Greetings fellow Paul bearers and welcome to the first of two instalments that explore the 1983 album by Paul McCartney, 'Tug of War'. This is a big album, and as you can see, it's going to be an equally large episode.

In this episode we cover...

• The assassination of John Lennon.
• The "break up" of Wings.
• The Denny Laine Incident. 
• The recording of the album, including working with Stevie Wonder & Carl Perkins.
• The album artwork.
• The critical reception.
• ....and I will try not to give my opinions away too early.

This one, as many as you know, has taken a loooong time to come out, but I hope the wait was worth it! Please enjoy....
