vaportrailer Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Well, this one left my jaw hanging open for 5:00. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mOgDiNN2Uc He's singing the shit out of this. My god!Sounds kinda like a gospel Capt Beefheart. http://www.gloriousnoise.com/images/paul-mccartney_Screwball.jpg I LOVE that album. Electric Arguments is full of great stuff. I love that album, even though it is not technically a Paul solo album, being a Firemen album. But yes, good stuff on that one. Doesn't Paul play all the instruments, and the other guy produces it? Just found this. Fairly enlightening: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess technically it's not solo Paul.. but he's the driver on the project from what I can tell. Close enough for me :) Wish he did more things like that on his official solo albums. He throws a few things out there but nothing like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick Thanks for sharing. ;) you know me.....i will share. even if you hate what you hear :laughing guy: Mick Speaking of production... All his albums since Flaming Pie have a "sound"... Kinda compressed and almost ... humble? They don't sound big and over the top like Off the Ground or Press to Play. Not sure how to describe them. Its almost lo-fi but it's not... I'm probably making no sense. Can't put my finger on it. i see what you mean. and it works better on some albums than it does on others. i really want A Memory Almost full remaster. that's the only one i can say was master way to hot.

vaportrailer Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Listening to the catchy but questionably titled "Frozen Jap", and now the sweet strangeness of "Bogey Music"."Bogey Music" sounds like 80s Holger Czukay.And now I guess I'm going to the Darkroom...I wish that Roxy Music-esque ending went on for at least another minute.McCartney II fills my ears with delight.

vaportrailer Posted August 7, 2017 Share Posted August 7, 2017 I really enjoyed the Fireman recordings, as well as another electronica side-project called "Twin Freaks". ("McCartney II" provided a good chunk of the source material.) Love that bassline at 3:40. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driventotheedge Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 Me in 1993 not long after seeing McCartney in Atlanta on his New World Tour (wasn't there another band who had a tour named that?) ;) wearing my shirt. Wish I still had it, I have no idea what happened to it ... Georgia Dome, waaayyyy in the back. But dammit, I was there! The only Beatle I have seen live.I not only saw that tour (Anaheim), I still have that exact same shirt and it's in great shape. I'll do a selfie with it on and post it soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
