VENUS AND MARS: 
PAUL McCARTNEY & WINGS
 [1975] 
For 'Venus And Mars', Paul McCartney expanded the Wings line-up. This is a more cohesive ensemble effort. Hindered at times by the overindulgent tendency that the former Beatle falls victim to so often on record, this album is saved by some of his best Wings era tracks. When the planets do align, McCartney delivers in spades. There are irresistible pop hooks aplenty on songs such as "Listen To What The Man Said" and "Magneto And Titanium Man". Wings rock out on "Rock Show" and "Letting Go". McCartney offers some lovely ballads such as "Love In Song" and the title track. Ignore the cheesy fluff and enjoy the quality selections. Highlight tracks: Magneto And Titanium Man; Letting Go; Listen To What The Man Said.
