Cook of the House by Linda McCartney – ***

First released: 1976

Linda’s first lead vocal release from "Wings at the Speed of Sound", complete with various cooking noises. At the time I first heard this, I didn't know the McCartneys were such staunch vegetarians, as the sound effects used sound like bacon frying.

Linda used to be the butt of jokes with my friends and me, because we originally joined the choir about how Linda sucked (What’s a dog with wings? Linda McCartney). I have since revised my opinion of Linda.

Later on, this song was added to the Linda McCartney solo album "Wide Prairie" in 1998. It was also the b-side to "Silly Love Songs", so Linda got a hit record. Yay!
