Paul McCartney & Wings - Red Rose Speedway (1973)Following on from the success of our New Years special in 2018, here is another album as a New Year treat for you to review and vote upon. The album chosen was released on 7th December 2018, and is a reissue of Red Rose Speedway originally released in 1973. Classic Rock wrote 'Red Rose Speedway was supposed to be a double album, something indicative of a band at the peak of its powers. Instead, Wings disintegrated not long after, as both drummer Denny Seiwell and guitarist Henry McCullough left. It was as shocking as the resulting studio effort was uneven.'

Band on the Run it isn't. Classic Rock got it right calling it uneven. The songs try hard but the whole is not very cohesive. Never mind, they peaked with their next album for sure. A generous 3/5.

There were some fantastic albums released in 1973 and this ain't one of them , McCartney's ears must have been burning because he got his act together quick and released Band on the Run later in the year .

Yesterday wouldn't play. Today it does

A generous "three" and that's mostly because of the guitar playing on "My Love," which I've always liked. To much Moon-June production-line pop pap for me.

I really wanted to give this album a fair go but it's just not that good is it? Not at all offensive but too much sentimental fluff.
2/5
