Waterfalls

(Paul McCartney)

Paul McCartney’s 27th solo single that was released in 1980 with “Check Out My Machine” on the B-Side and reached No. 9 in the UK chart.  It has a very minimalist sound relying on just a synthesiser and vocals, both performed by Paul McCartney and was the second single released from the album McCartney II.   The picture sleeve on the 45 was a Christian Broutin painting of hands holding a waterfall that is falling over mountains and the photography was done by Linda McCartney.
