Product Description
“Listen To What The Man Said” is the first major tribute to Paul McCartney’s post-Beatles work since their break-up over 30 years ago.
This project represents a two year labor of love for the producers and for all of the artists and contributors involved. The artists that make up this tribute were chosen after conducting an anonymous poll of Beatles and McCartney fans who were asked to submit a list of their top 15 choices. Over 1,000 responses in just 2 days were received. All of the artists that participated in the project donated their services and 100% of their artists royalties will be given to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Research Foundation in memory of Linda McCartney.

4 stars for just ONE song!.......2006-09-27
This cd has one, and only one, worthwhile remake. "Maybe I'm Amazed" will knock you back, make you hit the "repeat" button, and probably cause you to search the internet for who in the world the "Virgos" are/is. If you can be happy with being treated to just one awesome, notched-up, tastefully raging version of an otherwise classic McCartney song, then buy this cd.
Other than this one song, hey, call me a non-McCartney buff, but I only recognized Band On The Run, Jet and Coming Up. These were all yawner-remakes. I had hopes that someone would improve on McCartney's unmelodic "woohoowoohoo" in Jet, but nope!
Was there a budget crunch, or what's up with this track listing? Where is Let 'Em In, Junior's Farm, Uncle Albert, Another Day, Live And Let Die, Silly Little Love Songs, My Love, Hi Hi Hi, Helen Wheels...?????
If you can snatch this one for a low price, and you dream of what "Maybe I'm Amazed" would sound like in a stepped-up, fiery pace, with some screams that will make your salt & pepper hair stand up, buy it!
