Line 51:
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'' 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", "With A Little Luck" and "Goodnight Tonight". The American edition has 17 tracks on both vinyl and CD, and omits “Pipes"Pipes of Peace”Peace", “Maybe"Maybe I’mI'm Amazed”Amazed", “Once"Once Upon A Long Ago”Ago", “We"We All Stand Together”Together", and “Mull"Mull Of Kintyre”Kintyre", but adds “Junior’s"Junior’s Farm”Farm" and “Uncle"Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey”Halsey". It also substitutes the studio version of “Coming"Coming Up”Up" for a live version, and has a shorter version of “With"With A Little Luck”Luck".
 
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=http://www.officialcharts.com/archive-chart/_/3/1987-11-14/ |title=1987-11-14 Top 40 Official UK Albums Archive &#124; Official Charts |work=[[Official Charts Company]] |accessdate=7 November 2012}}</ref> In America, the compilation peaked at number 62,<ref name="US 200">{{cite web |url={{BillboardURLbyName|artist=paul mccartney|chart=Billboard 200}} |title=Paul McCartney Album & Song Chart History &#124; ''Billboard'' 200 |work=[[Billboard (magazine)|Billboard]] |publisher=[[Prometheus Global Media]] |accessdate=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|accessdate=7 November 2012}}</ref>
