1971 - Paul and Linda McCartney - RAM

Anyone who’s come across me over the years has probably realised that I’m a bit of a Macca fan, and we’re talking Macca both with and beyond The Beatles.

My favourite Paul post-Beatles LP varies by my mood, but RAM is always in the running and here are some reasons

  • It’s the only album credited to Paul and Linda
  • It has Uncle Albert / Admiral Halsey - which I love for reasons I can’t fully explain - the butter wouldn’t melt so I put it in a pie (!?)
  • It was (apparently) released on (in the US) or just after (in the UK) my 7th birthday
  • It has those sweet films for Heart of the Country and 3 Legs
  • Back Seat of My Car

Apparently his ex-Beatle band-mates weren’t that impressed - although neither Lennon (“muzak to my ears”) or Starr (“I don’t think there’s one good tune”) ever managed to make an album this good in their post-Beatles career.
