See Hear Bonus Episode - Interview with Mitch Axelrod about the Beatles TV Cartoon series

  Hey there See Hear listeners,   We have two episodes of
the show being released this week. Episode 36 will concentrate on a
discussion of the full length 1968 Beatles animated feature, Yellow
Submarine.   Today, however, to complement that episode, we
present to you an interview Maurice had with author of the book
“Beatletoons”, Mitch Axelrod. There are hundreds of Beatles related
books covering music analysis, biographies, their professional day
to day diary, tours, gossip and even description of what equipment
they used (specific amplifiers, guitars, drumkits, etc). Mitch has
written the only book about the creation and background behind the
very successful weekly King Features cartoon TV show devoted to the
Beatles.   Mitch was very happy to talk about how the cartoons
came about, how the animated figures actually moved like their
real-life counterparts, (but their voices sounded nothing like the
real thing), why the cartoons are never likely to be officially
released by Apple on DVD, and sixties cartoons in general. He’s a
knowledgeable and funny guest, and it was See Hear’s huge honour to
have him on the show.   Don’t forget to look for Episode 36 in
