Super.
However, the Long and Winding (at least as on the CD) bites.

>Well, Certainly NOT prog but my wife and I were stunned at how excellent Paul McCartney was last night at Phillips Arena. After enduring 25+ minutes of this absolutely terrible DJ/remix-master, Paul's band hit the stage opening with Magical Mystery Tour, and essentially "letting-it-rip" for 2+ hours. Highlights for me were: The Long and Winding Road, Elenor Rigby, Live and Let Die, BlackBird, and a medley that included a portion of Hendrix's Foxy Lady with Paul doing a pretty decent guitar solo on a Gibson Les Paul!!!!. Song from his new CD were really nice too. I
was particularly impressed with how well the Wings material sounded. Those songs really ROCKED. For being 63 years old, Paul's voice was in EXCELLENT shape. He hit every note spot-on. (well, there may have been one or two notes that were stretched, but otherwise his singing was wonderful). All-in-all, we had a fantastic time. Even though it was touted as being sold-out, I saw many empty seats.........Harold
