BONUS EPISODE! Paul's 80th Birthday - A Paul appreciation chat and song discussion with guest Sean Nelson
We've been on a break between seasons, but being Paul McCartney's 80th birthday, we felt we wanted to contribute our little part to the conversation and global love fest. When our friend and previous guest, musician Sean Nelson reached out and asked if we wanted to chat about our favorite Paul songs, it seemed the perfect way to do so. There's certainly no shortage of words being written to sing his praise, but to us, the best way to show our appreciation is with his music. What can be said that hasn't been said 1000 times already? Probably a lot really, there's so much to talk about with the Beatles, especially Paul, who continues creating and working into his's 8th decade. So we each chose our top 5 Paul Beatle songs and top 5 post Beatle Paul songs. The songs aren't ranked the same way we normally do them. Jonathan's Beatle songs are more a "top 5 unappreciated" list, not reflective of what's in the official RTB ranking...can't let the secrets out!! And like everyone, our list probably has changed since we compiled them, but these are songs we love wanted to share of love of, along with our love of Paul. Happy birthday Paul, here's to another 80 years of sharing your gifts with all of us! This is a free form, largely unedited conversation, recorded today, June 18th, 2022, Paul's birthday. We wanted to "Instant Karma" it and record and post same day, so please forgive any extra "um's" or dog noises in the background. Check out Sean's most recent single, "Viral Love" on Apple Music or anywhere you stream good music. What are your favorite Paul songs?
