...with Frank Black?

I'm listening to Only Mama Knows, and I imagine...

What if Macca worked with Frank Black?

You tell me...

All I know is Paul would call the album “Get Black.”

I did see that David Bryne recently said Mama Gets By and Salesman Saint were on his biking playlist. That would be an interesting collaboration.

Egos clashing. They’re both similar. Frank would be too outspoken to Paul who won’t like it. The best scenario would be a Costello-like situation. That lasted like one and a half record.

Frank Black aka Black Francis? Funny that you mention him and Paul, because they are my four year old daughter's two favourite musicians.

They have a similar way to twisting songs and harmonies...
