Hit

Sir Paul has a pretty spectacular PBS Storytellers show going right now. Sir Paul has traveled the fine line between sometimes brilliant, sometimes terrible, and mostly average for a long time. But some of these tunes I'm hearing tonight? The man has hit a high point. It's pretty great to see that the well continues to run deep and wide. Some unfreakinbelievable new songs, some unfreakinbelievable playing.

I've been known to say it's a young man's game as a way to make myself feel better about not playing these days. Sir Paul has dispelled the myth. Maybe it's mostly a young man's game, but, apparently, not always.

Agreed. Except for that duet with the Linkin Park guy at the Grammy Awards, it's hard to argue with Sir Paul lately.

I didn't see that one, but in general, I don't really want to fill the world with silly love songs, but his new stuff doesn't seem to be in that direction...he's in that 1966-1968 groove right now, which is really pretty cool since it's, you know, not 1966.
