Arrow Through Me by Paul McCartney - ***

First released: 1979

I always liked the bass line on this otherwise slow, but catchy song. It was released as the second and final single from Paul’s final Wings album "Back to the Egg", but "Old Siam, Sir" may have made for a better choice. The song was also used in the 1980 movie "Oh Heavenly Dog" starring Chevy Chase and Benji, but no soundtrack album was issued.

"Around The Beatles" (aka "The Beatles Live") by The Beatles - ****

First released: 1964

Film and eventual video of early live performances of The Beatles on US TV. Features an exciting version of "Shout" and a medley of Beatles hits. I wish they'd put this one on DVD.

Around and Around by The Beatles - **

Unreleased.

The Beatles run through this 1956 Chuck Berry classic during the "Get Back" sessions in 1969. It actually is a half-way decent recording and virtually complete that it could be releaseable.

Arizona Light by Paul McCartney - *

First released: 1994

A track from McCartney's trance album "Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest" released under the pseudonym The Fireman. Every track on this album sounds the same, so if you are not a big fan of trance music (I’m not), this is not the McCartney music for you.

Appletree Cinnabar Amber by Paul McCartney - *

First released: 1989

Another trance track from Paul's (a.k.a. The Fireman) album "Rushes". I find stuff like this quite monotonous and boring and as it doesn’t seem to be like Paul and more like Youth, Paul's collaborator. It’s only listed here for completeness’ sake.

Apple Scruffs by George Harrison - ***

First released: 1970

Named after the various groupies that used to lurk around Apple studios, George composed this simple ode and included it on the "All Things Must Pass" album and it also graced the b-side of the "What is Life" single. Fine strumming guitar work appears throughout. I also like George’s yodeling vocal.

"Apple Jam" by George Harrison - *

First released: 1970

The useless third disc from "All Things Must Pass". I’m not a big fan of jamming in general, and this jamming seemed somewhat uninspired. The only high point being "It’s Johnny’s Birthday" and the fact that they incorporated a few bits from George's "Electronic Sound".
