I just stumbled upon a Coursera course on The Beatles. It's taught by a professor at Rochester University, and it's completely free. I took a course on Buddhism with Coursera a few months ago, and it was top-notch. There are discussion boards on there as well to discuss each lesson. Thought you all would be interested.
About the Course The Music of the Beatles will track the musical development of the band, starting from the earliest days in Liverpool and Hamburg, moving through the excitement of Beatlemania, the rush of psychedelia, and the maturity of Abbey Road. While the focus will be on the music, we will also consider how recording techniques, the music business, the music of other artists, and the culture of the 1960s affected John, Paul, George, and Ringo as they created the Beatles repertory.
There is probably no band or artist that has had more written about their music than the Beatles. There are many good books on the band's biography, several insider accounts offering glimpses behind the scenes, books that interpret the meaning of the songs, and even books that catalog dates and people regarding the band. This course will try to synthesize much of that information into an account of the Beatles' development as musicians and songwriters.

I'm in this course and I'm kind of obsessed with Coursera in general. I've taken a ton of science courses and one actually gave me CEUs for a certification that I hold. All fo' free!
I recommend Useful Genetics if you're into that kind of thing. Prf. Rosie Redfield is the best!
I just signed up for the Songwriting course - and today I got an email saying that it'll be taught by Pat Pattison! He's written a few books on writing lyrics, and he's absolutely PHENOMENAL at teaching songwriting. I'm geeking out more than a little bit over this.

WE'RE GONNA TAKE A CLASS TOGETHER.
I think there needs to be a Coursera classes thread where we can talk about materials in any and all Coursera classes we're taking.
I second that! Maybe I should take songwriting too. I enjoy all forms of writing but it would be interesting to learn about songwriting...also I might secretly start a band

Just a reminder that the songwriting course just started! I haven't done the first lesson yet though.
