[CRAZY-HORSE]

"SPEED OF SOUND" WINGS

this album was released in 1976, was Wings' 5th album and Maccas 7th since the Beatles split. after two great albums ('band on the run' and 'venus and mars') this was/is a huge dissapointment. 5 of the 11 tracks were sung by other members of the group and/or written by other members. to me it is the second worst album of Paul McCartneys illustrious career,the worst being the woeful Wings Wildlife album from1972.
there seems to be a total lack of committment with this album,theres only four tracks worthy of being called 'mccartney' songs, the rest arent worthy of b-side material at any stage of Pauls 48 year career in music, theres a lot of nothing songs, nothing melodies and woeful lyrics here. still, the album spent 7wks at #1 in the US charts and reached #2 in the UK charts. two hugely popular singles from the album:
Silly Love Songs: #1 in US, #2 in UK
Let 'em In: #3 in US and #2 in UK
were still not enough to call this a good album

I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM:

best track/s: the two singles
worst tracks: 'cook of the house'(linda vocals) and 'the note you never wrote'(denny laine vocals)
