P.S. I Love You by The Beatles – ***; by Paul McCartney - **

First released: 1962

Originally the flip side of The Beatles first single "Love Me Do", it was added to The Beatles first album "Please Please Me". For me, it is actually a stronger track than "Love Me Do", but oh well. This is one of two tracks that McCartney owns the rights to (the other being "Love Me Do") and that prompted his mash-up recording of "P.S. Love Me Do" which was a bonus track on the Japanese bonus disc of "Flowers in the Dirt" in 1989 and also recorded live on one of the "Tripping the Live Fantastic" CD singles. Will someone please tell Paul that even if you own something, it doesn’t mean you should re-record it?!!
