Free Music Review: Run With This Classic
Hit: 5 Stars
Most people consider Band On The Run as the greatest achievement of Paul McCartney's solo career. With the high quality of songs, it's tough to argue that point. The title track is a mini masterpiece, going through four different musical passages, sharp lyrics, tight instrumentation and a top-flight vocal performance. "Jet" is a roaring rocker with a great horn section. "Bluebird" is a lush, beautiful ballad that Mr. McCartney is best known for. "Mrs. Vanderbilt" has a classic, pumping bassline that shows off what an inventive bassist Mr. McCartney is. The song has an infectious "ho, hey, ho" chorus that pops up later in the album. "Let Me Roll It" contains a fiery vocal performance and "Mamunia" is a pretty mid-tempo song with heavenly harmonies. "Helen Wheels" is ballsy rocker about his car and "Picasso's Last Words (Drink To Me)" is a simple song that could be a pub sing along. "Nineteen Hundred & Eighty Five" closes out the album and revisits the main musical themes that run throughout the album. Critics hailed the album upon its release and it was a strong comeback from the lackluster Red Rose Speedway. The album went to number one and became the first album in history to hit number one on three separate occasions and contained three top ten singles.
