      The results of the fun poll are in, thank you to all those who voted. This poll was created when I realised that 'New' was Sir Paul's 20th studio album. I understand those who value the live albums, hits, acoustic or classical. The closest was 'Give My Regards' which does contain some new studio recordings. Anyway, 20 is a nice round number and when divided into 5 gives a number of 4. So I thought of 4 pots of 5. There are other options but I went with this one. I allocated positions on chronological order, so pot 1 got the debut album, pot 2 got the follow up and so on. So pot's went :- Pot 1 - 1,5,9,13,17 Pot 2 - 2,6,10,14,18 Pot 3 - 3,7,11,15,19 Pot 4 - 4,8,12,16,20 As mentioned in the poll's title - it's just for fun.

      If I had some more time to spend, then I guess I'd be with you my friend.

          The Final The winner of each pot progresses to the grand final. Voting takes place from now until Saturday 26th Oct 23:59 I did not intend on finding the 'worst' Paul album but as it turns out there are also 4 albums that received zero votes. Fell free to vote in each or just one poll. Or just comment and sit out. Either way, as I have mentioned from the start - It's just for fun. Vote 1 - Which of these is your Favourite album? a) Ram (1971) b) Band On The Run (1973) c) Tug Of War (1982) d) Flaming Pie (1997) Vote 2 - Which of these is your least favourite album? a) Pipes Of Peace (1983) b) Press To Play (1986) c) Driving Rain (2001) d) Memory Almost Full (2007)

          If I had some more time to spend, then I guess I'd be with you my friend.

            As much as I love 'Ram' I'm voting for 'Band On The Run' as my favourite. Least favourite - 'Press To Play'

                        I didn't vote before because I didn't know "New" well enough yet. I, too, wish I could vote for "Chaos," but for now I would give the same results as above.

Worst Album - Pipes Of Peace (3 votes) Press To Play had 2 votes and Driving Rain & Memory Almost Full received 1 each. Thanks to everyone who voted. Next week I'll be doing a fun poll on all of Paul's singles. (Only Joking)
