              Some kind of special code inside, I suppose? If there's nothing unreleased on the B-sides, I will definitely not be doing this, since I'm already getting the boxes.

                I don't know if you already spoke abut it, but this reedition is awesome!!! The reedition includes the 13 original tracks plus: 1. Rock Show (primary version): is longer than the original, I think somebody made a post about it. 2. Walking in the park with Eloise - Lunch Box/Odd Sox - Bridge on the river suite: the three instrumentations. 3. Let's love: I think he gave this song to Peggy Lee.. now we gonna enjoy it with his voice. 4. Junior's farm: I always thought it was from SOS's sessions... 5. Soily from one hand clapping: The only record we have of Soily in studio, right? excellent version!! the way Paul sings this song is amazing. 6. Baby Face: No idea about this song... is made by him? 7. Hey Diddle (Erney Winfrey remix): Excellent version!! guitar and drums sound louder, but this is a song from Ram/McCartney I, right? 8. Going to New Orleans/My Carnival: The first song seems to be a primary version of My Carnival, and the second is... My Carnival, bored song 9. 4th of July: rare song, is just a demo. 10. Letting go (Single version): a little shorter than the original, but it has a louder drum and a different style of phrasing. There we have all the news. Incredible!

                  "Baby Face" is also from "One Hand Clapping":

                  It's also a "standard". Several artists have performed it, including Al Jolson, The Kinks and Bobby Darin. Paul also did a brief rendition of it in 2007 at the Roundhouse in London:

                  '02- L.A.'10- L.A., S.F.'11- NYC'12- Vancouver'13- Seattle, JKL'14- L.A., Phoenix, S.F., San Diego'15- Lollapalooza'16- Fresno, Desert Trip (x2)'17- Syracuse, Uniondale (Night 2)'19- San Diego, L.A. '22- Spokane, Seattle (Night 1), L.A.

                    Thanks for the info Sgt Pepper!! I though it was another forgotten song from his first sessions after Beatles.

                      Does Best Buy, Amazon, or any other place offer Bonus Tracks on the rereleases of Speed of Sound/Venus & Mars?

                          You have to pay 4.95shipping for each single that comes with the set at Best Buy.

                            The newly remastered 2014 cds. I was wondering if anyone was offering additional "bonus tracks" that no one else was.

                              Paul's version of "Baby Face" is seemingly based on Little Richard's version. I just got a Little Richard collection several months ago, and I was immediately struck by how similar it was, in tone of voice and style of playing.

                                Back to the thread topic, apparently there's nothing unreleased on the Best Buy vinyl singles, according to this: http://wogew.blogspot.com/2014/11/wings-best-buy-singles.html They are just re-releases of the U.S. singles of "Letting Go" and "Let 'Em In", with Capitol Records logos eliminated. It seems there was a last-minute change and "Letting Go" was used instead of "Venus And Mars / Rock Show". (Obviously, these are not the real grooves of the records, and it would be strange to have the small hole on a U.S. 45, but this is what we have so far...)

                                      Try some different web browsers. I've seen people report problems with Internet Explorer, but success with Chrome, or Safari. Or vice-versa. Their site seems very "buggy"...

                                        When I was in Best Buy the other day, they still had lots and lots of these. Had anyone actually received the 7" singles yet?
