We’re over the hump and headed toward the weekend with a great lineup today, including a visit from the two surviving Beatles!

Here’s your musical lineup for Thursday:

9:00 a.m. The Original Sixties Rotation: Various Artists

These were the days, my friends, we’d thought they’d never end. They did, of course, but the music lives on through The Beatles, The Monkees, Sonny & Cher, Simon & Garfunkel, Little Eva, The Everly Brothers, The Searchers, Dusty Springfield, The Drifters, The Dave Clark Five, Johnny Rivers, Bob Dylan, The Animals, Petula Clark, The Rolling Stones, Procol Harum, The Turtles, Del Shannon, The Temptations, James Brown, Fontella Bass, The Box Tops, Blues Image, Booker T. & The MGs, The Four Tops, The Lovin’ Spoonful, The Left Banke, Fats Domino and more!

4:00 p.m. Paul McCartney Live at Citi Field, Queens, NY, July 17-21, 2009

We’ve got Sir Paul live this afternoon from Citi Field in Queens on The Summer Live 09 Tour, his fourth North American concert tour of the 21st Century. There was special significance to his performance at Citi Field, opening a brand new venue in 2009. The Beatles opened a brand new venue at the same spot in 1965. Back then, it was known as Shea Stadium.

8:00 p.m. In the Spotlight: The Music of Ringo Starr

The energizer bunny of music visits tonight with music from The Beatles and as a solo artist with his fantastic All Starr Bands. Ringo is undoubtedly one of music’s most accomplished percussionists and drummers, and he has made more than forty albums since the Beatles broke up.

It’s a Beatle kind of day here in The Lounge. The Beatles were the genesis for so much of the sixties music it’s unbelievable. We’ve got the full catalogue here, along with 27,000 other songs free of charge every day 24/7.
