3.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (24 customer reviews)

McCartney
4.  McCartney by Paul McCartney
The list author says:

4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (22 customer reviews)

Flowers In The Dirt
5.  Flowers In The Dirt by Paul McCartney

Wingspan: Hits and History
6.  Wingspan: Hits and History by Paul McCartney

4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (26 customer reviews)

Band On The Run (2 bonus tracks)
7.  Band On The Run (2 bonus tracks) by Paul McCartney

Listen to What the Man Said: Popular Artists Tribute to Paul McCartney

Tug Of War
9.  Tug Of War by Paul McCartney

Wings Wild Life
10.  Wings Wild Life by Paul McCartney

Rushes
11.  Rushes by Fireman

Ram
12.  Ram by Paul McCartney
