How the Beatles Found Inspiration in the Byrds for 'If I Needed Someone' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
So often in music, what goes around comes around. It's how George Harrison's "If I Needed Someone" from 1965's Rubber Soul came to be.

But not many people Tariq's age — he turned 30 years old this year — get the kind of phone call he did earlier this summer. It came from Bob Dylan's team, asking if he'd like to come play a few shows with the band on tour. He acc

Read excerpt
Even in rock 'n' roll, there are sometimes deadlines to meet — labels, tour promoters and all sorts of other bureaucratic forces run a tight ship. But sometimes there really is no rush to get to the next thing, whatever that is, and so time can be taken to breathe for a moment, ponder what project may come next. Sometimes these moments turn into years and before an artist knows it, it's been decades since their last release. That's what we're taking a look at today: 20 of the Longest Gaps Betwee
