[edit] Cleanup

Looks like this page could do with a bit of proofreading. I'd do it myself if I had a bit more time. mh. 22:02, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

I've had a quick read through and corrected the more obvious mistakes and made it a bit more readable. The article probably does need some expanding, as well as critical context, especially considering that it is often highligted as being an obvious examples of Mccartney's fascination with the twee and general poor output since the Beatle's split up (whether this is warranted or not is another matter).

WHAATTTT!!!!!!!!!!! I not to be speak very well English, but: why you edit it? El Manu!!! 21:19 17 June 2006

I think there is a major flaw in this article. To the best of my knowledge, There has never been a Paul McCartney album officially released with the title "Rupert and The Frog Song". The tracklisting shown is from a bootleg cd of sessions which were recording in the late 70's for an unfinished McCartney album of a different Rupert Story. The picture appears to be from one of the Pickwick audio books of Rupert and the Frog Song, which is not part of the McCartney cannon, and only includes one McCartney song, "We All Stand Together".

Looking more carefully at the image, it is from the Pioneer Laserdisc, still not convinced there is an offical soundtrack for this film. McGonicle 12:34, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
