The story behind the song

"Beautiful Night" is a song that Paul McCartney had carried with him for some time, liking it but feeling he hadn't quite captured its essence in earlier recordings. It found its home on his 1997 album Flaming Pie, featuring a collaboration with Ringo Starr and orchestration by George Martin. The song plays like a heartfelt expression, finally realized after years of refinement.
