'''''All the Best!''''' is the second official [[compilation album]] of [[Paul McCartney]]'s music, after 1978's ''[[Wings Greatest]]''. It was released in 1987 on [[Capitol Records]] and [[Parlophone Records]].
 
==BackgroundOverview==
The album contains tracks from the beginning of his solo career in 1970 up to (on editions outside the United States) the newly recorded "[[Once Upon a Long Ago]]". The American version has a different track listing, reflecting the popularity of particular songs there. Originally the album was to include the unreleased ''[[London Town (Wings album)|London Town]]'' track "Waterspout"; there are LP slicks that feature it as the opening track on side two, as well as a cartoon icon, but the song was omitted at the last minute.
 
Editions outside the United States have 20 tracks on the vinyl version and 17 on CD; the CD omits "Maybe I'm Amazed", "WithGoodnight A Little LuckTonight", and "GoodnightWith TonightA Little Luck". The American edition has 17 tracks on both vinyl and CD, and omits "Pipes of Peace", "Maybe I'm Amazed", "Once Upon A Long Ago", "We All Stand Together", and "Mull Ofof Kintyre", but adds "Junior’sJunior's Farm" and "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey". It also substitutes the studio version of "Coming Up" for aan edit of the live version, and has a shorter version of "With A Little Luck".
 
==Reception==
Issued just as McCartney was beginning work on his next studio album, ''All the Best!'' was a commercial success in the UK, where it reached number 2 (having been kept off the top position by [[George Michael]]'s debut solo album, ''[[Faith (George Michael album)|Faith]]'').<ref name="UK Albums">{{cite web |url=https://www.officialcharts.com/charts/albums-chart/19871108/7502/ |title=1987-11-14 Top 40 Official UK Albums Archive &#124;{{pipe}} Official Charts |work=[[Official Charts Company]] |access-date=7 November 2012}}</ref> In America, the compilation peaked at number 62,<ref name="US 200">{{cite webmagazine |url={{BillboardURLbyName|artist=paul mccartney|chart=Billboard 200}} |title=Paul McCartney Album & Song Chart History &#124;{{pipe}} ''Billboard'' 200 |workmagazine=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |publisher=[[Prometheus Global Media]] |access-date=7 November 2012}}</ref> although it was eventually certified double platinum there.<ref name="RIAA">{{Cite certification|region=United States|title=All the Best|type=album|access-date=7 November 2012}}</ref>
