LuxuriaMusic to Beatles: “Got to Get You Out of My Life” on Dec. 8

Internet Radio Station Stages Annual Salute Number 9, Number 9…

LOS ANGELES, CALIF.–In observance of the 28th anniversary of  John Lennon's  death, Internet radio station LuxuriaMusic (www.LuxuriaMusic.com)  will celebrate  the music of the Beatles in its own quirky way on Monday, December 8: by not playing one single Beatles performance. Instead,  LuxuriaMusic DJs will dig deep  into their CD and vinyl vaults to spin a solid 24 hours of artists--from the sublime to the psychotic--covering Beatles songs. This marks the station’s ninth annual  observation of Beatles Day.

Fans of the Fab Four will want to visit www.LuxuriaMusic.com to hear artists such as Ramsey Lewis, the Ventures, the Beach Boys, Enoch Light, Bud Shank,  the Hollyridge Strings and Vinnie Bell interpreting Beatles classics. Beatles non-believers can tune in to “enjoy” artists such as Pinky & Perky,  Homer & Jethro  and choruses of canines and out-of-tune children butchering the Beatles much like the band did to dolls on the original cover of its Yesterday  and Today album.

“All of us at LuxuriaMusic genuinely love the Beatles,” says station manager Chuck Kelley. “But really, pop culture is still so saturated with Beatles music on oldies radio, television and commercials that you don’t really have to sit down and listen to them anymore - you can just hear them in your head  and you’re  satisfied. So one of the few steadfast rules at LuxuriaMusic is DON’T PLAY THE BEATLES. There’s no reason to when there are so many  other great  under-appreciated artists to play. That said, we still love ’em and we want to celebrate their music in our own special way. The way we do that  is by playing idiotic moog synthesizer versions of ‘Lucy in The Sky with Diamonds,’ wordless-vocal covers of ‘Yesterday’ and then also the unquestionably  great non-ironic ‘covers’ that  exist out there.  It’ll be fun for both the DJ and the listener, I promise!”
