Harleyblues take:
ok, I'm just gonna go for it and be blunt this writer is "Full of shit" they claim
"this is by no means a great album" again they are full of bullcips! wtf?
Memory Almost Full is one of Paul McCartneys best written albums in years! I wish they had a comment section so that I may input my view of their tiresome, awful review, ugh another Macca hater!

Famed Tenor dies of injury after shooting
Famed tenor Hadley dies of injury after shooting
Jerry Hadley apparently attempted to commit suicide last week
Famed tenor had reputation for taking on challenging works
Sang everything from Mozart to show tunes
POUGHKEEPSIE, New York (AP) -- Jerry Hadley, the world-class tenor known for his agile and lyric voice, died Wednesday, a week after he shot himself in an apparent suicide attempt.
Jerry Hadley sang lead in Paul McCartney's "Liverpool Oratorio," among many other works.
The 55-year-old singer died two days after doctors at St. Francis Hospital in Poughkeepsie took him off life support, said family friend and spokeswoman Celia Novo.
Hadley, who had been battling personal problems, shot himself with an air rifle July 10 at his home in Clinton Corners, 80 miles north of New York City. State police said he was found unconscious on his bedroom floor.
The Illinois-born Hadley sang everything from Mozart to show tunes, including appearing on a recording of "Show Boat" that was a best-seller.
He built his reputation tackling demanding work, including the title role in composer John Harbison's 1999 "The Great Gatsby" at the Metropolitan Opera. Leonard Bernstein chose Hadley to sing the title role in a 1989 production of his musical "Candide," and he sang the lead in Paul McCartney's "Liverpool Oratorio" in 1991. more

I can never understand when someone that has it all would want to kill themselves, this is truly tragic!

McCartney Fears virtual era
SIR PAUL MCCARTNEY
from Contact music
fears the virtual era is jeopardising the future of live performances.
The former BEATLE welcomes easier distribution of his new album Memory Almost Full with internet download services like iTunes, but insists he'll never be tempted to give up live gigs in favour of web concerts. The 65-year-old says, "I'm not interested in walking through a virtual world." And despite his fame, MCCartney reveals he's still a regular at other bands' live shows: "I can get out anywhere. You'd be surprised. If I want to go and see a band, I can do that." Last month (Jun07) MCCartney's own live performances in a string of U.S. record shops attracted unprecedented numbers of fans, many of whom queued more than 24 hours to see their idol in the flesh.
