Released in 1982, Tug Of War was Paul McCartney’s first solo album after Wings’ split was confirmed, and followed the death of John Lennon, whose memory is poignantly evoked on the track Here Today.

 

The album saw him reunite with producer George Martin and included two duets with Stevie Wonder. Upon its release, Tug Of War was nominated for the 1983 Grammy for Album of the Year.

 

Limited SHM-CD using the 2015 remaster. Includes inner-sleeve and the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics.
