After a turn as the bass player for obscure Liverpudlian rock ensemble The Beatles, Paul McCartney figuratively reinvented himself after an entirely amicable band break-up by moving to rural Scotland and actually-inventing the sounds and aesthetics of “indie-pop” at least a decade and a half before that term came into popular use. “Ram” was brutally dismissed by the superstar rock critics of the day as well as Ringo Starr and John Lennon, but the collaboration between Paul and his wife Linda has since undergone a kinder and fairer revaluation by the likes of Pitchfork and the world at large.


Ram is also the 450th Greatest Album of All Time, according to Rolling Stone magazine in 2021. This week, Christopher and Liam listened to it and now they’re going to talk about it. Featuring good shouts and hot takes from the boys on subjects as varied as bad breath and smiling to vegetarian sausages and how much of a wank John Lennon is. All that plus Secret Posho, Tattoo Woohoo/Tattoo Boohoo, plus much much more. Enjoy!
