Paul and Linda McCartney’s ‘RAM”

The Rochmon Record Club will converge to listen to and learn about Paul McCartney’s 2nd album after leaving The Beatles, “Ram”, at The Linda, WAMC’s Performing Arts Studio, 339 Central Ave., Albany. “Ram”, released in 1971, is credited to both Paul & Linda. While poorly received by the critics, “Ram” went to #2 in the US, and #1 in the UK, providing McCartney his first solo #1 single, “Uncle Albert and Admiral Halsey”. Paul was onto something, channeling the future and pointing to where music would be 52 years after “Ram’s” release. “Ram” is one of those albums that gets better with age and sounds as vital today as when it was recorded. All those reviewers have since changed their tune. Come hear why “Ram” is now considered to be one of McCartney’s best, post-Beatles albums. Tickets are available online at thelinda.org

Rochmon Record Club Listening Parties begin at 7 pm with a live audio & video presentation by Chuck Vosganian aka “Rochmon”. A Rochmon Record Club Listening Party is meant to inform and deepen our understanding of the history of the individual performers, the songs and stories that went into the making of this iconic album.
