Advantages: Great songs including 2 duets with Michael Jackson

Disadvantages: None

First I will confess to being a huge fan of Paul McCartney. I am an admirer of his music with The Beatles as well as with Wings, as Paul McCartney and in duets.

"Pipes Of Peace" is an exceptional album. It has 11 tracks of which 4 are amongst the best he has ever produced.

The 4 tracks I rate so highly are "Say, Say, Say", "The Man", "Through Our Love" and "Pipes Of Peace".

The first two of these are duets with Michael Jackson and co-written with Michael Jackson. If that isn't a pop music writing dream team then I don't know what is.

"Say, Say, Say" is quite well known and to this day (Feb 2009) still gets regular airplay on Music Television Channels. But "The Man", which I think is an extraordinarily brilliant track is little known or played on either radio or television.

"Pipes of Piece" is well known and clearly of high quality; "Through Our Love" is not so well known but in my opinion deserves some kind of anthem status as it is that good.

Paul McCartney has made many great albums and this is one of his best.

Summary: The songwriting and performances on this album are in a different league.
