Nice one, thanks Richard

Driftwood on DEcca?

Canadian band (hey, it's my country after all) The Nines have quite a few McCartney-esque tracks. Unfortunately, off the top of my head I can't think of which ones...
I shall delve deeper tomorrow morning and get back to you with suggestions.

Also, speaking of "off the top of my head", I've always found XTC can nail a good Macca-vibe (of course, being the 80's Beatles and all). 'Brainiac's Daughter'- yeah, from that alter-ego band, and 'I'd Like That' from Apple Venus fit the bill nicely I think.

What about the Sleepy Hollow album?Not heard it in a long time,but i do remember at the time thinking thats kinda Beatles like.Another that springs to mind is some of We All Together material.I cant think of any titles from those albums.....but just a couple of suggestions,but 2 albums that are pretty good.Whether you find them Macca like i don't know.

Yes Mark the Nines a very good powerpop band and the singer does have a macca sound to his voice

Thanks everyone, all good suggestions I think.

How about the Tony Hazzard song "Paul McCartney"? And along with the Aerovons already mentioned, the Tom Hartman b-side "A Little More" is very McCartney sounding.

Thanks Joe, great suggestions

Sounds like a fun compilation, Paul!

Hey Paul, I thought of a few more that could maybe work. Some of these are more Macca-esque than others but I'll let you be the judge:

The Flame - Lady
The Flame - Don't Worry Bill
The Flame - Highs and Lows
The Flame - Dove
The Flame - Another Day Like Heaven
The Tremeloes - I Swear
The Tremeloes - By The Way
The Tremeloes - Me and My Life
Colours - Helping You Out
Colours - Where Is She?
Colours - I Think of Here (She's On My Mind)
Grapefruit - Lullaby
Octopus - I Say
Rainbow Ffolly - Goodbye
The Twilights - Bessamae
Tranquility - Thank You
Savage Grace - Turn Your Head
Klaatu - Sub Rosa Subway
Vaughan Thomas - Woman in the West
Vaughan Thomas - We Are The People

Some people might find the Hudson Brothers a bit cheesy(their TV show certainly was) but they could really write catchy Beatlesque pop songs:

Hudson Brothers - Spinning The Wheel
Hudson Brothers - Oh Gabriel
Hudson Brothers - Isn't It Lovely
Hudson Brothers - So You Are A Star
Hudson Brothers - With Somebody Else

Hope that helps!

Thanks very much Richard, I will certainly check all those out. Good old Klattu, completely forgot about them. Much obliged

Paul

Two tracks from Yellowstone and Voice's 1971 album on Regal Zonophone: 'Lonely Man and 'Thinking about you and me'. In fact the whole album is very Macca.

Thanks very much, I haven't listened to that album in years, must look it up again.
