Ram, stylized as RAM is the second studio album by Paul McCartney and the first by Linda McCartney; It is the only album credited to both of them. The album was recorded in New York with future Wings drummer Denny Seiwell and two other guitarists.
Upon release, the album was panned by critics for its simplicity, and it was even panned by other Beatles like Ringo Starr and John Lennon; Lennon, in particular, felt that some songs were jabs at him. However, it has still been very successful and has had three successful singles.
