Review Excerpts
- "...young freak-folk indie-rockers have serious competition from actual ’60s titans like Mr. McCartney. On this album he sets loose his inner hippie — playful, tuneful, enigmatic, benevolent..."The New York Times: McCartney Communes With His Inner Hippie (November 23, 2008 )
- "McCartney's melodic, harmonic and improvisational skills combine with Youth's inventive, intelligent production for a stunning array of sounds. The variety of terrain on this album is astounding, and these two know their way around it all".WIRED: The Fireman Cometh... (November 19, 2008)
- "Youth might make a suggestion about a groove, then they talk back and forth,Paul runs in and out control room and studio, as Youth suggests stuff and they record ideas. Youth arranges them into a form, then they go back to work improvising over that".WIRED: Video: Paul McCartney and Youth Talk 'The Fireman' (November 18, 2008)
