Yes, we do! The McCartney Recording Sessions Website lists quite a few unreleased songs from this period (http://webpages.charter.net/ram71/unreleased.htm). I would really like to see a fourth CD in the package featuring - among others: Pick It Up --1987 Big Day --1987 Return To Pepperland --1987 Twenty Fine Fingers -with Costello --1987 Tommy's Coming Home -with Costello --1987 Peacocks --1987 Indigo Moon --1988 I Don't Want To Confess --1988 Mambo Me Baby --1988 So Long Blackie --1988 Current Affairs --1988 Come Back --1988 Weird Drama Oscillator --1988 Riff Ma-Tick --1988

Whatâs happening with âThe Paul McCartney Archive Collectionâ reissues?
Itâs been a while since the last one (Flowers in the Dirt) and since then I have seen newer digipack reissues in HMV of all of the previously remastered releases but without the grey side strip and spine..
And then today thereâs been the announcement of another 4 reissues: Wings Greatest, Thrillington, Chaos & Creation...., and New; again all without the âArchive collectionâ strip on the digipack and with no mention of them being part of the collection.
Are they doing away with it and going for straightforward reissues? I think Concord is missing from the newer issues too...

I have thoroughly enjoyed the previous ten Paul McCartney Archive Collection reissues in their deluxe edition format.
I can understand that projects like this may not always encapsulate all of the releases I and oithers would like to see reissued due to changes on many levels, such as the artist's ongoing involvement, sales, company participation, etc.
I would just like to add my vote (if such a thing is acceptable) to continuing this wondeful line of reissues.
Thank you so much to Mr. McCartney, the behind the scenes staff, the relevant engineers, etc. for a job well done.
Sincerely,
bbrownlie
