Paul McCartney recording McCartney II in his farm, Scotland, July-August 1979.

“After the release of what turned out to be Wings' final album, Back to the Egg, McCartney went north to his farm in Scotland to begin some private recordings in July 1979. The first song he recorded was "Check My Machine" as a way to test the equipment, hence its title. By sessions' end, he had recorded over 20 songs. With no immediate use for the recordings, he put them aside for the time being and returned to work with Wings to prepare for a UK tour.” - GLCompany in Beatles and Solo Photos Forum

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PAUL MCCARTNEY BORN: JUNE 18, 1942 “I don’t take me seriously. If we get some giggles, I don’t mind.”

Quitting his job to commit to the band aka explicitly picking John over his father (@adriansfrombrooklyn)

Writing "Here, There, and Everywhere" by John's pool while waiting for him to wake up and write with him alone in his attic (@aint-that-kind-of-blog-bruv)

Taking the one photo of him and john from that night with the cursed pictures with jane and then blowing it up and hanging it in his office at apple (@pauls1967moustache)

The time he vaulted over a table because another man was touching John and Paul had to physically intervene (@scurator)
