Beatles ’80 pt3

It's summer 1980 and John Lennon is on the move. Following a holiday in South Africa, the reclusive former Beatle found himself in Bermuda, a location that would prove formative for the resurgence of musical endeavors and a major tap in the wellspring of creativity. Inspired by tales of new wave acts echoing the sounds that once solely graced the grooves of Yoko Ono solo LPs, John got to writing songs again...and writing A LOT. A correspondence began between him and Yoko in NY, wherein the couple would write and record demos of new songs for the other to hear over the phone...and before either had realized what was happening, a new album was beginning to form. While John churned away on his first new music in 5 years, Paul McCartney was back in the studio with Wings demoing new tracks for their follow-up to the prior year's Back to the Egg LP. But with Paul McCartney solo tunes on the charts...was Wings' fate sealed? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
