"Electric Arguments" by Paul McCartney - ***

First released: 2008

Paul’s first album since the highly praised "Memory Almost Full" set is a return to the “Fireman” concept. This time, however, Paul sings vocals on virtually every song and makes basically a new Paul McCartney album. There are hints of the two previous Fireman albums, but the entire project comes across as a more adventurous sounding and actually rocking McCartney album with very little of the former album’s trance roots. For my tastes, I would have put the opening track ("Nothing Too Much Just Out of Sight") and put it after track 10 and eliminated tracks 11-13.
