Episode 126 - "Flaming Pie"

2Legs is back! 20 years ago (yes 20!)  and fresh off the heels of The Beatles Anthology Paul McCartney released one of his best albums to date. Join Tom Hunyady and David Gargalino as they discuss 1997's "Flaming Pie!" With no album needed for two years Paul was able to take his time and write and record at his own leisure. While doing so he had the help of Ringo Starr, Jeff Lynne and Steve Miller, as well as Linda and son James. The result ended up being one of his most fun and critically acclaimed albums!
