Ringo Starr's "Old Wave" (1983)


Listen Later

Commonly regarded (by no one) as one of the greatest post-Beatles solo projects of all time, this week T.J. and Tony finally dish deep upon Ringo Starr’s 1983 masterpiece, “Old Wave.” True to its title, Ringo and Joe Walsh teamed up to make a mid-70s record that was so hot, it wasn’t even originally released in the U.S.

Thankfully, in 2021, this rarity can be easily found on the internet to stream. Which is great news for fans, not so great news for T.J.’s side hustle selling bootleg burned German import CDs out of his trunk at the Lincoln Mall in Matteson.

Between tracks, the guys take a couple detours to revisit:

  • Paul’s passion for South Side slugger Frank Thomas
  • Eazy-E’s oft-overlooked cameo with the All-Starr Band
  • And great, miscellaneous moments in WKRP history
  • And, in what we have to assume is another first in podcast history, we may just take a quick pause to enjoy two full minutes of Chicagoland’s WGBO Super 66, originally broadcast in January, 1986.

    We don’t want to overhype this episode or anything, but let's just say it beats sleep.
