The 13 new songs on Memory Almost Full is Paul McCartney's 21st solo album from the former Beatle. McCartney, who recently turned 65, creates an album that is evocative, emotional and rocking. Paul describes the album as being a very personal record and a lot of it is retrospective, drawing from memory, like memories from being a kid, from Liverpool and from summers gone.
McCartney states: "I actually started this album, Memory Almost Full, before my last album Chaos and Creation in the Backyard, released September 2005. When I was just finishing up everything concerned with Chaos and had just got the Grammy nominations (2006) I realized I had this album to go back to and finish off. So I got it out to listen to it again, wondering if I would enjoy it, but actually I really loved it.
All I did at first was just listen to a couple of things and then I began to think, OK, I like that track now, what is wrong with it? And it might be something like a drum sound, so then I would re-drum and see where we would get to. In places it's a very personal record and a lot of it is retrospective, drawing from memory, like memories from being a kid, from Liverpool and from summers gone. The album is evocative, emotional, rocking, but I can't really sum it up in one sentence"
Critics maintained the album had a really Wings-esque sound, as 1997's Flaming Pie was a Beatles-inspired project.There were also comparisons to The Beatles' Abbey Road, as the medley of five songs in the second part of the album resembles the famous song suite.Memory Almost Full is an anagram of "for my soulmate LLM" (the initials of Linda Louise McCartney). When asked if this was intentional, McCartney replied; "Some things are best left a mystery". The album's title was actually inspired by a message that came up on his mobile phone. He thought the phrase summed up modern life.
