Music Review: Paul McCartney - Kisses on the Bottom

It was only a matter of time before Paul McCartney would release an album of standards. After all, this is the man who wrote such throwback tunes as "Your Mother Should Know," "When I'm Sixty-Four," "Honey Pie," "You Gave Me the Answer," and the lesser-known "A Room with a View." In various interviews, McCartney has also cited his love of Tin Pan Alley, Cole Porter, and Fred Astaire, who performed so many classic and iconic tracks.
