It's plain scary how many timeless melodies Paul has written! I think out of that list I like Junk best.
My favourite McCartney album is Ram and one of his oddest tunes is a favourite of mine "lunch box/odd sox"- think from Venus and mars

I listened to a lot of this last night. I believe I read that PM's band was used for the recordings, which explains why I liked Def Leppard's Helen Wheels so much!

man, i thought there were more musicians/beatles/mac/whatever lovers here,
real surprised this didn't garner more interest.
starting to think it's just not worth the time to bother posting stuff like this.
i thought it was way cool!
oh well, carry on.

To be frank Bats, I've had about all the Beatles/related matters I can be doing with, for a lifetime. They were good, then they split up. Just like any other band. 'Maybe I'm Amazed' was a fantastic track, post Beatles, but that's about it for Macca; and it was a loooong time ago.. Lennon's solo stuff was horrible, as was Harrison's. There. Sue me.

just so it's clear...
these are other artists covering mac's tunes.
some are straight covers, and some go off on tangents.
so it's really not a purely beatles related matter.
infact, it's really nothing about that at all.
and that's being frank.

Bats I think this is very interesting and cool as well. It is testament to McCartney that all these great artists were willing and keen to do it.
Unfortunately the Pandora thing won’t work here in Australia.
What james is saying about Lennon and Harrison is opinion only. Remember that. Personally I felt that Lennon was the Beatles and his material after the Beatles is actually quite exceptional as was Harrisons.
But I agree with bats in that this is not really a purely Beatles thing at all.

and that's being frank. Sure, I get that. I'd just rather listen to something new than Beatles covers or endless Hendrix barrel scrapings. In fact, I'd rather listen to your stuff, (or Distant Towers, or Big Big Train)

Of course. What else would it be?

Wonder if we'll be getting a new Lennon out-takes CD this year because it's 24 years after his death :)
But I reckon some of those post beatles Lennon albums were dynamite. Some of the songs you never hear anymore like Old Dirt Road and Out the Blue are really cool.

I haven't heard it yet Bat so didn't and still don't have much to say about it.
I've been spending most of my listening time with loads of new albums but will probably
check out a few of the covers that I like the tunes or players.
Didn't know about it so thanks for the heads-up.

I was surprised by a few of the tunes. I couldn't wait to hear Dylan sing a Beatle song or Kiss do Wings.

for me, it wasnt' so much that it's macs tunes, as it is the particular artists who wanted to cover any of them.
it's quite the line up.
