Ram – Paul and Linda McCartney
Do you love The Smiths or The Stone Roses or acts like Bon Iver or Mumford & Sons? They all owe their origins to this lovely little album by Sir Paul McCartney (and his then wife, Linda). Paul (& Linda) flew off to New York after the acrimonious Beatles split, gathered a bunch of musicians and recorded this fresh and almost bucolic LP. ‘Ram’ was the first indie pop album.
