"One of the funnest, and least emotionally draining post-beatles albums, and one I would most likely recommend to anyone wishing to explore the Beatles solo work for the first time. I personally think it's McCartney's best solo album, though it is technically a wings album without the title or credits; but it doesn't beat George's All Things Must Pass or The Plastic Ono Band album. That doesn't mean it isn't worth listening to. Many of these songs would have fit perfectly on a theoretical 70's Beatles album. Also, if you're a fan of McCartney's primal yelling, Monkberry Moon Delight probably serves as his greatest showcase of such talents. Most would agree that Uncle Albert is the best song; but my personal favorite is Too Many People, which is actually one of my favorite songs Paul McCartney ever wrote!"

"Along with Band on the Run, Paul's finest solo outing. Actually, I think it's slightly better than the 1973 album. Macca is at his best here, creating the sort of effortless pop music that he churned out with The Beatles. Some daft lyrics, but I don't go to McCartney for lyrics, but melody and musicianship. Ram delivers in spades, and is a joy from front to back."
