While the Let It Be album wouldn’t see the light of day for a few more weeks yet, a solo Beatles album was released in April of 1970 just on the heels of the band’s public breakup announcement…

McCartney was produced largely in secrecy, with Paul doing a majority of the recording and mixing himself on home studio equipment. Along with a few contributions from his wife Linda, Paul performed the entire album alone through the use of overdubs, giving McCartney an especially homespun feel – and in contrast to the “polished” production of recent Beatles albums such as Abbey Road.
