This album altered my brain chemistry. It's ridiculous how good and modern it sounds.

As it has been noted before, the problem with this album is that its release was rushed. Paul was at a creative peak at the time and this album doesn't do him justice at all. There's a lot of uninspired filler, both instrumental AND vocal. Junk is arguably the best song here. Unfortunately only Maybe I'm Amazed seems to have stood the test of time.
