Career Analysis: Paul McCartney
|
Episode 19 of Career Analysis will be about one of the most important figures in the history of Rock music: Paul McCartney. It’s the first episode about a Rock artist, and the first episode to be on Rock genius.
This one was very confusing to deal with because of the many ways that Paul’s songs are credited. We will be looking at songs credited to “Paul McCartney”, “Paul and Linda McCartney” and “Paul McCartney and Wings”. We will not be looking at songs by “The Beatles” or “Wings”. Beatles will get their own episode fairly soon. Wings could possibly get their own episode someday.
EDIT: I’ve changed my mind and am now considering “Wings” a spelling variant of “Paul McCartney and Wings”, and therefor part of Paul McCartney’s solo discography.
The key is as follows:
Title = peak/weeks/debut/debut score/average position/ inverse point total.
Ram era (Early 1971 – Late 1971)
Another Day * = #5/12/#55/46/19.5/ 978
Uncle Albert = #1/13/#65/36/14.77/ 1,121
