I personally love The Beatles version of Twist and Shout and especially the way John sang it.  He really rocked out on that one if you ask me!

It hurts me to hear him scream that song, he has no voice left!! I do like the song though.

"Twist and Shout" and "Money" for sheer decibels. Also "New York City," the best song on the otherwise mostly dreadful Some Time In New York City. "Come Together," "Revolution," and "Don't Let Me Down" have a lot more style, though.

Oh yes; and "Rock and Roll Music," of course.

"Wings IV introduced Jimmy McCulloch, a spunky lead guitarist with grit, able to spur Paul on unlike any previous soloist. His debut track, the magnificent single `Junior's Farm', stands as one of Wings' finest emotional and technical releases."

"Few people on this planet know as much about Jimmy's musical history than you."

I really love "Slow Down" off "Something New". Besides the great sandpaper-voice vocals, it has one of the best screams in the history of rock and roll music (just before the guitar solo). I think it might be double tracked but who cares!


I love John,
I love Paul,
And George and Ringo,
I love them all!

^^^^^^All those are great, Geoff.  But add to it "Instant Karma" from his solo years.  I think that one rocks...

I like "Yer Blues".
Thats a great song..


"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup,
They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe.
Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me."

I like Cold Turkey, one of the heaviest songs he ever wrote (Altought the screaming creeped me the first time I heard it)

I Specially love the version from "Live In New York City", and I think Move Over Ms. L is also a great rocker
