Fog City Blues

Sir Paul at 80

By Devon Strolovitch
Published June 17, 2022 at 9:00 AM PDT

The knighted Beatle was born on June 18, 1942.

It was 80 years ago today (er, Saturday) that Paul McCartney told the band to play, or at least the other newborns in Liverpool. Tune in 8-10 pm on the man's 80th birthday, for a celebration of the bluesier side (and beyond) of the cute(st) Beatle.
