Another Day By Paul McCartney - ****

First released: 1971

Though it began its life as a Beatles recording, as rehearsals do exist of this song from 1969, the proper version was recorded by Paul as his first single release. Strangely, "Maybe I’m Amazed" was never even considered for a single. This song in turn was never considered for album and didn’t turn up on an album until 1978’s "Wings Greatest", 1987’s "All The Best" and 2001’s "Wingspan". Strange, as it isn’t truly a Wings song. I enjoy it immensely for what it is, but it does seem a little lightweight for Paul and especially in comparison to what the other three Beatles were churning out by this time. It was also added to the UK CD reissue of "Ram" in 1993.
