It's Get Back that he messed about with, Hey Jude was recorded.
Oh dear - that makes it worse.I think Elvis' version of Hey Jude is awful.He sounds like he struggles to make the high notes.

Never been into Elvis, liked a few of his songs, thats about it, in his favour tho, he could sing, i'm sure if he was starting out today, he would do quite well on American Idol.

FTD (Follow That Dream) is a specialty label dedicated to preserving the recordings of Elvis Presley. What follows is excerpted from their website... 'Hey Jude': A cover of the popular Lennon/McCartney song. Elvis recorded his version at American Studio's in 1969 as a jam song and it was never meant to be released. This song gets mixed reactions from Elvis fans out there. My view? I think it is great. Elvis isn't trying to be like The Beatles, he is still Elvis Presley. The key is changed to a point where Paul McCartney probably could never even sing it in. For me it is fresh with the American Studio's band playing with, and the end section of the "Na Na Na Na" has Elvis' voice sounds so raw and fresh when singing "Jude Jude Jude". However it does prove that it was a jam when Elvis indeed laughs at the end. http://home.online.no/~ov-egela/elvisnowftd.html For the record, I'm not big on Elvis' cover of "Hey Jude;" it's one of those songs that will always be associated with the original artist. However, as an informal jam that was only released due to a shortage of material, I can't be too hard on it, and I doubt The Beatles were too upset about being covered by Elvis...

I can't tell who's being snarked at in all of that. But Wild Life is an album I'm coming around to. I still don't get Mumbo. But I have come to love every song on Side 2 of that album (as well as Love is Strange). Wouldn't the best of McCartney and Wild Life have made an awesome album?

the only song i dont like on Wildlife is, "I am your Singer" the best from McCartney & Wildlife would as you say, made some album, then again, he could have brought out Band on the Run at that time and would still have got crucified..

This would have been a nice addition to the MTV unplugged album in 1991 if Paul would have included any Wings numbers. and speaking of Wild Life, here is my review: http://www.beatlessweden.com/modules/smartsection/item.php?itemid=10&sel_lang=english

Posibbly Wings at the Speed of Sound or Wildlife.But it's relative, because its better than most other artists best stuff.
I think a lot of it comes down to which of the lesser albums have the biggest redeeming features and both of those have big redeeming features. Wildlife's title track and Tomorrow and on SOS Let 'em in and Beware my love. I think that's pretty much the case with most of them though although I don't think any of them are that bad, most of them are fine enough for me.

My understanding of Mumbo is that it's Paul taking the piss out of all that primal therapy that was fashionable at the time - the mumbo jumbo approach to psychosis, and which Lennon had undergone for a while. However, I'd rather it wasn't even that - starting an album called Wild Life with a lot of screaming and noise sounds pretty apt to me. Taking a walk through an African Park one day I saw a sign say The animals have the right of way.
