So when McCartney releases a song, with Rupert the Bear in the video, it ticked all the boxes for me as a 6 year old.
My next single was "You can call me Al", so I think my musical tastes were evolving.
I didn't buy any albums apart from "Now that's what I call". My first proper album was when I started at Uni, and I was back to basics with a vinyl copy of Revolver under my arm as I moved into digs. I gave that to a girl I fancied during a house party, it served it's purpose.
