Search - :: Family Way

The soundtrack to the film 'The Family Way', with music composed by Paul McCartney & performed in part by the George Martin Orchestra. While on a break between 'Revolver' & 'Sgt. Pepper' in late 1966, & with touring now out of the question & John Lennon off making the film 'How I Won the War', Paul McCartney tried his hand at a film score with a lot of help from Beatles arranger/producer George Martin. The rather pleasing result is one of the most elusive souvenirs of the Beatles' high tide in the '60s, long out of print, & commanding sky-high prices on the collectors' circuit. Only 24 minutes in length, the album is a collection of film cues based on a single McCartney tune, 'Love in the Open Air'. XXI-21 Records.
