All the Best! is the second official compilation album of Paul McCartney music, after 1978's Wings Greatest, and was released in 1987. The album contains tracks from the beginning of his solo career in 1970 up to (on British and Canadian editions) the newly recorded "Once Upon a Long Ago." The track inclusion and running order varies slightly between UK and U.S. editions of All the Best! to reflect the popularity of particular songs in each country. CD and vinyl versions of the British edition also vary, as the time constraints of a single compact disc versus a double-vinyl album led to the elimination of three cuts on the British CD edition.
Released just as McCartney was beginning work on his next major studio album, All the Best! was a big success, reaching #2 in the UK (being knocked by George Michael's debut album Faith) and although it peaked at #62 in the U.S., it eventually went double platinum there.
