We recently told you about how hulu.com was streaming the Beatles' wonderful first film from1964 "A Hard Day's Night" for free for a limited time. (Actually, one more day, according to the site.) Now, another Beatles-related program has just debuted on the site.

"Live From Artist's Den," which is currently featuring a different artist on hulu.com every week through December, is now featuring the "Live From the Artist's Den" program with Ringo Starr and Ben Harper and Harper's band Relentless7. The program originally aired in July on PBS.

As we wrote in our review of the show, this is a great showcase for both artists. Ringo is relaxed and easy going throughout the show, especially on "Photograph," "Walk With You," "Boys", "The Other Side of Liverpool" and "With a Little Help From My Friends." He sings seven songs and Harper sings four.

You can see the program in the video slot at left. And you can read our coverage of the program, including an exclusive report of what happened when the program was originally taped, at the links below.
