Paul McCartney 3

Not really a fan of his solo work, but heard some buzz about his newest album and gave it a listen when it was realeased a few days ago and am immersed. Not to the point of being a fanboi but definitely appreciative and happy listening both as a music lover and an audiophile (and yes, there is a difference).

Good songwriting and production from a genre god who does this for the love of it.

All the McCartney judges out there let me know how many worldwide classic rock songs you've written, recorded and had on the charts? Music is subjective always, but he is admittedly the greatest living musical artist of modern times. At 78, the man never sits still. Some of us will never get to see 78 yrs., let alone have the No.1 album on the charts.

I gave it a whirl on Spotify yesterday. It didn’t grab me. I probably expect too much.

Admittedly? I think you misused that word, but I'll assume that you mean that everyone agrees that he's the greatest, in which case I think many if not most will disagree; myself among them. 
Anyway, past acheivments have nothing to do with his latest work. Like one of my old bosses used to say, "Yesterday's peacock is tomorrow's feather duster."
