McCartney Times

Could Sir Paul McCartney be considered a genius? Whether it be his pioneering work with The Beatles, the countless creations as a solo artist, or the fact that he had the ability to simply dream up astonishing hit songs, McCartney’s vast and unrelenting impact on popular culture as we know knows no bounds.

Although I’m not a royalist (how could I be, I’m Irish!), if anyone has proven worthy of their title, it is the fab bassist himself. Indeed, the bass playing on Revolver alone earned him that knighthood, lest we forget the gorgeous melodies he crafted for ‘For No One’, ‘Here, There and Everywhere’, and ‘Got to Get You into My Life’. And then there’s the small matter of Ram, McCartney’s second solo album, and arguably his richest in sound.

The album celebrates melody, from the whimsy of ‘Ram On’ to the turbocharged rockabilly heard in ‘Smile Away’. It’s McCartney’s most expansive work, continuing the narrative of Abbey Road and Sgt.Pepper to its next logical thread. And it just might be his finest work as a solo artist.
