Splendid versions of Numerous Lennon/McCartney Numbers. A pity however that The Fab4 never put all their "Gaveaways" into an Album. John mentioned once that they played their best music before they where famous and I think I understand his point of view. I like very much the covers that Paul made of songs of which he owns the rights. I think in particular on "It's Fabulous" and "Tragedy" allthough they never made the release on an album. Maybe an opportunity to do it while he still can?

Thanks Gino. An official album of songs given away was released in 1979 - https://www.the-paulmccartney-project.com/album/the-songs-lennon-and-mccartney-gave-away/ - even if it was not an exhaustive list.

Like you, I really like covers of oldies by Paul McCartney - aside the "Run Devil Run" and "Choba B CCCP", there are a few difficult-to-get tracks released here, there and everywhere. For instance, Elvis' "Now or Never" on this album: https://www.the-paulmccartney-project.com/album/the-last-temptation-of-elvis-an-all-star-tribute/

Thanks
