Mo Troper + The Beatles

Explicit

Portland musician, producer, and writer Mo Troper zoomed into the Crooner’s Corner to discuss his latest project: an album-length cover of the Beatles’ classic 1966 album, Revolver. Mo shared what it was like to record such an instrumentally and vocally complex album at home and discusses what he learned from such an intimate and sustained exploration of the material. We weigh in on the eternal Lennon vs McCartney debate, and take the usual detour to talk about Mo’s dad. As a finale, Charley shares some of his cherished Mo-memorabilia and we reminisce about the Portland music scene of yore (meaning about 10 years ago.) Please excuse the poor audio quality. Mo is a professional who came to the Zoom call properly mic-ed, but things didn’t go quite so smoothly over in the Corner. Needless to say we have learned our lesson.
