What are the best post-Beatles songs for a solo Beatles anthology ??

I'm making a compilation CD of the best solo Beatles stuff from each of them . What are the best songs from each .

If you owned everything Beatles, but only wanted the best solo Beatles songs, what tracklist would make a great 1970-2009 anthology ??

1969--1975

Give peace a chance
Instant karma
Maybe i'm amazed
My sweet lord
What is life
Love
Another day
Power to the people
It don't come easy
Uncle albert/ admiral halsey
Imagine
Happy Christmas
Back off boogaloo
My love
Give me love
Live and let die
Photograph
Mind games
Your 16
Oh my my
Band on the run
Jet
Whatever gets you through the night
#9 dream
Junior's farm
Only you
No no song
Dark horse
Listen to what the man said

[awc]

1976--1989

Silly love songs
Let em in
A dose of rock and roll
Crackerbox palace
Mull of kintyre
With a little luck
Blow away
Goodnight tonight
Coming up
{Just like} starting over
Woman
Watching the wheels
All those years ago
Wrack my brain
Ebony and ivory
Take it away
Say say say
Pipes of peace
Nobody told me
No more lonely nights
Got my mind set on you
When we was fab
Handle with care
My brave face
Cheer down

[awc]

1990--2009

Weight of the world
Hope of deliverance
Beautiful night
King of broken hearts
Any road
Never without you
Fine line
Dance tonight
Liverpool 8

Looking back over this list, I might remove,
A dose of rock and roll and Handle with care.

[Greg]

Great list my friend. Don't remove nothing.

I wouldn't put anything on the CD past 1972. The Beatles, to me, sounded less and less like the Beatles the further they got away from the breakup.

I would choose only from these albums.

1. All Things Must Pass
2. McCartney
3. Ram
4. Ringo
5. Imagine

That's about it. It was all down hill from there.

That's true. I was a bit harsh. I do like Tug of War, Flowers in the Dirt and Ringo Rama a lot. They don't sound as much like Beatles tracks as the early solo work. They are great in there own right though.

Actually, Ringo has done some pretty good albums lately.

Ringo seems to have improved or he's getting better musicians to help him out.His next record is going to have some great players on it including Paul.

Their early work was very Beatle-ish, it is a lot easier to make a Beatle's album from the solo tracks from 70 to 72- ish.
Ringo surprised everyone with Ringo Rama,and I hope his new album will be great too.

And 'Dance Tonight'. REMOVE IT! It makes 'Hope Of Deliverance' sound like 'Band On The Run'.

i thought the same thing about "dance tonight" till i heard it live. i would add "young boy".

It does sound pretty good live,and yea Jules, Young Boy is a great track, one of the best off Flaming Pie.

I've written a whole book on the subject:
'Let's Put the Beatles Together Again 1970-2010: How to Assemble & Appreciate the 2nd Half of the Beatles' Legacy'

Go to Amazon.com/books and in search box type 'Beatles 1970-2010'

Cheers

That has to be very interesting and original Mr. Walker, thank you. And we have to congratulate our friend here, Allan, who also had the idea.
