Music For Monday: Paul & Linda McCartney, ‘Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey’ (1971)

"We haven't done a bloody thing all day..." (Paul & Linda McCartney, 'Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey,' 1971)

“We haven’t done a bloody thing all day…” (Paul & Linda McCartney, ‘Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey,’ 1971)

Paul and Linda McCartney’s “Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey” hit #1 on the US “Hot 100” singles chart in September of 1971. The song (a blending of two songs, really) appears on McCartney’s second solo L.P., RAM.

The official video below is made up of home movies featuring the McCartney family at play on their farm in Scotland and in the recording studio. Keep an eye peeled for a slightly older clip around the four-minute mark with a cameo by Ringo Starr. Butter pie!
