Album Notes & Community Reviews

Featuring vocal contributions from Paul and Linda McCartney, this record stands as one of the English songwriter's most commercially accessible yet structurally ambitious works. It balances sweeping, orchestral folk epics鈥攎ost notably the side-long suite 'One of Those Days in England'鈥攚ith intimate acoustic storytelling. Its original release was marred by a bizarre legal dispute over lyrics mentioning a popular candy, resulting in copies being pulled from shelves.
