Linda McCartney - Wide Prairie

 

If this posthumously released album doesn't appear to hang together, that shouldn't really come as a surprise. Wide Prairie is actually a whole bunch of recordings made, usually with Paul, by the photographer turned veggie icon from 1973's Band On The Run sessions right up until her final months. Hard as it is to put all of Linda's good work to one side, it is necessary for one to assess this record on its musical merits. And the fact is that it doesn't have any. Emphasising the positive, Wide Prairie is best viewed in the same way that one might a friend's family album. Many of these recordings--"Seaside Woman", "Wide Prairie" and "Cook Of The House"--are clearly made with fun in mind, as opposed to sales. Other songs though, notably the two pro-veggie collaborations with sit-com writer Carla Lane, reveal less-coherent motives. Particularly baffling is "Cow", which suggests a basic inability to grasp the distinction between farm animals and pets. --Peter Paphides
