Although borderline despised at the time of it’s release Ram has become a favorite album for McCartney fans everywhere who love a catchy melody and straight forward rock & roll. One of my personal favorites, this album stands the test of time as songs like “Too Many People,” “Dear Boy,” “Heart of the Country” and “Smile Away” never seem to disappoint. Perhaps this wasn’t the album people at the time were hoping for, but maybe people today will see it’s genius when it gets a brand spanking remastered makeover. Harnessed in old-time rock and roll and littered with guitar riffs and catchy as hell choruses, Ram may have been released in 1971 but it continues to reveal it’s originality today.

We realize that listening to digitally remastered music through a computer speaker may seem a bit ridiculous, but at least it’s a good excuse to rock some good tunes.

Watch two preview videos for the album below, then listen to two remastered tracks here and here, then head over here to get all the details on the full album’s May 22nd release.

One of the most adorable videos you will ever see – featuring Paul, Linda and Martha.

Paul briefly talks about the inspiration for and the making of RAM.
