"A very obscure album for McCartney standards. Overall is good with some good tracks and some less interesting ones. I can't help to think that it would be really good if the tracklist was cut from 16 to 10 or 11 tracks. Albums got really long in the cd era and I don't think that was a good thing ..." [+] Reply
"(A bit of an odd album. When I hear it, it's as real and tangible as that pond on the desert's horizon. And when the album ends, its as gone as ... well, that damn pond.

"Rock reinvented. Great guitar-only prog rock album. Minion's song, planet of insects and interstellar are the top tracks. The latter provided the highlight of my gig-going last year (2011)" Reply
