With The Beatles playlist for 05/14/2026

This week on With The Beatles

This week we look back at the launch of Apple Records as John Lennon and Paul McCartney travel to New York to help promote the label ahead of its official summer 1968 launch.

We’ll also revisit the moment in 1969 when The Beatles recreated the iconic Please Please Me album cover for the planned Get Back LP artwork — later famously used for the 1967–1970 (“Blue Album”) cover.

Plus we continue diving into the new album from Ringo Starr, along with the latest single from Paul McCartney featuring Ringo.

Also featuring new releases from:
• James McCartney
• The Claypool Lennon Delirium

Plus a look back at Ringo Starr on VH1 Storytellers

Birthday and tribute salutes to:
• Joe Brown
• Stevie Wonder
• Frank Sinatra
• Larry Williams
• B.B. King

We’ll also remember producer Jack Douglas, known for his work with John Lennon during the Double Fantasy and Milk and Honey era.

Plus George Harrison singing a duet for a movie soundtrack and a hidden Star Wars nod from John Lennon

And of course — more Beatles history, deep cuts, gems, and much more throughout the night!
