"
Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" is a song by
Paul and
Linda McCartney from the album
Ram. Released in the United States as a single on 2 August 1971, but premiering on
WLS the previous week (as a "Hit Parade Bound" (HPB)), it reached number one on the
Billboard Hot 100 on 4 September 1971, making it the first of a string of post-Beatles, McCartney-penned singles to top the US pop chart during the 1970s and 1980s.
Billboard ranked it number 22 on its Top Pop Singles of 1971 year-end chart.
