O3L discussing their favorite songs inspired by the sound and spirit of the Fab Four? Yeah, yeah, yeah!

 

Our special guest this week is a progenitor of power pop, a fine purveyor of Beatlesque bops, RAY PAUL! Ray joins us to discuss his long and storied music career that stretches back to the days of Beatlemania, his hitmaking years on the Boston scene finding "The Charles Beat", his label Permanent Press, and crossing paths with just about anyone and everyone. As Uncle Gregg calls him, he's "the Forrest Gump of Power Pop."

 

Speaking of crossing paths, it seems that Brett has crossed paths with Ray in the past...listen to find out how.

 

It's a double helping of O3L this week. Listen to the main episode, but make sure to stick around for the amazing stories from rock n' roll's past in the bonus extended episode!
