Paul McCartney had a great idea for an album. He just needed John Pizzarelli to make it. “I got an idea in my head,” McCartney wrote to Pizzarelli in late May 2014. “It might be interesting for you and Bucky to do a few of my songs that are lesser known than some of the others. I realize this may be a little immodest, if not pushy. I imagine the songs would include post-Beatles melodies of mine like 'Love In The Open Air' (from the soundtrack to 1967 film The Family Way), 'Junk,' 'Warm And Beautiful' and, possibly, 'My Valentine.'”
