Junior's Farm

Faul and his group Wings released a song called "Junior's Farm" in October, 1974.  He recorded the song in July, 1974 in Nashville, TN.

The story was that Faul stayed at Curly Putman Jr's farm, (Putman was a Nashville songwriter), during Wings recording of the song and that that was the reason the song got its name.

OR,  it could be Faul was referencing the farm he acquired from our Paul after Paul was replaced in 1966. 

As I said in the "Albert Goldman's Clues of 1968, Part 1" post [July 24, 2017], Faul was, of course, aware that Paul was much younger than him:  from my research and calculations by about nine years.  Our Paul was very much Faul's junior (and also the youngest member ever in The Beatles.)

Faul and his family liked to go and "lay low' at the Scottish farm that our Paul had just before he "left" the group, so I think Faul may have been thinking about Paul when he wrote "Junior's Farm".
