Taking a fresh approach to things, Paul wrote, performed, and produced the avantgarde masterpiecenbspMcCartney II, which reached Number One in the UK, and Number 3 in the US, producing such classics as ldquoComing Up,rdquo ldquoWaterfalls,rdquo and ldquoTemporary Secretary.rdquoWithnbspMcCartney IIInbspPaul went back to basics again to create some of his most revealing work to date.

An intimate and loose record featuring ldquoFind My Wayrdquo and the now live favorite ldquoWomen and Wives,rdquonbspMcCartney IIInbspfeatures Paulrsquos melodic gift at its forefront throughout.
