For Episode 301 - This week on 2Legs, Andy and Tom take a dive into the sales of DUNGEON LANE, Physical vs. Streaming and why did it not sell as many copies at McCARTNEY III or EGYPT STATION? We discuss potential reasons for this and the recent appearance at the Roundhouse in London! Why do you think this hasn't sold as many physical copies? Let us know! Andy and Tom Patreon
Five and a half years after his last solo studio album, we finally have a BRAND NEW Paul McCartney record! To mark this historic occasion—and celebrate the 300th episode of 2Legs—Andy and Tom are proud to present our in-depth review of Paul's latest release, THE BOYS OF DUNGEON LANE released on 29th May 2026. Rather than rush out a "first listen" reaction, we wanted to spend a few days living with the album, absorbing the songs, studying the lyrics, and getting to know the record before sharing our thoughts. We felt an album this significant deserved that time and attention. The verdict? We absolutely love it. For us, "THE BOYS OF DUNGEON LANE stands comfortably alongside some of Paul's finest post-Beatles work, including TUG OF WAR, FLAMING PIE and BAND ON THE RUN. It's a rich, rewarding listen that continues to reveal new layers with every spin. We know many of our loyal subscribers have been patiently waiting for our review, and we wanted to make sure we got it right. We hope you enjoy our discussion, presented with accompanying images and audio throughout. Now it's your turn: What do you think of The Boys of Dungeon Lane? Masterpiece? Instant classic? Or simply another entry in Paul's incredible catalogue? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below—we can't wait to hear them. It's 2026, and Paul McCartney has just released a brand-new album. What an extraordinary gift for fans after all these years. We hope this album brings you as much joy, excitement, and inspiration as it has brought us. P eace, Andy & Tom 2Legs: A Paul McCartney Podcast 🎸✌️
Andy and Tom originally recorded this shortly after watching the Man On The Run documentary back in February, as it sparked some really interesting conversation among fans. One topic that has always fascinated us is Paul’s infamous “It’s A Drag” comment regarding the tragic death of John Lennon — a quote that, in our opinion, has been widely misunderstood for decades. After seeing the documentary, and especially hearing Sean Lennon’s thoughtful understanding of the moment, we felt it was worth revisiting the subject in a deeper way. Add in the differences between British and American colloquialisms, and it’s easy to see how Paul’s words were interpreted very differently than intended. Either way… you knew we were going to defend our guy here. Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
Greetings, excited Macca fans! Andy and Tom have just returned from an unforgettable trip to Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, where they attended the grand opening of the brand-new WINGS exhibit, beautifully curated by Andy Leach. It was fantastic catching up with members of our amazing 2Legs Family and exploring everything this incredible exhibit has to offer. Be sure to check out Andy’s video for highlights from the weekend! Andy extended his stay and was lucky enough to attend a special presentation and intimate mini-concert featuring Laurence Juber and Steve Holley on Saturday. Despite their relatively short time in WINGS, both remain incredibly loyal and passionate supporters of Paul McCartney and his music. Andy, Heidi, and Joan even had the chance to meet them following the event! After an action-packed day, we rushed back to our hotels just in time to catch Paul’s appearance on Saturday Night Live! While we expected “Days,” we were genuinely surprised that no Beatles songs made the broadcast setlist. We absolutely loved the performance. Were there a few rough edges? Maybe. But honestly… it’s PAUL McCARTNEY. Watching a living legend still out there performing is always something special. Paul deserves to be celebrated. What about you? Are you planning a trip to the Hall this summer? What did you think of the SNL performance? Let us know in the comments below! Our Patreon Andy's HOF Reel
As we take a break this week from any DUNGEON LANE News and give Ringo some airtime, Andy and Tom were afforded the opportunity to review the recent BBC Documentary "The Hunt For The Lost Bass". We give our thoughts and opinions on this cute story and it's principal players including Paul, Klaus Voorman, Nick Wass, Scott and Naomi Jones who started the search for the bass with #TraceTheBass ultimately leading to its discovery at the end of 2022. Although not an MPL production Paul and his team obviously have given their approval for this film and we enjoyed it for what it was. If you've had an opportunity to see it, let us know! And which "bass" do you prefer? The 1961 or 1963 one? Or Another? See you next time! A ndy and Tom
Even as I was editing this update, even more news just broke! A listening party will be held in LA next week, April 16th 5PM PST for "The Boys of Dungeon Lane" Wow!

