Album-McCartney

Album Notes

Released in 1970, a month before The Beatles' Let It Be, McCartney was Paul's first solo album and would go on to top the US charts for three weeks. Notable for the fact that McCartney performed all instruments and vocals himself, aside from some backing vocals performed by Linda, it's an album rich in improvisation and experimentation. "The McCartney album was good fun because I got a machine from EMI, only a four track, and I just had it in my living room where I lived in London at the time," McCartney remembers. "I had my little machine in there. I'd just go in for the day like Monsieur Margitte. Go in and do a little bit of stuff and make something up, and knock off in the evenings. It was very interesting to do and it had a certain kind of rawness, that album, because I was breaking loose after The Beatles, we all got a feeling of that I think. During The Beatles period I'd said to John, 'I think I should do an album called ‘Paul McCartney Goes Too Far''. He said, 'that's a great idea man, you should do it.' Of course, I never really did. It was just, 'well I'll do it one day'." In 2011, the album was remastered and reissued to include a bonus disc of outtakes, demos and live versions, as well as a DVD of documentaries and live performances.

Release Date: 17th April 1970 (UK), 20th April 1970 (USA)

Indeed very nice stuff.
@gettingcloser: Carleen did get some help by Paul - not Macca - but Paul Weller. He produced the album and played some instruments. Really love this cover version. And this is a recommendation to each and every McCartney fan.

nice music, I grew up to that LP, it's as good as Abbey Road, only simpler.

Music at its best.
Simple and genious.
The start of a career after a career that already blew the world's head offfffffffffff.
With one of the best record covers ever. At least for me.

I can put this album on and lose all sense of time and place. The tones are magic on it, when the drums come in on Junk, bass sounds on Every Night, lead guitar on Maybe I'm Amazed. Purposely as anti-Beatles as you could get and the only way he could start his solo career. Effortless.
