We use a VPI machine and thoroughly clean all records. Each order is carefully packaged by removing the LP from the jacket to avoid seam splits, use of 3 ml plastic cover sleeves over each LP and jacket, cardboard pad inserts, and placed in sturdy record mailers for safe delivery.

THICK GATEFOLD COVER FIRST PRESSING!
THEE Original 1970 "APPLE" RECORDS::::
Stripped down, organic and easy on the ears and with fascinating homemade sound... A lo-fi masterpiece -- "Junk", "That Would be something", "The Lovely Linda" and "Maybe I'm Amazed" are all instant classics. A mixed amongst the rest are some gems of unfinished and half thought out pop songs. An underrated album. This is a Lo-Fi pop album made in 1970 features ALL instruments played by Paul McCartney, who recorded the album in his home studio. 1970's "McCartney" was the perfect album for Paul to make after the dissolution of The Beatles - imagine the pressure of following not only Abbey Road, but the Beatles as an act! It's the sound of Paul laying it all out there and subliminally saying "hey, this is what I can do, hope you dig it...if not, I'm not shoving it in your face that I was a Beatle" - a feeling not too far away, but not as severe as John's "I don't believe in Beatles". Where John may have felt emboldened by the break-up and therefore took an extreme approach to his first post-Beatles album. Overall the album is a charmer and a grower with repeat plays. Yes, some of this stuff sounds like demos, but demos often sound good for particular reasons, and that's largely the case here. And give the guy credit for anticipating the lo-fi movement. The record flows very nicely and one of Paul's all-time "near-greats" after Ram and Band On The Run. Side one- "That Would Be Something" – 2:41 "Valentine Day" – 1:43 "Every Night" – 2:35 "Hot as Sun/Glasses" – 2:09 "Junk" – 1:56 "Man We Was Lonely" – 3:00 Side two