For Episode 295 of 2Legs, Andy and Tom are joined by friend and fellow podcaster Mitch Axelrod (Fab4Free4All) as we break down "Man On The Run" as it gets ready for it's worldwide release on Amazon Prime this Friday, February 27th. Mitch is always a pleasure to talk to, has great insights and this live episode was broadcast over YouTube with some fierce but passionate commentary. We hope you enjoy it, and the film when it is released! Peace Andy and Tom
Hello Everyone! With all the hype surrounding the upcoming MAN ON THE RUN documentary this week Andy and Tom decided to breakdown and discuss if Paul's most commercially successful album BAND ON THE RUN will or should be the album he will be remembered for? We look at it objectively and agree although we have our favourites as we know you all do to. Let us know your thoughts on this album. Will it be the one people go to 10-20 years from now if they're into McCartney or will they gravitate to PRESS TO PLAY? Also the "New York Taxi" Yellow Vinyl Soundtrack is available from Capitol if you're still looking for one!

We discuss more merch shipping woes, and finally we took a dive back into The Lyrics book and chose two songs to read pieces from and give our thoughts on what those songs mean to us!

Hi All! For E290 Andy & Tom catch up on last week's announcement of the new WINGS compilation dropping in November, discuss what we're happy with and not, tracks that should've been included, 3rd party ticketing nonsense, more merch and yet another date added to the GOT BACK tour kicking off in Santa Barbara! The 4th Quarter is in full swing! Let us know in the comments what you're getting, if you're going for the show in CA and if you have experienced issues with Ticketmaster/AXS about any of the shows that do not honour 3rd party tickets and what have you been able to do to resolve it? We'll see ya next time! Andy & Tom
Hi Gang! Freshly rested from the FEST and kicking off a new month we're back with a new episode where we revisit a documentary. This time it's 1993's "Movin' On" directed by Aubrey Powell, which chronicles the making of Paul's album Off The Ground and ensuing "Live In The New World" Tour. We found Paul to be a bit more upbeat and comedic in this one contrasted against the previous "making of" doc "Put It There." I think we can tell the success of the 1989-90 tour gave him a sense of pride and accomplishment. It's evident in his demeanor in this. Other guest stars in the doc, Richard Lester, (Director) Brian Clarke (Tour Designer), Kevin Godley (Director/10CC), Robbie Mcintosh, Hamish Stuart, Blair Cunningham. This doc is notable for the 30 seconds or so of the McCartney-Stuart collaboration "Is It Raining In London?" Andy hadn't seen this in full before viewing it here in the episode. Tom gave it a review before we recorded. What say you about this doc. Do let us know in the comments! Till next time, Andy & Tom Article Referenced regarding the Amazon Deal:
Welcome Back 2Legs Faithful! As we close out another month, this week we are happy to share this episode with you, which we've called "Flowers In The Ground"! We've discussed how these albums pair up against each other and if we had to make one album out of the two what would that album look like. Using the Beatles 14 songs per album approach we widdled Flowers and Off The Ground down and titled it "Flowers In The Ground"!" We did this once with Tug of War/Pipes of Peace and we felt this would be a fun exercise to do. Many of our viewers/listeners feel strongly about this period in Paul's touring career, one that given his touring since 2002 has kind of fallen by the wayside despite having a really talented backing band with Hamish Stuart, Robbie McIntosh, Chris Witten, Blair Cunningham and of course the ever present Wix Wickens! What would your "Flowers In The Ground" look like? Let us know in the comments! This will be our final show until the Chicago FEST! See you there! Peace! Andy & Tom Interview with Robbie McIntosh
This past week Paul's Pre-Sale for the 2025 Fall North American Tour was announced and on Tuesday diehard fans like us all tried with a myriad of mixed results! Ticketmaster and their "Dynamic Pricing" was a hot bed issue. For this special episode we invited members of the 2Legs Family to join us and share their experiences. Thank You to MVP, Joan, Beatley Tone, Boyan, James, Jeremy and Ted for sharing your ticketing saga! We also pointed out the fact that several content creators incorrectly are blaming Paul for 3rd party exorbitant pricing. Are you all in got the GOT BACK North American Tour? We are! Let us know!
