Hailed as one of the best albums in Paul McCartney’s solo career, “Memory Almost Full” was released June 5th 2007, to widespread critical acclaim from publications including Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, People Magazine and The New Yorker to name a few.
Hear Music’s inaugural release, “Memory Almost Full” shipped more than 500,000 copies. In addition, the video, “Dance Tonight” has been added in medium rotation at VH1 and the radio single “Ever Present Past” continues to maintain a strong presence across multiple radio formats including AAA, Classic Rock and AC. An estimated six million people heard the new album in a single day as part of Starbucks unprecedented Global Listening Event where more than 10,000 Starbucks locations in 29 countries and territories played the album across all time zones.
Paul's thoughts on this album:
I started this album, Memory Almost Full, before my last album Chaos And Creation In The Backyard (released September 2005). The first recording session was back in the autumn of 2003 at Abbey Road with my touring band and producer David Kahne. I was right in the middle of it when I began talking with Nigel Godrich about a brand new project (which became Chaos And Creation In The Backyard).
After the Grammy nomination when everything concerning Chaos was finished I returned to making this album. I was wondering if I would enjoy it, but actually I really loved it. In places it’s a very personal record and a lot of it is retrospective, drawing from memories of being a kid from Liverpool and summers gone. The album is evocative, emotional, rocking, but I can’t really sum it up in one sentence.
There is a medley of 5 songs towards the end and that was purposefully retrospective. I thought this might be because I’m at this point in my life, but then I think about the times I was writing with John and a lot of that was also looking back. It’s like me with ‘Penny Lane’ and ‘Eleanor Rigby’ - I’m still up to the same tricks!
