You are listening to the genuine Hi-Fi stereo sound transferred from the actual vinyl record in the best possible quality.

Ram is the only studio album credited to the husband-and-wife music duo Paul and Linda McCartney, and the former’s 2nd album post-Beatles. Released on 17 May 1971 by Apple Records, it was recorded in New York with guitarists David Spinozza and Hugh McCracken, and future Wings drummer Denny Seiwell. Single "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey" became McCartney's 1st number 1 hit in America without the Beatles.
The album's release coincided with a period of acrimony between McCartney and his former Beatle bandmates, and followed his legal action in the UK's High Court to dissolve the Beatles partnership.
Today, Ram is held in high regard by many music critics and is often ranked as one of McCartney's best albums.
