Simple, vote for one of the following, then I'll come in and tally the votes after each day or so until the final survivor is left. Band on the Run was not included, so it's really any album's game...
McCartney Ram Wild Life Red Rose Speedway Venus and Mars Wings at the Speed of Sound London Town Back to the Egg McCartney II Tug of War Pipes of Peace Give My Regards to Broad Street Press to Play Flowers in the Dirt CHOBA B CCCP Off the Ground Flaming Pie Run Devil Run Driving Rain
I'll start by voting for Give My Regards to Broad Street, mostly due to the needless remakes of classic Beatles songs.

So you're assuming that BOTR is so good it could never be anyone's worst album of the day? There are at least two albums there that wipe the floor with BOTR.
If you're going to ask people for their prefs, don't remove an option - it looks (and IS!) patronizing.
I agree Maria, BOTR shouldn't have been removed to respect other people tastes. But seriously BOTR will win this survivor easily if it's there imo, at least that's my favorite Paul/Wings album

Thanks for the back-up, Bruno. But for me (and for many others, I know) BOTR has not worn well over time. For me, Macca's "timeless" work is Ram (although I do admit there's a couple of not-so-good ones on that album even). On Ram, Paul took risks and pulled it off well.
Alright, Band on the Run will now be included....we'll see what happens. Voting's been up for a while so Wild Life shall be removed from the bunch. Now it's time for Round Two, vote for TWO of the following to speed things up a bit.
McCartney Ram Red Rose Speedway Band on the Run Venus and Mars Wings at the Speed of Sound London Town Back to the Egg McCartney II Tug of War Pipes of Peace Give My Regards to Broad Street Press to Play Flowers in the Dirt CHOBA B CCCP Off the Ground Flaming Pie Run Devil Run Driving Rain
My vote goes to Give My Regards to Broad Street and another needless release, CHOBA B CCP.

As for me, you can kill any of these:
Off The Ground, Flaming Pie, Press to Play, Red Rose Speedway, Pipes of Peace, Tug of War, McCartney II and London Town, since I have never bothered listening to any of them (with the exception of Pie and the occasional single pulled from each). None of these were deemed worth spending the time on, IMHO.

Your killing me Chuck. I love all of those albums except for McCartney 2 (which should have easily been the first to go). Its ok if their disliked, but I deem them worthy of a few listens.
Sorry, pal. What can I say? Paul produced so much trash there was no real reason to listen after awhile (Oddly enough I do own Pipes (2 copies) and Tug...just never really felt compelled to spin them).
I actually did listen to Flaming Pie, and found it wanting. Of course, had I listened to it more than once I might have found it ok, it just didn't grab me (like, for instance, My Brave Face did, leading me further into the Flowers in the Dirt LP).
I know Tug of War is said to be good by most people I know, I only heard the singles, they were ok.
Off the Ground, Biker Likean Icon was pretty good, toherwise...
So, that's one vote for McCartney II, one from me for Give My Regards and CHOBA....and Mister Charlie voted for about everything in Paul's catalouge......I guess we'll just delete the first three I mentioned.....get votin' people! What the hey, vote for THREE this time.
McCartney Ram Red Rose Speedway Band on the Run Venus and Mars Wings at the Speed of Sound London Town Back to the Egg Tug of War Pipes of Peace Press to Play Flowers in the Dirt Off the Ground Flaming Pie Run Devil Run Driving Rain
Red Rose Speedway had a lot of filler....so did Wings at the Speed of Sound....I'll give my third vote to Press to Play, although there's some other stuff from around the same time that's equally bad.
"Only people know just how to talk to people. Only people know just how to change the world."
Bump. Get voting, people. You can vote for three choices from this list that you want to see get the boot.
McCartney Ram Red Rose Speedway Band on the Run Venus and Mars Wings at the Speed of Sound London Town Back to the Egg Tug of War Pipes of Peace Press to Play Flowers in the Dirt Off the Ground Flaming Pie Run Devil Run Driving Rain
"Only people know just how to talk to people. Only people know just how to change the world."
With two votes each, Press to Play and Pipes of Peace got the boot.
McCartney Ram Red Rose Speedway Band on the Run Venus and Mars Wings at the Speed of Sound London Town Back to the Egg Tug of War Flowers in the Dirt Off the Ground Flaming Pie Run Devil Run Driving Rain
I now vote to boot Off the Ground, Flowers in the Dirt and Driving Rain.
"Only people know just how to talk to people. Only people know just how to change the world."
Guess it's really only the three of us that play....too many folks that figure Wingspan is enough....ah well.....with two votes each, Flowers in the Dirt and Driving Rain are banished.
McCartney Ram Red Rose Speedway Band on the Run Venus and Mars Wings at the Speed of Sound London Town Back to the Egg Tug of War Off the Ground Flaming Pie Run Devil Run
My next set of votes goes to Off the Ground, Tug of War and Run Devil Run.
"Only people know just how to talk to people. Only people know just how to change the world."
