For this episode, we asked our listeners on Facebook to tell us a song that "defines" Paul McCartney as an artist, performer, musician, etc., and give their reasons why. In this episode, hear the selections along with commentary from listeners and Dave and Chris. There are many familiar choices, but there are a few more obscure tunes that present another side that "defines" McCartney.
