reconcile his past with his present.The St. Regis interview reminds us that Lennon’s story is richer and more nuanced than the popular myth. It offers valuable insights into his loyalty, emotional depth, and artistry. It’s a must-listen for anyone looking to understand Lennon, the Beatles, and the dynamics that shaped their world in 1971.Podcast host: Diana EricksonIf you have questions or comments, email us at @onesweetdreampodcast@gmail.com.IG:@onesweetdreampocastX: @onesweetdreamdiThanks to Duncan Driver and Halle Ryan!Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy | 2h 18m 27s | ||||||

| 5/3/23 | Revisiting RAM. Engineer Eirik Wangberg On The Making of RAM: "His Spirit Was Free" | This episode revisits my interview with RAM engineer, Eirik "The Norwegian" Wangberg, the engineer that spent two months alone in a studio with Paul and Linda McCartney during the making of RAM. Due to these circumstances, Wangberg was able to observe the McCartneys at a time when they were quite insular, so it was a treat to speak to the charming Norwegian. According to Wangberg, McCartney "was in a tough, tough situation. But he did it marvelously...His spirit was totally free." Wangberg wore many hats in the album's creation, ultimately sequencing and mixing the album. http://www.eirikwangberg.com/ One Sweet Dream Info: Website: onesweetdreampodcast.com Email: onesweetdreampodcast@gmail.com Patreon: Patreon.com/onesweetdream Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy | 1h 14m 06s | ||||||
