  • Paul's Mediocre Mid-Career Album

    4 out of 5 stars
    SoomjsiK21August 3, 2025United States🇺🇸

    El álbum de Paul en esta carrera es bastante flojo, con solo 3 o 4 canciones destacables. Como era de esperar, la traducción es mala, ya que "Press to Play" debería ser algo como "presiona para reproducir" y no "presionado a tocar", que se traduciría como "forced to play". El sonido no es malo, tiene buenos bajos. Vale la pena si se consigue a un precio muy bajo, si no, mejor pasar. Lo mejor de Paul está entre 1970 y 1983 y luego, entre 1997 y después. Este disco está en el período más mediocre de su carrera.

  • McCartney's Press To Play Delight

    5 out of 5 stars
    XelwbxeniyuMay 4, 2025United Kingdom🇬🇧

    Press To Play is among my most loved McCartney Albums and honestly, every song is fantastic, I'd highly suggest this album to anyone.

  • Inconsistent Yet Intriguing Album

    4 out of 5 stars
    KqDikuoApril 25, 2025United States🇺🇸

    From PRESS TO PLAY, four tracks were chosen as singles - "Stranglehold", "Only Love Remains", "Angry", and "Press" - and they stand out as the highlights of this album. On the other hand, "Talk More Talk" and "Pretty Little Head" fall short. This creates a record that's intriguing yet inconsistent. Hugh Padgham's production doesn't always hold up over time, but this particular copy sounds fantastic, with a wide range and a lively, dynamic sound. I suspect my copy might be unplayed, as it looks brand new and plays perfectly.

  • Album Worth Trying, Tape Best

    5 out of 5 stars
    fiveetMarch 29, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I just spent time writing a detailed review, and then the app logged me out. Grab this album. It's not terrible. Try it out. The tape version is the best.

  • Crisp, Dynamic Audio Delight

    5 out of 5 stars
    YajtqudVqiyudnFebruary 18, 2025United States🇺🇸

    I'm blown away by the incredible dynamics and the super crisp, well-defined audio, honestly didn't expect this level of sound quality at all
