Kisses


On his album
“Kisses on the Bottom”
Paul McCartney
takes a casual stroll
down Tin Pan Alley.

Classic songbook fare,
the core of countless jazz albums,
McCartney’s stab at the nostalgia market,
framed as a Valentine’s Day gift
to his new wife, Nancy.

A late career roll,
this slow dance with the misty past.
A let-down.
These songs are meant to swing;
McCartney lets them plod.

Sometimes you need to know when to quit.

Mingle with celebrities.
Chat with filmmakers.

Florida Film Festival:
The best cinema.

Non-stop fun.
