Chaos And Creation In The Backyard
3.  Chaos And Creation In The Backyard by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "This is deep, and the lyrics are excellent. For the third time Paul plays every instrument. This is on the whole a very introspective and quiet album containg many wonderful melodies."
£4.99   Used & New from: £0.70
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (53 customer reviews)

Flaming Pie
4.  Flaming Pie by Paul McCartney

  "This, like tug of war is a great all-round album. It contains loads of great hooks, like young boy, as well as some sadder songs such as somedays, reflecting the terrible illness of his wife."
Used & New from: £0.94
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (26 customer reviews)

Flowers In The Dirt
5.  Flowers In The Dirt by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "This is another great album. A comeback after a couple of weaker 80's efforts. It's just a straight up McCartney record with great production and loads of gems."
Used & New from: £12.50
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

London Town
6.  London Town by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "London Town is a slower album after the arena rock of the mid-70's. It's peaceful and perfect to listen to in the Autumn."
Used & New from: £8.74
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (15 customer reviews)

Mccartney II
7.  Mccartney II by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "Mark my words, don't believe the reviews, this album is DISGRACEFULLY underrated. Not all the songs are 'new wave'. The album is loads of fun with ballads and rockers aplenty."
Used & New from: £4.98
3.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews)

Red Rose Speedway
8.  Red Rose Speedway by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "This is a really weird album. It contains usual Paul ballads like My Love, but almost progressive works such as Little Lamb Dragonfly. The songwriting is top notch."
Used & New from: £13.58
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Band on the Run: 25th Anniversary Edition
9.  Band on the Run: 25th Anniversary Edition by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "Overrated but still a great listen. The songs are very professionally written. There isn't a trace of randomness of previous efforts. Paul rocks hard for the first time since Helter Skelter."
Used & New from: £8.23
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

Ram
10.  Ram by Paul McCartney
The list author says:
  "It might be a bit overrated like Band on the Run, but I reckon it's the most fun album other than McCartney II. Paul is simply enjoying himself here and the melodies are quite Beatlesque."
Used & New from: £6.93
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (26 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion
