James Bond's iconic ride is up for bid

That's right, the Aston Martin that Sean Connery tooled around in in "Goldfinger" goes on sale in October.

The silver 1964 Aston Martin DB5, dubbed by car auctioneers RM Auctions as "the world's most famous car," is expected to fetch at least $5 million.

The car is one of only two original Aston Martins featured on screen with Sean Connery behind the wheel in "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball." It comes with Bond gadgets including fake machine guns, revolving number plates and smoke screen.

Keith Richard teams with Nick Kent to write autobiography

The Rolling Stones guitarist will get a helping hand from the longtime rock writer in penning his memoirs.

Richards revealed last month that he is currently waiting to read the proofs of the book, which he hopes to release in October.

"I've helped Keith Richards write his upcoming book on the years of the early '70s. I helped fill in the early '70s, when things got really, really bad. I can understand why he forgot all about it. It just wasn't pleasant," Kent explained.

NPR looks for the best album-closing track ever

What's the ultimate final tune on an album? NPR is looking for listener input. Obviously, "A Day in the Life" on the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper is nothing to sneeze at. That's the one NPR uses on its website announcing this contest. But what are some others?

I'll probably think of more, but off the top of my head, I'm a big fan of The Kinks' "Days," which closes out the band's Village Green Preservation Society album. Strong choices in this contest require strong over-all albums, and VGPS definitely fits that bill. If I come up with more, I'll let you know. In the meantime, enjoy The Kinks!

BBC Radio 2 airs Beatles Let it Be documentary

You can hear it, today only, here.

To mark the 40th anniversary of the release of Let It Be, and the accompanying Academy Award-winning film (both released in May 1970), Guy Garvey tells the story of the fractious and often bitter sessions that documented the demise of The Beatles.

Featuring contributions from many of those who worked on the Let It Be sessions, including director Michael Lindsay-Hogg, engineer Alan Parsons, photographer Ethan Russell, author Richard DiLello and engineers Dave Harries and Brian Gibson, this programme explains how a project (originally a TV documentary, titled Get Back, which was designed to re-energise the band and capture their stripped down rock'n'roll roots), instead documented power struggles, bickering and conflict.

Newly discovered dino named after Marvel Comics' Loki

Pretty cool.

Loki was a Norse god – and later a Marvel Comics villain – whose reputation for trickery signified the difficulty Ryan initially had pinning down the dinosaur's identity. "We had a lot of confusion with this," he said. "And if you look at the way they draw Loki in the original comic, he has this big helmet with these two giant hooks that come out of the top. So it's coincidental that it all lines up. I thought it made a great name."
