Oobu Joobu

    Oobu Joobu was a radio show created by Paul McCartney in 1995 and described by McCartney as "wide-screen radio".[1] The program aired on the American radio network Westwood One and its name was inspired by a BBC production of Alfred Jarry's Ubu Cocu. Because the show's material included demos, rehearsals, live performances, and unreleased recordings of Paul McCartney and The Beatles, many of the programs have been bootlegged.
