Who did the best work as himself, or with his annoying spouse?  ;D

George. "All Things Must Pass' his 1971 album of material he wrote while a Beatle (John and Paul supressed him IMO, they saw him as a threat) far surpasses anything John or Paul accomplished on their own, although some Wings songs are good, most are trite pop. John didn't do much, but "Double Fantasy" shows that he was on his way back to real creativity when that crazy pregnant cat shot him...George's work with "The Traveling Wilburys" gave his afforts validity well ino the 90's. Paul hasn't really done any new composition since the 70's, a tragedy as he is one of the most gifted song composers of the 20th Century and of all time. Maybe he will get his groove back...

You don't think Plastic Ono Band and Imagine were terrific albums?   Because I do.
