I meant to chime in and say that you're not alone there. This was also my first
McCartney album, and I thought it was great (still do). I was still in the
process of discovering the Beatles and McCartney at the time, so that year
"Press To Play" loomed as large in my world as, say, "Revolver." Not to say that
I'd equate them in terms of quality, but PTP has a remarkably low ratio of
phoned-in material for McCartney. I agree about the tracks you mentioned, and
I'd also point out some other standouts like "Footprints" (which sounds like a
companion piece to "Bluebird"), "Only Love Remains," "Move Over Busker," and the
Townshend collaboration "Angry."

Oddly, I kind of lost track of Paul's stuff during the years that followed, and
I completely missed out on "Flowers In The Dirt" until several years after its
release. D'oh!
