Free Music Review: Not So Bad
Hit: 4 Stars
The year 1983 cost former Beatles' member Paul McCartney so much. Even though the album produced #1 song SAY SAY SAY dueted with Michael Jackson then at the top of the corporate music world with THRILLER, it did not have so much appreciaion it deserves.
True that it lacks BEATLES' dyanamism, WINGs sweet pop but this one is also fine in its own right. Sweet ballad SO BAD has faith in its music while KEEP UNDER COVER never betrays the upbeatness Paul had during Beatles and Wings days. And last song THROUGH OUR LOVE nicely closes Paul's just as it is album.
Verdict: Not as instant as predecessors but a fine one.
Rating: 83 out of 100
Recommended for: Mid 80s pop fans.
Pipes of Peace Poster
Released in late 1983, Pipes of Peace peaked at No. 15 on the Billboard album charts, thereby becoming the first Paul McCartney LP to run out of gas before reaching the U.S. top 10. Which is not to say that it deserved better--despite the well-meaning title track and the duet with Michael Jackson on "Say Say Say," Pipes of Peace marked a definite artistic low for Sir Paul. Coming on the heels of 1982's effervescent Tug of War, Pipes of Peace sounded surprisingly sleepy and uninspired, and the few half-decent songs ("Keep Under Cover," the unfortunately titled "So Bad") didn't stand a chance against the album's bland, state-of-the-'80s production values. "Say Say Say," a big improvement over "The Girl Is Mine," Macca and Michael's previous collaboration, easily outclasses the album's other tracks. Happily, you can also find it on All the Best, where it gets the company it deserves. --Dan EpsteinPop Music CDs
