Most Overlooked Album of 2008

Paul McCartney's Electric Arguments (released as The Fireman) came and went and nobody bought it. Only die-hard's heard it. But that's not your fault. It's McCartney's for not promoting it. Which is sad, because the album was his best solo album since Tug of War, which means when McCartney is long gone historians will look back at his catalog and pick albums that were overlooked. And Electric Arguments will be the one. My guess is that McCartney himself will forget about it, and go back to crafting his carefully constructed late period albums. But you need to hear this album, before it's relegated to the history bin.
