Anyone who is anyone is gearing up for the April 2012 A to Z Blogging Challenge. Originally I hadn’t planned a theme. I’m not normally a theme person per se. However, the more I learned about the challenge, and those participating, the more I realized that I did indeed need a theme. So here it goes. After originally considering a tropical theme, I realized it was way too broad. I try to write what I know, so I decided on The Beatles A to Z, including solo works. Love them or hate them, there is a ton of fun material. Here is the tentative list. I’m even going to try to tie it all together à la a concept album, an idea pioneered by the Beatles. Enjoy!
Oh, and by the way, do check out Nickers And Ink, an online friend who will also be participating this year!

Cool project!
Thank you! I love the Beatles.
I’ll admit I’ve never really been a Beatles fan. I’ve always been more into the Rolling Stones, Queen, Led Zeppelin, etc. (It’s what I was raised on.) But, I’ll definitely check out your A-Z to hear some stuff I haven’t heard in a long time/ have never heard. Looking forward to your April posts!
Thank you so much!

Wow! I’m feeling like a slacker. You have it all figured it out and displayed! Quite a feat.
I don’t like The Beatles too much simply because they have way too many fans–yeah. I’m a rebel like that–but I do enjoy knowing a bit more about one of the most influential bands in history. Thanks for this most comprehensive study. I’m sure people could write a thesis from your challenge. 😉
