Well, you've got to give Paul McCartney credit for having the courage of his convictions--and the heroism to occasionally fall spectacularly flat on his face pursuing them. The parallel here is Magical Mystery Tour, the half-baked 1967 Beatles TV film that was largely McCartney's conceit. Seventeen years later McCartney figured his solo star power could carry a film vehicle, and so concocted this odd caper tale about the race to find the stolen master tapes to Mac's latest solo album; suffice it to say few critics were assigned to the case. If faint praise is in order, the album is a less painful experience than the film. Still, one has to wonder what drove Mac to re-record a slate of his best Beatles tunes--along with some of his most tepid solo songs--for this misbegotten star turn. Still, ill-conceived though they may be, the performances are stellar throughout, featuring an all-star band that includes old mate Ringo and turns by guitarists Dave Edmunds, Dave Gilmour, and Chris Spedding, as well as contributions by George Martin, Steve Lukather, Jeff Porcaro, Eric Stewart, and John Paul Jones. Arguably McCartney's greatest "What was he thinking?!" project. -Jerry McCulley

3 out of 5 stars Not one of his best but definitely worth a listen.......2006-01-27

I've been a McCartney fan since I was 11... it was 1980 and I have very fond memories of that summer listening to McCartney II almost constantly. Anyway by 1984 I was way too into Ozzy and Black Sabbath to bother with a McCartney album so I just discovered this when I purchased it a few weeks ago. I've always heard what a horrible album this is but after listening to it a few times I don't understand why people have such a hatred for it. It may be that older fans don't like the idea of McCartney releasing Beatles tunes on one of his solo albums. I'm certainly a Beatles fan but being that I was born in 1969 don't have that same Betlemania view of the fabs. Anyway, back to my review... I think it's a good album that I would certainly recommend to any fan. Buy it, you won't regret it.

4 out of 5 stars Very well Orchestrated.......2005-12-11

Give my regards to Broad Street is actually a soundtrack for the movie with the same name.
McCartney uses several Beatles songs and solo songs on this album.
He puts new life into songs like, Yesterday, Here , There and Everywhere and For No One.
McCartney uses an orchestra, and much of the music is done very nicely on Violins, Cellos, and other insturments.
One song on this CD that really sounds good to me is Wanderlust.To me McCartney has always been at his best when he sounds British.
Even though this is a soundtrack dont let that scare you, you will be glad you bought it.........enjoy

4 out of 5 stars Paul At His Creative Peak.......2005-03-15

The movie isn't so good. It's easy to see that Paul was going for something that would attain a cult status ... but the movie actually doesn't have enough music or enough pacing to make that team (Rocky Horror Pic Show might be short of dreadful, but you can dance to it and it moves at a dizzying pace). But the star of this vehicle is the music ... and it is terrific. Paul re-imagines some of The Beatles stuff and seamlessly blends his own stuff in. I don't agree with one reviewer who called the solo efforts 'tepid'. In fact, these songs showcase Paul at his creative and melodic peak. 'So Bad' is a stand-out, as is his medly. The absolute best is the disco-fied version of 'No More Lonely Nights' that thrums through the end credits ... it evokes Paul with Wings in the 70s, but adds that oh-so-special 80s take on the music. The movie is worth watching to hear the music. But all things being equal, just buy this terrific soundtrack and make your own movie in your mind.

3 out of 5 stars Give My Regards to Paul.......2005-01-07

Now if you ask me, and certain folk interested in movie soundtracks do now and again, this here album is an interesting attempt at providing music for a movie. Albeit not very memorable in itself, McCartney music is memorable even when it ain't his best. In fact, the worst McCartney tune is often better than the vast majority of tunes on the market at any given time. He is, after all, one of the masters.

This here album made it up to the #21 spot and lasted there for only a week... yet another weak showing for the mid 80s. Again, as I have stated previously, this ain't necessarily a reflection of bad product as much as it is a reflection of the changing times, an aging fan base, and the evil machinations of programmers at MTV.

The one and only single from this album was "No More Lonely Nights" which has what I consider to be the most interesting base intro of any McCartney tune ever composed. You take a listen to that base line and you will hear Paul do what he should have been doing all along - improvising. This here album is chock full 'o previously released tunes done up again in new fashion, and the ones they include (the reruns that is) are all nice. I like this here album even though it didn't do a while lot in the way of sales figures.

This one bothers Junior because he is familiar with the expression "give my regards to Broadway" and the name of this album is slightly different and causes him consternation. I don't believe it will cause you no consternation unless you are looking for a string of hits... and if you are, you are better off getting a greatest hits album and being done with it.

1 out of 5 stars no regards.......2004-07-27

Paul has made some interesting works, other are not so and finally has created a few CDs really creepy. This one belongs to the last group. How come somebody recommend this work. First and foremost, there's just one song to remark "No More Lonely Nights". Second, most of the songs are covers (quite cheesy) of his'. Third, he had the nerve of making sloppy-cheesy covers of some Beatles' classics such as: "Eleanor Rigby" and "here, there and everywhere" that's unforgivable. However, there's just something to recommend, pass this CD by.

