Thoughts: I'm not really sure how someone calls an album with two #1 singles, those being "Silly Love Songs" and "Let 'Em In", bad, but this album gets slammed constantly. I love a lot of these songs, like "Warm And Beautiful", "Beware My Love" and "Must Do Something About It", featuring drummer Joe English on vocals. I think that's why a lot of people complain about the album because of the lack of Paul's vocals, but I think this album was Paul's last effort to prove that Wings was a band. Still it's a fun album...not exactly a masterpiece (it's no Venus And Mars and certainly not Band On The Run), but it's the one thing practically all of Paul's albums are: enjoyable.
Rating: 7/10