A fun one this week! For Episode 285 Andy and Tom play a fun little exercise called "One Album, One Word", where we go through Paul's discography (Main canon albums + Electric Arguments) and describe it using an adjective! We open with tour rumours (we recorded this before the announcement on Thursday) and then get to it! What word would you use to describe these same albums? Let us know in the comments below! See you "Out There!" Peace Andy & Tom
Hello 2Legs Family, We have a very special one-off non Macca episode to share with you. As most of you know Brian Wilson, of the Beach Boys recently passed away in June 2025 at the age of 82. His music has had a profound effect in the development of Andy's musical education along the way. For this episode, Andy paired up with Jonathan Petrus (Ranking The Beatles) and vinylbenjy (of Instagram fame) as all three of us have a shared love and passion of Brian and The Beach Boys music. We share our Beach Boys origins, some deep cut favourites, and lastly our Top 10 Fav's! In the comments, let us know your Top 10! Thanks to Jonathan and Benjy for hopping on for this special tribute. You both brought back many memories! We are a Paul channel, and we know his love of Pet Sounds we feel this was a worthy special episode to drop here because of the significance, love, joy and creativity that Brian Wilson brought us. Love and Mercy Andy - Links: https://rankingthebeatles.com/ https://www.instagram.com/vinylbenjy/
Welcome Back 2Legs Fam! This week we present another Interview Archive Series with Macca. When we do this we try to cherry pick rare and not often seen/discussed interviews. It's late 1987. Paul is riding the wave of success of his 2nd career spanning compilation "All The Best!". He has also been making the rounds on TV shows in Europe to promote his top selling single 'Once Upon A Long Ago' (also included on the UK "All The Best!" only). In the (audio only) interview conducted by Stefan Schlabritz & Slizzy Bob we hear Paul joke about his skills in the german language, the tracks chosen for All The Best!, working with Elvis Costello and Chris Witten to start a new band, and Once Upon A Long Ago. He also discusses his Sgt. Pepper nostalgic pastiche "Return To Pepperland" and compares it with George's 'When We Was Fab'. Something not heard again much from Macca. He also outlines the vision for what will become "The Beatles Anthology" documentary was was only a few years away from happening. We close out the episode with an alternate mimed performance of 'Once Upon A Long Ago' from the German TV Programme Wetten Das. See you guys after the 4th of July! Peace Andy & Tom
Hello Everyone! Joining us this week is our friend, author and journalist Luca Perasi! As he celebrates the publication of his latest work "Press To Play | That Unmistakable 80s Sound" chronicling the "hot take" "Love It or Hate It" record that divides McCartney fans nearly 40 years later! One of the more significant people Luca was able to interview for the book was esteemed 1980s Producer Hugh Padgham (Genesis/The Police/Phil Collins) among many others. We know the relationship and direction over the album took many turns and misunderstandings, especially where Eric Stewart comes into the picture. Luca brings up many hypothesis' for these missteps. The book also takes a very detailed technical approach with the album including detail on instruments used as well as the key people that worked on the album (Arrangers, Other Musicians etc). Luca also does a fine job of contextualising the 1980s Pop Culture zeitgeist through the mediums of video games and technology. Congrats again to Luca on his latest book!
