95. Paul and Linda McCartney “Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey” (from
Ram)

Beginning with the second side of
Abbey Road, Paul McCartney for a few years enjoyed taking song fragments he had been working on and mashing them together. This is one of those efforts, “Band on the Run”, which came out a couple of years later, was another. Of the three “multi-songs” I just mentioned, “Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey” is the weakest, but it’s still quite good, still vintage McCartney that some find annoying but most adore.
Despite the artist name, Linda had very little to do with it. I think she played some keyboards. Later that year, Paul changed the name of his band to “Paul McCartney & Wings”.
