Amazon.com essential recording:
Paul's very first solo outing is very much a homegrown affair with him singing and playing everything (apart from a few harmonies by Linda). The expectations were high, and while not everything clicked, there was enough good stuff for the legend to continue. 'That Would Be Something,' 'Man We Was Lonely,' 'The Lovely Linda,' and 'Teddy Boy' all make the grade, but everything is eclipsed by 'Maybe I'm Amazed,' which remains one of his most enduring songs, up there with anything the Beatles released (and which would have sounded quite at home on Let It Be). --Chris Nickson



Customer Reviews
User popularity level: out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Post Beatle
"Maybe I'm Amazed", "That Would Be Something" and "Every Night" validate the cost of the CD alone. However, for those who have an interest in the growth and maturing of an iconic musician McCartney is a must have. The rawness of the production and individuality of this one man show (with the exception of Linda's vocals) perhaps was what Paul needed to continue musically post-Beatles.

For you younger listeners, with no interest in the growth of Paul's talent, get the three tracks at the very least.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Break-up
This was the album that broke the Beatles up. A true solo album.Some of the songs were being rehearsed in the studio for an upcoming Beatles album titled"Let It Be" . Think John was psst for a reason? The rest is all history now. Yoko didn't break up the Beatles ,Yoko and Linda did. Just listen for yourself.Good music although he could have made it better by having another drummer, maybe a couple of guitarists and some background vocalists. HMMMMM


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Macca's 1st Solo Album
Still by far Paul's best and very first solo release with Linda McCartney. A must have for the Macca Collector!


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - McCartney fresh from the Beatles
So much talent in this recording. Coming shortly after the Beatles breakup, this recording showcases what Paul had written for himself. The album crescendos to "Maybe I'm Amazed", which is......amazing!


Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent simple pleasure - brings back memories of simpler times
Great minimalistic approach from paul - fun disc with great memories attached for me - the measure of music for most people!

I enjoyed this solo album for its simple pleasures - has some nice stuff on it and is refreshingly minimalistic in its approach to some classic writing by paul. it sort of balances "Band on the Run" and "Venus and Mars" type studio productions. I think of it as a close and personal type statement about paul's more happy and free time in his professional and personal lives! these moments come infrequently to us all and i am happy paul captured this time-capsule of his life for us to share and remember moments like these we all cherish! nothing simpler and sweeter than a bowl full of cherries that are so happy they jump out of the bowl and all over the table in celebratory jubilant dance of joy! ;-) can't wait for the subsequent bout of this type of simple pleasure-cycle to come round again! hope the same for y'all!
