As it was the first McCartney album I ever owned, I will always have a soft spot for Give My Regards to Broad Street and, yes, even the "wimpy" new arrangements of the classic Beatles songs, as that was actually the first time I'd heard a couple of them in any incarnation, like "Here, There & Everywhere."
