I paid for Paul McCartney's Memory Almost Full. Why? Because every time I walked into Starbucks I was accosted by that "Ever Present Past"'s ididadoodah and it sounded good. So, yeah, I'm a little P.O.ed that the folks in London will able to pick up the May 18th edition of the Mail On Sunday, a UK version of The New York Post, and whip out the album for FREE . McCartney is notorious for being a bad-tipper, so the fact he's giving away the album for free is WAAAAAAY surpris... MORE

I think of everything to be discovered
I hope there's something to find
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last

Tough to quantify Paul McCartney after all these years. Cultural institution? Still-vital artist? Rich has-been? Puerile, sometimes infantile romantic? The Cute Beatle? I guess he’s a bit of each, but there’s no denying his effortless way with a melody, his rock ‘n’ roll cred, and his usually reliable pop instincts. As a singer, musician and composer, McCartney was always the most prolific, eclectic ex-Beatle; and, with the deaths of his bandmates John Lennon and George ... MORE

I've been thinking about getting the new McCartney album, so I've been thinking a lot about Paul. If, as many of us believe, the female population can be divided by which Beatle they favored, I'm a George. But Paul is and has always has been ... well, Paul. Adorable and winsome. I never saw the Beatles live, but in '76, I saw Wings at Nassau Coliseum. I was pretty blasé about it (I tagged along with emscee, who had rock-critic tickets.). "Sure, I'll go," said I, "th... MORE

The first few seconds of Paul McCartney's upcoming single "Ever Present Past" brought to mind the opening to The Bob Crewe Generation's "Music To Watch Girls By". Very sixties. Paul always has cool song titles from "Helter Skelter" and "Fool On The Hill" to in your face titles like "Why Don't We Do It In The Road" and "Here Today". They're almost always poetic in title alone.
Of interesting note, his latest single is distributed by Concord i... MORE
