McCarteny's career as a solo artist has had it's ups and downs, but even his worst albums have always had a track or two worth noting. Collected here are all his top ten singles... and they cover quite a range. Out & out rock to ballads, mainstream pop to oddball singles, they are all here. Listening to this disc is like getting the overview as to why Paul McCartney has remained as important as a solo artist as he was being a Beatle. Every track that was made in the 70's is classic like 'Band on the Run' 'My Love' 'Live and let Die' 'Uncle Albert/Adm. Halsey' 'Junior's Farm' 'Silly Love Songs' to name just a few... though he slipped some in the 80's(tracks with Stevie Wonder & Micheal Jackson), 'No More Lonely Nights' is a standout with a breathtaking guitar solo by Pink Floyd's David Gilmour. Also rare tracks like 'C-Moon' and the live version of 'Coming Up' show his ability to work in other music styles and to re-invent studio work for the stage. Though lyrics have never been his strong point, musically one would be hard pressed to deny the legacy of his solo career(now over three times the length of his time in the Beatles) listening to this collection of songs. Since the release of this 'Hits Collection' his work has been consistently growing and moving forward... check out "Flowers in the Dirt", "Flaming Pie", "Driving Rain", "Chaos & Creation in the Backyard" and most recently "Memory Almost Full".Read full review
Although the Beatlea disbanded in 1970, the four individual members continued to produce some very remarkable music. "All The Best" brings together several of Paul McCartney's finest recordings onto one CD. Now, you can once again relive the memories of such classics as "Band On The Run", "Another Day". "Junior's Farm", "Jet", "Let 'Em In", "With A Little Luck" and "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey", among others. This CD makes the perfect companion to John Lennon's "Lennon Legend", George Harrison "Let It Roll" and Ringo Starr's "Photograph". What a great way to relive the legacy of the solo Beatles.
This is a great compilation of all your favorite Wings songs when Paul first went solo. I think Paul and Linda had a lot of fun making the music and I love the songs for their simplicity and upbeat tempo. Silly Love Songs I think is my favorite for that reason. These were "feel good" years around the bicentennial before all the hard metal and "big hair" music started coming out in the 80's.
All the best by Sir Paul McCartney is a fabulous collection of wonderful songs produced over a tremendously long and significant career. The songs in this collection are timeless and priceless. They are priceless because these songs invoke the ability to transport the active listener to a wonderful time and place that is precious and perhaps long forgotten. I have enjoyed this cd so much that this is the second copy I have needed to purchase because I keep wearing them out! The gift of great Music is a monumental feat that Sir Paul continues to deliver regardless of which generation you happen to come from. Be a part of the positivity and give yourself a lift by purchasing this collection for yourself or someone else as a gift!
I've always been a fan so this is one I didn't have
