Ok...I'll admit I'm a lifelong fan of Macca's output. Biased though I am, I will point to his mistakes, his halfhearted albums and indulgences. (and even when Macca gets it wrong he is never less than listenable - he is incapable of writing a boring tune) but this album - wow! He packs everything in here - soaring melodies, riffs to die for, bass lines heaven sent, and you know what - it's easily one of the most enjoyable albums of the year.
All this, plus Youth's production input give this album the rough around the edges quality of Macca's early solo work, but with the added benefit of keeping the whimsy to a minimum.
By turns frothy, rocky, spaced out, with more than a touch of the blues - this is wholly glorious !

i,d heard through the grapevine that this album was astounding, i read the reviews on amazon 1st,people seemed to be happy with it.so i thought i,d take a risk.got to say i would agree that its the most consistant album since band on the run.theres some modern beats,lots of enchantment.lovely melodies,it really works.i,m on my 10th listen in 3 days,i dont remember the last time i liked an album so much and i do have a good few thousand.Paul,you,ll soon have your missing millions back at this rate

Much as others who have already reviewed this album, I am a longtime Paul McCartney afficionado (you could say he's a Lifelong Passion of mine, in fact). I also have the first two Fireman albums in addition to his entire back catalogue.
This album is pretty far removed from his previous Fireman releases. It sounds a bit like the sounds he produced on Twin Freaks, which was remixes of some of his songs. Although there were some vocal sounds in parts of Rushes, this is the first Fireman release to include sung vocals. These are delivered in time to some really funky beats, much as you'd expect to hear in an achingly hip bar or club, and I am confident that this album will actually be played in such premises in the immediate future.
Despite his successes and the adulation and critical acclaim he has received throughout his career, McCartney is very insecure. He has said himself he feels more able to kick back and goof around and noodle with these Fireman projects and so this is Paul McCartney being relaxed, free and himself. Not that his other releases are not true to himself, but he has long been pigeonholed as some soppy balladeer and as such a one trick pony but of late, most notably and recently with Electric Arguments, he has proved this to be anything but the truth.
A highly recommended album which is getting a lot of positive feedback from all quarters, and one I'd recommend to any fans of Paul McCartney, and of ambient and dance music per se.

Good
Better than anything McCartney has produced elsewhere in the last 10 years (maybe Ecce Cormeum was pretty good) but why his fifty odd band mate still retains the name... Read more

Very good product
Paul McCartney's music in a amazing new way, it is like an other musician but nevertheless always his voice. Wonderfull work!

Something Else
The thoroughly splendid aspect to McCartney's post-Beatles career lies in its relative inessential nature. Read more

Not really a Fireman Album
This is more of a McCartney album with a bit of Fireman thrown in.
Good though it is, it's not what I was expecting, hence the low rating!!

Belated and welcome Beatles follow-up
Band on the Run is said to be the best post-Beatle Macca album and I guess it still is, but Electric Arguments is the only Macca solo album that really seems to build on the days... Read more

McCartney once threatened to write songs about Heather Mills and the divorce.Fortunately he didn't apart from the one which opens up this new album -Nothing's too much. Read more

Another classic!
This is another classic from this most supremely gifted muso. A fan of his since I first heard Michelle as a youngster in 1966, McCartney never fails to please. Read more

McCartney - It's All Good
Paul McCartney has always had the ability to create tunes which embed themselves in your brain. Often they are 'growers' too. The first time you hear one, you think 'Hmm ... Read more

Have had this album on a loop on my iPod since it came out a couple of months ago. Whilst there's no doubt that 'Memory Almost Full' was a fine album, it was a slight... Read more
