Who produced Paul McCartney's 1982 album 'Tug of War'?

Paul McCartney's 1982 album Tug of War was produced by George Martin. Martin had produced the Beatles throughout much of their recording career, so his return gave McCartney's first major post-Wings project a strong connection to his past.

Recording began after Wings had effectively dissolved, with sessions taking place at AIR Studios in Montserrat and London. The album also brought McCartney together with Stevie Wonder, Carl Perkins, Stanley Clarke and Ringo Starr. Martin helped shape the polished arrangements, including the orchestral character heard across several tracks.

Tug of War followed McCartney's difficult period after John Lennon's murder and became a major international success. It reached number one in several countries and was later nominated for the Grammy Award for Album of the Year. A common mix-up is confusing Martin's role on Tug of War with producer duties on later McCartney releases; he also produced its 1983 follow-up, Pipes of Peace.
