Product Description

'Chaos And Creation In The Back Yard', Paul McCartney's 20th studio recording since The Beatles, marks an end to a nearly four-year hiatus since his last studio recording, 2001's platinum certified 'Driving Rain'. The new 13-track album is co-produced by Nigel Godrich (Radiohead, Travis and Beck) and McCartney, and was recorded in London and Los Angeles over the course of the past two years. Its release coincides with the September 16th launch of McCartney's all new 37-city 'US' Tour, his fastest selling concert tour ever.

'Chaos And Creation In The Back Yard' is a return to the basics for McCartney. The album successfully fuses his undeniable song writing talents with his unparalleled musicianship. In fact, McCartney is credited with playing the majority of the instruments on the album, which is somewhat reminiscent of 'McCartney' (1970) when he was credited with playing all of the instruments. They include the drums, guitar, bass, keyboards, as well as many of the less traditional instruments such as block flute, harmonium and flugelhorn.

'Chaos And Creation In The Back Yard' is a mix of up-tempo piano driven McCartney instant classics such as 'Fine Line' and 'Promise To You Girl' and more introspective darker tracks such as 'At The Mercy,' 'Too Much Rain' and 'Riding To Vanity Fair.' One of the many highlights is a track entitled, 'Jenny Wren,' which Paul describes as 'daughter of Blackbird',' as well as 'Follow Me,' which McCartney debuted at The Glastonbury Festival, while on his '04 Summer European Tour.

減点回帰というか、ビートルズ時代のような曲も数曲あってファンにはうれしい、そして耳に優しい作品。 ポップな1曲で始まったかと思ったら、イギリス紳士のような上品な感じの曲までなかなか上質の1枚です。

最初の印象は、『やや、難しめのクラシック』って感じでした。病んでいて、不安定で・・・、でも、最後には安らぎを感じさせてくれる・・・。これは、ミュージシャンというより音楽家 Paul McCartney を実感させてくれた作品です。プロデュースを担当した若手ナイジェル・ゴッドリッチもただもんじゃぁないですな。バンドアンサンブルより1人多重録音がまたアルバムにそんな独特の雰囲気を作った気がします。
