ANOTHER BLOODY BIRD SONG!!!!! "A Sparrow's Song What next? A cover of Old Man Emu?
So Paul likes birds...He's written two whole songs about them, and had a band called Wings. SO F...ING WHAT?!
Two? -Blackbird -Bluebird -Single Pigeon -Jenny Wren -Two Magpies Five at least I'd say. It's a formula that hasn't failed him yet. I love all those songs. I was hoping a couple of years he'd write a penguin one. So I wrote it instead, and that got me writing songs.
Yeah at least 5. That's all he ever writes about.
:
Yeah! Those 7 or 8 songs out of about 700 songs certainly prove you right. Aren't we all crying out for him to write about cockroaches or earwigs or jellyfish or fungi or genital warts or athletes foot or yoghurt or dampness or haemorrhoids or itchiness or poo and farts instead...

Here is a listing of tracks from Memory Almost Full http://www.iorr.org/talk/read.php?1,690937 The more that I think about this and read the posts, the more I am convinced that is a fake (April Fools indeed).

a little harsh?
I wasn't talking to you. Who are you to judge! ? It's a JOKE dammit. Can't you see I'm laughing. So step off!
I was laughing too.

There are two indicators that this is fake: 1)There is a track called April Fool`s day; and 2) It`s an "exclusive" on Macca Report!

I like the idea about an April fools day. Sounds like a winner.

Maybe. But, unfortunately,it doesn`t exist.

Thats a shame, sounded promising! None of it true? Does anyone know any more about the songs Paul recorded with Ringo fairly recently,and if they will be on the new album ? I certainly hope so . I'd like an entire album with just songs by Paul and Ringo , and only the two of them playing on it...maybe a wee tour too

Here's my mad take on the new album: I think it's already secretly done. And -- in kind of a David Bowie-strategy -- it will be released, seemingly out-of-nowhere, on the opening date of the tour. I'll even venture to suspect that the entire audience will receive a copy of the album, just like Prince did during his 2004 tour -- and that particular album quickly darted into the Top Ten (of course, Billboard has since changed its rules). It just doesn't make sense to embark on such a punishing tour-schedule like this in the summer -- and not promote an album ... ...that's supposedly not due for release until November. C'mon. We shall see.

I agree with you totally. Doing this type of tour and not promoting new record would be really dumb IMO. As I have stated before, I like McCartney concerts a bunch better when he has a new album out because the audience will get to hear some brand new songs. I also think most McCartney songs sound better live than on record.

Yepper.

but, can you guys shed any light on the stuff he did with Ringo a little while ago ?

That'll be a no then ?

I love Paul, but give out free albums? Even if you've paid $250 for concert tickets? Paul? Free stuff? I would not hold my breath.

Your theory makes perfect sense, Audi. Unfortunately, Paul has occasionally toured without a new album (like the last couple years) and released albums without touring. And there have been enough oddities over the years in Paul's handling of standard bits of album promotion -- singles, videos, etc. -- that one is forced to conclude that just because a strategy would make sense does not at all guarantee Paul will do it. As you said, we shall see.

This is news to me. When did these sessions take place?

I agree the album is probably done and he'll probably play some new songs during the tour. He always seems to have something new, as he did with My Valentine last year. I do not think he will be giving the album away at the concerts. Nice idea though.

Ads for his upcoming tour do mention...."all new..." He could just be deleting some songs that need to be given a rest and adding some from the past, but......new material seems likely as well. Audiences don't necessarily want to hear something they're not at all familiar with, or for the first time, at a Paul McCartney concert, so it would seem he would release a new album before the tour begins to generate some buzz and interest and take it from there.

I'm sure somebody mentioned it on another thread about his new album on this forum. I'm beggining to think I've imagined it now
Paul , Ringo and Geoff Emerick rings a bell ...
