The Paul McCartney album that invented indie-pop

In this episode of the Behind The Song podcast, host Janda Lane explores the lyrics and history of "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" by Paul and Linda McCartney. Released on the Ram album, his second solo effort after the breakup of the Beatles, McCartney himself said the song was "quite daft," yet it became his first #1 hit as a solo artist.
