Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally conceived as an expansive double album, the project was ultimately condensed down to a single disc by the label, resulting in a more commercially digestible pop-rock presentation. It features the massive hit 'My Love', marking a critical and commercial rebound for McCartney's post-Beatles career.
