Being a child in a space generally meant for, and currently filled with, adults can be both an exciting and unnerving experience. My father was a music photographer who especially loved jazz (while also capturing many rock legends with his lens) and I would often be the only kid at Ronnie Scott’s, the famous London jazz club, or the lone under-ager in the photo pit at a music festival, sometimes helping my dad load his film in an era before digital cameras.

Welcome to the 35th Songs of the Week of 2023. This week Andy Von Pip, Caleb Campbell, and Scott Dransfield, all helped me decide what should make the list. We settled on a Top 10 this week.

The Beatles are releasing what’s being described as their last song, “Now and Then,” next Thursday, November 2 at 10 a.m. EDT. They have also announced new 2023 editions of "1962-1966" (aka “The Red Album”) and "1967-1970" (aka “The Blue Album”), which will feature the new song.

London trio Girl Ray have shared a new song, “Hurt So Bad,” which was recorded with Al Doyle and Joe Goddard of Hot Chip. It follows Prestige, a new album they released in August via Moshi Moshi.
