Kisses on the Bottom

Paul McCartney

A quiet, unplugged collection of Great American Songbook standards. McCartney trades his bass for a microphone, delivering a warm, intimate masterclass in crooning.

It's Paul singing the songs his dad loved in a quiet room with a great jazz band.

A warm, nostalgic embrace of the past that feels both intimate and timeless.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The delicate, Spanish-style guitar solo by Eric Clapton on My Valentine that provides a sharp, emotional contrast to the lush strings.
McCartney's playful, rhythmic phrasing on My Very Good Friend the Milkman that captures the lighthearted spirit of the 1930s.
The hushed, almost whispered delivery of the opening lines of Always, making the listener feel like they are in the room with the piano.
