Nov 15, 2018Paul lost his mojo and his best sidemen decades ago. George Martin would have no doubt consigned these poorly written, over produced demos to the rubbish bin.

Aug 27, 2021This album is improper of Paul. It's really bored. I think it's one of his worst works.

Sep 17, 2018Thankfully, McCartney appears to be grasping the nettle and squeezing the most out of life and his apparently never-ending songbook. A definite thumbs up.

Sep 13, 2018Sure, the lyrical content on Egypt Station isn't necessarily a work of pure genius, but it's pure Paul and that means a great deal.

Sep 11, 2018While the loping acoustic guitar figure that drives “Happy With You” isn't nearly as compositionally compelling, it's one of the only other songs here in which it sounds like McCartney is actually singing about something real. ... There are a few other tonally comparable songs on the 16-track Egypt Station, but the rest are largely bogged down in some eye-rolling cliché of one kind or another.
