    OK I am a new reviewer and I have reviewing my top cd's of 2013 and so, I felt compelled to review one cd I did not enjoy and I am sad to say it is Paul McCartney's cd I am a huge Beatles fan and I felt so bad about how things went with that tramp one-legged, gold-digging girlfriend he had, and still, this cd came up so short for me so sorry Sir Paul!

    Solid, competent stuff, but it's difficult, but it's difficult to imagine anyone wanting to listen to this in isolation. [Dec 2011, p.89]

    Without the dance visuals, the bulk of Paul McCartney's Ocean's Kingdom stands as pleasant and moderately engaging classical music that leans heavily on already established forms.

    A little watery. [7 Oct 2011, p.75]
