“On his 10th studio album, now reissued with rarities and B-sides, McCartney grappled with emotions too big to neatly fit inside a pop record.”

“The Beatles' "anthology" projects clearly left Paul McCartney in a reflective frame of mind. Too often in the past, that would mean a douse in a nostalgia bath, but on Flaming Pie, McCartney's look back is a genuine search — as though he were uncertain about what he might find there. The confusion becomes him, complicating his typically all-too-settled point of view and lending Pie a needed edge. ”
