Me too. It's like he's sucking his cheeks in.

I read Charlie Watts picked the drummer. They were relieved to have someone Charlie picked to go to. -
Really like the fuzz bass on that song

Glad to see Paul getting around, but the song sounds like someone parodying the Stones trying to do punk. I'll pass.

The Rolling Stones' "Hackney Diamonds" has barely been out of the UK Album Chart Top 5 since it was released in late October, and has been to the Number 1 position twice. Can't imagine Paul doing that these days...it's usually a high entry on the first week of release, then it rapidly descends, disappearing from the Top 100 within a few weeks....

Very simple answer. The general music public believes Paul's solo work is not any good and will not give it a try. His fairly small fanbase for his solo albums will come out in force when album is released but he does not get others to buy his solo records. I am sure this would be a different story if the Beatles were still releasing new albums. The Rolling Stones are still together as a group and the album has gotten good critical reviews. In addition, the Rolling Stones said they were going to do a tour behind the album to give it some more publicity. Has Mick Jagger or Keith Richards ever had a major hit as a solo artist? I believe the answer is no.
