Sir Paul`s first solo effort was a unique accomplishment. Besides performing all the various musical parts himself, he also did most of the recording, right in his living room, on a Studer 4-track reel-to-reel tape deck.
He had no console for the Studer, not even VU meters, so he had to wing it, and guesstimate the level settings (!). Turned out pretty good, all things considered.