5 out of 5 stars Great CD.......2007-01-23

This is one of my favorite Paul McCartney albums.
There is a good choice of songs here.His remakes of classic Beatle songs such as Yesterday,Here There and Everywhere ,Good Day Sunshine,For No One ,Eleanor Rigby,and especially this version of The Long and Winding Road were all recorded beautifully.I usually dont like songs redone (except for live versions) cause they never quite hit the spot with me.But this is an exception to the rule.
Ringo Starr was playing drums on many of the tunes,and you get a few glimpses of his humor between songs.
There is also some remakes of some of his post Beatle days which are all excellent.This CD contains the hit No More Lonely Nights.

5 out of 5 stars Great Album.......2004-04-09

Obviously the reviewer for Amazon missed the whole point here, the album, as well as the movie are great for any Paul McCartney fan. The plot of the movie, at least to me, is irrelevant wether is good or bad; the reason I liked the movie is because I get to see Macca play his music, and the reason I like the CD is because he plays some Beatle tunes, and some new songs.

4 out of 5 stars This one is for a completist like myself........2001-12-22

I am giving this the same review as I did with the regular version of Broad Street. Some selected tracks for review:

No More Lonely Nights (Ballad)- Contains a few extra bass notes for the LP/CD. The single version is simply one of Paul's best songs ever. One of my top favorites. One of his last major hits in both the US and UK from fall of 1984. A masterpiece!

Not Such A Bad Boy- A great rocker. It is a shame Paul didn't do more new songs for the album. His vocal sounds a slight bit like Old Siam Sir.

No Values- Sounds like a later day Wings rocker. Paul states he dreamed that the Rolling Stones sang this one. Very similar to their style. This is the second instance where Paul admitted dreaming up a song. The first was the original version of Yesterday.

No More Lonely Nights (Extended Version)- This is listed as 6:56 in length, but is actually 8:10 in length. Starts with a humming sound. This is yet another remix of the ballad. To be more precise this is a remix of the playout version, which is track #14. Handclaps, drum machines, extra keyboard all make for a version with all of the bells and whistles. This could be the 8:10 extended mix which appeared on the US and UK first edition of the 12 inch singles.

No More Lonely Nights (Special Dance Mix)- This is correctly listed as 4:21 in length. More of the "kitchen sink" thrown in. The vocals on this one have more "echo" to them. This might also be known as the Arhtur Baker remix.

For the song No More Lonely Nights, there were at least 5 to 6 different versions. For my money though, the ballad version on the single is the definitve version. Direct and played well.

This album could be a good completion to your collection to compare different versions of the song. Fun in it's own way and interesting. However, not essential unless you want the remastered sound of the entire cd and all bonus tracks. I would have included a demo version of No More Lonely Nights to see where the ballad (and all other versions) originated and progressed from.

4 out of 5 stars It's a soundtrack to movie of same title, see it first........1999-03-05

THIS ALBUM HAS SOME NEAT VERSIONS OF PREVIOUS BEATLE AND WINGS SONGS. "WANDERLUST" AND "SO BAD" ARE WORTH A PEEK. IT'S A SOUNDTRACK AND THE MOVIE IS A LITTLE HOKEY BUT P. M. FANS WILL APPRECIATE IT.

4 out of 5 stars Bad Movie, Good Soundtrack.......2005-06-26

Give My Regards To Broad Street is a laughable bad movie that's not quite sure if it's a movie or a long music video. The soundtrack is a much more interesting affair. It contains a couple new songs, but what's it interesting are the reworkings of several Beatles songs and Paul McCartney solo work. In many cases (especially on the solo songs) the reworkings surpass the originals. Most notably are "Silly Love Songs", "Ballroom Dancing", "So Bad" and "The Long & Winding Road". Some of the other songs like "Yesterday", "Good Day Sunshine" and "Here, There & Everywhere" are not bad, but they don't change much from the originals. "No More Lonely Nights" in it's slowed down version is a great song (avoid the dance version).

    Album Description

    Reissue of the 1984 album. This album relies on older McCartney material from Revolver to Tug of War, with one significant touch, everything has been re-recorded. And that doesn't just mean that 'Yesterday' has a new solo McCartney version, it means that he's recut songs as recent as 'Ballroom Dancing' and Pipes of Peace's 'So Bad' and replicates the original recordings, down to the same solos. Also featured is 'No More Lonely Nights', an absolutely lovely mid-tempo tune graced by a terrific David Gilmour guitar solo. Packaged in a paper sleeve. 2005.

    5 out of 5 stars A Great Album for an Underappreciated Film.......1998-08-18

    Paul McCartney at his best performing new compositions as well as some he wrote with the Beatles. I especially enjoyed the version of Ballroom Dancing on this album. Seeing it performed on film is an extra treat. Another rare treat was Paul performing For No One, Yesterday, and Eleanor Rigby (goose bumps galor!). Of the newer material, the title track as well as Wanderlust are worth the price of the recording.

    5 out of 5 stars 'Broadstreet' is a sweet treat for Macca fans abroad.......1998-08-14

    I have must have seen this film about 1000 times. Why? two choices: Paul McCartney or his music. I myslef would have to go for both, leaning towards the music. This is a really spunky, upbeat album, even though it does have its sensitive, romantic side (which I myself prefer ;>) My top pics are "So Bad" "No More Lonely Nights" and "Not Such a Bad Boy" This is a must for any Macca fan -Kate Stocker
