Released in 1970, a month before The Beatles' swansong Let It Be, McCartney was Paul's first solo album. Notable for the fact that he performed all instruments and vocals himself, aside from some backing vocals performed by Linda, it's an album rich in experimentation, and the original home of Maybe I'm Amazed. "The McCartney album was good fun," Paul remembers, "because I got a machine from EMI, only a four-track, and I just had it in my living room where I lived in London at the time. I'd just go in for the day like Monsieur Magritte. Go in and do a little bit of stuff and make something up, and knock off in the evenings.
