Yesterday and Today

Summer 1992 is here and Ringo Starr is back on the road with his All Starr Band! This second installment of Ringo's successful tour formula (as evidenced in the triumphant 1989 version) includes familiar faces Joe Walsh and Nils Lofgren, plus new sounds from Todd Rundgren, Dave Edmunds, Timothy B. Schmit, Burton Cummings, Tim Cappello, and a very special guest on drums, Ringo's son Zak Starkey! From Holmdel to Kansas and onward to Liverpool and Europe, this collection of musical legends once again celebrate The Beatles and solo hits Starr is known for - plus live cuts from the new Time Takes Time album. As the All Starrs hit the road to conquer it once more, Paul McCartney's new LP was taking shape... 

With Ringo Starr's new LP Time Takes Time receiving some of the most favorable reaction since Ringo's mid-70's efforts, all was well in June of 1992. SO well, in fact, that another ALL STARR BAND tour was planned and underway, this time sporting some new music from a new LP - a first for Ringo. As an all-new cast of All-Starrs set their sights on New York, Paul McCartney celebrated birthday #50 with a planned new release of his own, which he and the band continued to hone and refine...

Summer 1991 and Macca's Oratorio

Live, from Springfield, it's Yesterday & Today's fabulous 211th episode - 1991 pt2! Well, maybe not LIVE, exactly, but certainly from Springfield, as this episode features the first of the Beatle cameos on the iconic cartoon primetime staple The Simpsons. When Homer stumbles upon Marge's old portrait tribute to Ringo Starr, The Simpsons re-enter the art scene to dramatic results. Even more dramatic, perhaps, is the cutaway scenes featuring none other than Ringo Starr himself, who is STILL responding to his 1960's fan mail when he too stumbles upon Marge's portrait. This iconic appearance will herald many more on the show - and also coincides with another as-yet-to-be iconic appearance by a former Beatle on a different TV channel. MTV's new Unplugged series has just debuted, and Paul McCartney's live LP of the recorded performance is out in the world! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

1991 starts with a bang! Or is it a twist? The Traveling Wilburys' latest single The Wilbury Twist is the latest release from the super-group whose popularity continued well on into the new year, and signaled the continued resilience of the George Harrison comeback of the prior decade. While George and pals were twisting, Paul McCartney was back on stage with a new iteration of his touring band - this time to to kick-off the new MTV show titled Unplugged. In one of the most intimate and deep-cut-laden performances of his post-Beatles career, McCartney too was on a winning streak into 1991 - and this was only the beginning... Hosted on Acast.
