#202 - Paul McCartney - McCartney

This is kind of the opposite to the opulent Harrison album, 13 songs, out of which only a handful are complete songs, the rest are fragments or just short ideas sounding quickly recorded. You can distinctly hear that an ex-Beatle wrote these songs, the sound shines through some of them, but the quality mostly lacks. Even "Maybe I'm amazed", supposedly one of the best songs of McCartney, can't really click with me, something's missing. Maybe the influence of those 3 other guys. The album seems less like an actual album and more like a "I'm here, too" statement. If this was a debut album by an unknown artist, it would have never seen the light of day.
