THE PAUL MCCARTNEY COLLECTION.
TUG OF WAR is the third solo studio album by English musician Paul McCartney, released on 26th April 1982. It is his 11th album overall following the break up of The Beatles in 1970, his first album released after the dissolution of his band Wings the previous year, and his first album following the murder of his former songwriting partner John Lennon. The cover features an abstract oil painting by the artist Brian Clarke, a frequent McCartney collaborator, incorporating an overpainted transparency of a portrait of Paul taken by Linda McCartney. TUG OF WAR was produced by former Beatles producer George Martin and was a number-one hit in many countries, selling over one million copies in the United States in the year of its release. Some critics hailed it as a ''return to form'' for McCartney. The album was issued in the US on compact disc on 29th February 1984. In 1993, TUG OF WAR was remastered and re-issued on CD as part of The Paul McCartney Collection series. In 1997, TUG OF WAR was remastered and re-released.

TUG OF WAR is, in many ways, the very first Paul McCartney solo album, a record recorded not at home but in a studio, a record made without Wings and not co-credited to Linda, who nevertheless is present as a backing vocalist. McCartney recognized this album as something of a major opportunity, so he revived his relationship with Beatles producer George Martin and brought in several heavy-hitters as guests, including his hero Carl Perkins, his Motown counterpart Stevie Wonder, fusion star Stanley Clarke, prog rock refugees Eric Stewart and Andy Mackay, and his old bandmate Ringo Starr, whose presence was overshadowed by "Here Today", an elegy written for the murdered John Lennon. Tucked away at the end of the first side, "Here Today" is bittersweet and small when compared to all the show pieces elbowing each other for attention throughout TUG OF WAR: the grave march of the title track, the vaudevillian "Ballroom Dancing", the stately drama of "Wanderlust" and sincere schmaltz of "Ebony And Ivory", the Stevie Wonder duet that helped turn this album into the blockbuster it was intended to be. As good as some of these numbers are much of the charm of TUG OF WAR lies in the excess around the edges, whether it's the rockabilly lark of the Perkins duet "Get It", the later-period Beatles whimsy of ''The Pound Is Sinking", the electro-throwaway "Dress Me Up As A Robber", or the long, electro-funk workout of "What's That You're Doing?", a track that's a fuller collaboration between Paul and Stevie than "Ebony And Ivory". Such crowd-pleasing genre-hopping finds its apotheosis on "Take It Away", a salute to eager performers and the crowds who love them, which means it summarizes not only the appeal of TUG OF WAR in general, but McCartney in general.
