Is there still different album versions?? I Know only the 1970 version.

Another was Live and Remastered Versions.

The version that came from Wings Over America was released as a single if I'm correct.

Right, Ovi.

Right, Cor.  I like that version too, but I like the one on the McCartney album better.  That's what I meant by "McCartney version." 

There's a live version of Coming Up too, but I like the studio version on the McCartney II album better.  It's fun and quirky.

Not really sad Cor, Im just pretending  ;D

but Im sure Todd chose those obscure titles just to wind me up, he's probably already chosen which picture of Paul should go on the cover , oh to hell with it, lets just use the picture from McCartney II  ha2ha

It seems that there was actually an "official" solo Beatles album in the mid-70's, though the track-listing was quite curious:

At least he can take comfort in knowing that his one song is superior to any of the other ones listed on that joke of an album.
