I guess I'm not surprised that Ram didn't do well with critics. It's really it's own weird universe, and I'm sure wasn't what people were wanting / expecting to hear. However, to me it's the best album any of them put out after the breakup. It's just magical. Monkberry Moon Delight is probably my favorite track, so profoundly weird, yet joyous and just awesome. Only McCartney could have written and performed that. Great record.

All of the Beatles had a very successful solo careers
-
The Beatles are the only band group that after their breakup had successful solo career
-
The ending was fantastic and so emotional I cried so sad that John had finally found peace and harmony which showed through his music and he was tragically murdered.
-
It's hard to pick a best solo Beatle. They were all so talented and good
-
John's solo work all day long for me.
-
The solo beatle years are so under-rated
-
George had the best selling album as a solo Beatle
-
Ram is definitely my favourite solo Beatles album, crazy to think it was disliked when it came out.
-
RAM is my favourite solo Beatles album it’s so good
-
The early McCartney albums, McCartney and Ram, need a disclaimer. In the United States.Rolling Stone Magazine, was the standard bearer in rock journalism. Jan Werner, the head of the magazine, had a relationship with John. Werner put the stop to positive reviews of McCartney work. On the McCartney review he had the critic re-write his review and to “not” like it. Other magazines would follow Rolling Stones lead.

They all had success and highs and lows .I think these guys had balls to move on.
-
“Plastic Ono Band” is the greatest solo Beatles album. All Things Must Pass, Imagine and Band on the Run/Ram come next
-
Great video. Good job. Lennons comments on Paul and Ringo’s first albums is hilarious haha. Talk about speaking your mind. Love them all
-
My sweet lord is my favorite song IN HISTORY. Literally of all time
-
You have such a captivating way of delivering information. Very entertaining and well researched. Another great video.

Good stuff, well worth a watch. When I think of the big, the huge hit songs of the 70s I don’t think of any by the ex Beatles apart from Imagine. They were massive in the 60s when together but as individuals they were just average and sometimes not even that.

Ram is the album I go to the most. I loved it then, I love it now.

Interesting thing is that John and Paul looked each other`s work a lot. The overly simple "McCartney" clearly inspired the sparse production of "JL & POB", "Ram" clearly inspired the more corny production of "Imagine". "Wild Life" was somewhat Paul`s answer to "JL and POB", even more radical.
