Paul McCartney fans say movie soundtrack is most underrated album in his discography
Fans of the legendary songwriter Paul McCartney are calling his work on a movie soundtrack one of the most underrated albums in his discography.
Give My Regards to Broad Street, the film which stars McCartney, along with fellow Beatles member Ringo Starr, was praised by fans who say it is one of the best albums in the Wings frontman’s discography. Though the film did not do much at the box office or for critics at the time, fans of McCartney are suggesting it is one of his most underrated pieces of work and that there are several “great” songs on the album. One user took to the r/PaulMcCartney subreddit and wrote: “The most underrated Macca album is Give My Regards to Broad Street. And I’m not kidding.
“The album is usually maligned more than any other McCartney record (together with Driving Rain and Wild Life). Most songs/versions in Give My Regards to Broad Street are good, and several are just great.” Other users agreed with their assessment of the 1984 album and movie release, but also tipped the Fireman albums as the truly underrated pieces from McCartney’s backlog.
One user wrote: “Technically it’s a Fireman album, but Electric Arguments is greatly underrated.” Another added: “Electric Arguments is one of those albums where I like any given song heard in isolation but for whatever reason feels a bit of a slog to sit through in one listening session.”
