We're deep-diving on the Beatles' greatest(?) album, Revolver, with a baker's dozen of the best tracks from the brand new super-deluxe box set out today, including incredible demos and early or alternate takes of many classic songs. Then, we'll feature a mini-installment of our Black & White Album series, focusing on African-American artists covering the album's tunes, including Aretha Franklin, Earth Wind & Fire, The Four Tops, and Living Colour, among other artists. Also, October songs and more from Johnny Cash, Amy Winehouse, The Incredible String Band, The Byrds, and others.
