DEVIN MCKINNEY: Still Gaining Acceptance

December 14, 2004 by Tim Riley

Milo Miles in WBUR’s Arts pages:

1) Magic Circles: The Beatles in Dream and History” by Devin McKinney (Harvard University Press). This looks to be the standard-setting meditation on the Beatles by a devoted, visionary fan too young to have known Beatlemania first-hand (McKinney was born in 1966). Nobody has chronicled missing out on the ’60s – and yearning for them – more vividly, or demonstrated how international superstars can become part of your personal history even if they were already history when you discovered them. McKinney’s analyses and reflections are never sober and reliable – which is the only way they can be so Fab.

I swear I showed my fesity Airhead unit to Milo at least five years back at Rock.com:

5) HeadRoom AirHead. Not enough people know about what is the finest music product around. You don’t think you need an amp for your headphones? Initially, the enriched depth of sound you get from this device is hard to accept – unreal. And, best of all, for the first time you never get tired listening to headphones.
