{edih}}}Tug of War is the third solo studio album by English musician Paul McCartney, released on 26 April 1982. It is his 11th album overall following the break up of the Beatles in 1970, his first album released after the dissolution of his band Wings the previous year, and his first album following the murder of his former songwriting partner John Lennon.McCartney: Songwriter {{ISBN|0-491-03325-7}} p. 128 The cover features an abstract oil painting by the artist Brian Clarke, a frequent McCartney collaborator, incorporating an overpainted transparency of a portrait of Paul taken by Linda McCartney.BOOK, Plassat, Francois, Paul McCartney: l'empreinte d'un géant, 2010, JBz & Cie, 978-2-75560-651-5, Paris, AV MEDIA NOTES, Tug of War, Paul McCartney, 1982, album liner notes, EMI, Tug of War was produced by former Beatles producer George Martin and was a number-one hit in many countries, selling over one million copies in the United States in the year of its release.WEB, Paul McCartney: Tug of War,weblink 16 April 2020, RIAA Certification, Recording Industry Association of America, Some critics hailed it as a 'return to form' for McCartney.

Recording

Following the release of the solo album McCartney II, McCartney's band Wings regrouped in July and October 1980 to rehearse several songs which later appeared on Tug of War and Pipes of Peace. Feeling the need for direction, McCartney called upon his former producer, George Martin,McCartney: Songwriter {{ISBN|0-491-03325-7}} p. 129 to begin recording a song written for the animated Rupert Bear character (to which McCartney acquired the film rights in 1970),NEWS, McCartney's solo efforts may bring an end to Beatles as recording group, The Bulletin - Google News Archive Search,weblink 2023-03-28, (UPI) "McCartney's solo efforts may bring an end to Beatles as recording group" The Bulletin April 7, 1970: 9 titled "We All Stand Together", among others. The productive sessions continued until 9 December, the morning McCartney woke up to discover his former songwriting partner and fellow ex-Beatle, John Lennon, had been shot and killed in New York City on the previous night. Abandoning that day's session (in which he and Denny Laine were recording future B-side "Rainclouds") part-way through, both Martin and McCartney felt it was best to leave the project for the time being and start anew once they were ready.In February 1981, two months after Lennon's death, McCartney resumed the sessions, recording that month with Stevie Wonder, Stanley Clarke, Carl Perkins and Ringo Starr, and laying down several songs in the process. The sessions were held at AIR Studios in Montserrat, in the Caribbean, and lasted from 3 February to 2 March, ending with "Ebony and Ivory" and "What's That You're Doing",The end of the Beatles? {{ISBN|978-0-876-50162-7}} p. 184 two songs featuring Stevie Wonder.Luca Perasi, Paul McCartney: Recording Sessions (1969–2013), L.I.L.Y.

The sessions were so productive that several resulting tracks were held over for McCartney's next album, Pipes of Peace, which followed in 1983. The rest of 1981 was spent in a quiet fashion, with McCartney and Martin giving the finishing touches to the album.

Robert Palmer was less enthusiastic in his review for The New York Times, and found the album "exquisitely crafted though lyrically flawed", as he thought McCartney's lyrics were often "clichéd or mawkish", but that the album "at its best, is as finely crafted as his work with the Beatles".WEB, Palmer, Robert, Robert Palmer (American writer), 25 April 1982, Music View; PAUL MCCARTNEY'S LATEST IS EXQUISITE BUT FLAWED,weblink live,weblink" title="web.archive.org/web/20140128231104weblink">weblink 28 January 2014, 31 August 2011, The New York Times, In March 1982, McCartney's duet with Stevie Wonder, "Ebony and Ivory", was released to considerable commercial success, reaching number one in many countries. Tug of War followed in April, and similarly became a worldwide number one. The follow-up single, "Take It Away", reached the top ten in the United States. The album restored McCartney's critical reputation after what was viewed as a lean period for him. Tug of War was nominated for the "Album of the Year" Grammy in 1983. Wingspan author Mark Lewisohn thought it was a better album than Band on the Run.{{Citation |title=013 – LEWISOHN |url=https://soundcloud.com/fabcast-870039074/013-lewisohn |access-date=2017-04-03 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170404044414weblink |url-status=live |language=en |archive-date=4 April 2017}}The album was issued in the US on compact disc on 29 February 1984.BOOK, The Beatles Diary After the Break-Up: 1970–2001, Music Sales Group, 2001, 9780711983076, Miles, Barry, reprint, London, Badman, Keith, In 1993, Tug of War was remastered and re-issued on CD as part of The Paul McCartney Collection series.
