I will get to this exercise, once I reconcile myself with the fact you have completely disregarded "Back to the Egg". Listen to it and ask yourself the last time you heard that magnificent voice ever sound so good/rough/primal.... Some great tracks on this. And as much as I love the rock and roll and heavy, the best tracks also come under the name of soul, pop and jazz. A very underrated album. I love it.

Did the OP mean for us to pick 3 songs on each album or just 3 songs that were Wings/solo? I go with the latter: Maybe I'm Amazed My Love Beautiful Night Honorable mention to: Calico Skies No More Lonely Nights Appreciate (because it's really hard to just pick 3!)

I agree. I love this album but also think that it's a travesty Wildlife has been disregarded; Tomorrow is one of his finest early solo pieces imho.

I'm guessing the OP doesn't have those 2 albums?

I'll agree w/ you on "Back to the Egg"

"Getting Closer" is a bad song? "Arrow Through Me" is not brilliant pop/jazz/r&b? "To You" is not a step ahead of the pop/rock curve? "Spin It On" and "Old Siam Sir" are weak??? "Baby's Request" wasn't worth revisiting for Kisses On The Bottom? Not gettin' all this hate for BTTE.

BTTE, V&M, and of course BOTR are the three best Wings albums, IMHO. -

Mother77:
good choices
I noticed that you and I selected many similar songs - except the songs from Chaos and Creation in the Backyard and Off the Ground. I really like your choices from these albums as well!
