Was Paul's 'Ram' record great or just so-so?

Only song I know on it is Uncle Albert. Not great music but, I still have fond memories of it.
 
My opinion is that the best post Beatles McCartney song is 10 time worse than the worst Beatles era McCartney.
 
I found Uncle Albert highly annoying and never ventured further into it. I am not a big fan of Paul's post Beatles output. I don't deny his talent, but he is not my cup of tea.
 
One of the best ways to experience Ram is inside a Ram truck with the Klipsch Reference Premiere sound system.
  • 23 speakers
  • Over 1,200 watts
  • 12-inch subwoofer
  • Titanium dome tweeters
  • Developed by Klipsch with Panasonic
  • Produces a very wide soundstage with excellent detail and powerful bass

I wouldn't call it a great ablum. It just seems very disjointed and most of the songs kind of suck.....I'll pass and put something else on.
 
The record strikes me as a studio jam where some of Paul's ideas aren't fully developed or they just reach a dead end. Great record though and you can't deny Paul's genius.
 
I was listening to RAM this morning on my way into work and it is my favorite solo album of his, and probably in my top 25 favorite albums of all time. Insane the amount of SLANDER it has received here from you philistines.

I just scrolled up and realized I already basically said this in this thread. I don't care. I will truck no criticism of this inventive, adventurous, and wonderfully unique gem of an album. @Peen Simmons knows what I'm talking about.
 
Well... I guess reading the thread, it isn't getting roasted as much as I remembered... maybe I'm overly defensive of poor ol' RAM. Still, I never understood why it was so universally panned when it came out. I think it's undeniably great!
 
He was said to be in "exceptionally high spirits" while making this album.


Of course, Band On The Run was more accessible.
