For me, Macca hasn't done anything of interest for decades, which is odd considering the magnificence of his Beatles stuff.
On a personal level, his "thumbs up", everyman persona grates on me.
Given that he's written & recorded some of the 20th Centuries' greatest songs though, it seems churlish to criticise...
just been looking through some old threads, from before i joined and found this one.
that thumbs up thing gets to me also Tiggi, but come on!!! Macca has made some fantastic albums since the Beatles, some of his finest tunes ever are his solo album tracks 'through our love', 'its not true' and 'beautiful night' spring straight to mind. i think John,Paul and George have made some very good solo material...but comparing it to their partnership in the 1960s its always going to look ordinary, i truly believe most artists would love to make a Paul McCartney quality album...melodic,tuneful,nice lyrics
