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

One of my favorite obscure Paul songs....Magnito and Titanium Man.

Red Rose Speedway was a good one.

there are some obvious ones covered here,
but the wings and solo is covered fairly well too

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!

'The Art of McCartney': The Making of a Massive Tribute Album

producer Ralph Sall : ..... In 2003, he decided to embark on his biggest project yet: a massive Paul McCartney tribute record.
"I never realized this would take me 10 years," Sall says.

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.
