The two hundred second album: #202 Paul McCartney - McCartney

Where do you go with your music after leaving the Beatles? For Paul McCartney, the answer seems to have been to tone down the production and go for something simpler instead. Paul McCartney is created with just about anything you hear on the album (other than some harmony vocals) and it seems to have created a more minimal, stripped down pop rock without dropping down into folk, keeping up some production beyond that. The downside of all of that is that the album has no stand out songs, instead being serviceable and highly listenable throughout.
