  • In Review - Ram by Paul McCartney
    Nov 2 2023

    Season 1, Episode 5: In Review - Ram by Paul McCartney

     

    (Originally released on May 18, 2023 - This episode was shelved for audio quality reasons between June 2023 and January 2024. When we recorded the episode, we were unable to use our usual studio, so we opted for a makeshift recording rig at home instead. This caused the audio to be of a very low quality, so the episode was taken down until we could figure out how to make the much needed improvements. It isn't perfect, but it's 10x better than the original release. This is episode 5 of season 1. Enjoy!)

     

    Description:

    It's our long lost 5th episode! Our in-depth analysis of Paul McCartney's sophomore album, Ram, is out now. Join us as we discuss the record and dive into all things McCartney. Find out why Luke considers this to be one of his favorite solo-Beatle projects. Is Paul dead? What is a Monkberry Moon Delight? Find out now on the season 1 finale of OBU-FM.
