I'm often accused of giving to little It's got me confused I'm split down the middle Conflicting reviews of our life coming in It's tough on a tightrope   The 1980s collaborations continue for 2 Legs!  This week Tom, Andy and special guest Journalist Eoghan Lyng (Culture Sonar, U2 Every Album, Every Song), discuss the McCartney-Eric Stewart partnership.  The duo had a history going back to the 60s when Eric was a member of the Mindbenders and would cross paths occasionally with The Fabs.  In 1981 McCartney invited Eric coming freshly off his 10CC experience to work on Tug Of War.  He also contributed significantly to Pipes Of Peace and Give My Regards To Broad Street.  The partnership reached its apex with McCartney's 1986 LP Press To Play where Eric was initially tapped to co-produce but ultimately ended being credited as "Special Contribution" despite co-writing half of the album.  Tom, Andy and Eoghan (who interviewed Eric Stewart in 2018) discuss a bit of Eric's background, the origins and success of 10CC and his work with Paul.     Eoghan's Links: Eoghan's Website Eoghan's U2 Book!   Reach Us: 2legspodcast@gmail.com  www.2legspodcast.com Facebook Twitter Instagram
