This is part of a series of mini-reviews of Paul McCartney’s studio albums, ranked worst to best. (Don’t worry; I’ll keep them short.)
Next in line: Egypt Station.
WHY IT’S GOOD: Solid songs, produced by Greg Kurstin (who did Adele and others). Some of his best tunes.
BEST SONGS: I Don’t Know is a gorgeous, emotionally direct piano ballad. Happy With You is how much better he feels with his current love, who would be Nancy. Dominoes is an excellent catchy rock tune. Back In Brazil throws in some electronic salsa.
WORST SONGS: Fuh You, produced by Ryan Tedder, is just kind of dumb even though I like it. People Want Peace is a rehash of songs he’s done before, but it still gets the message across.
WHY YOU SHOULD TRY IT: All the songs are good to great. See my review: https://the-avocado.org/2018/10/20/album-spotlight-paul-mccartney-egypt-station/
