Band On The Run

Band on the Run is generally considered Paul McCartney's strongest solo effort.

The album was also his most commercially successful, selling well and spawning two hit singles, the multi-part pop suite of the title track and the roaring rocker "Jet."

Though it lacks the emotional resonance of contemporaneous releases by John Lennon and George Harrison, McCartney's infallible instinct for pop-craft overflows on this excellent release.
