I just bought the 4CD deluxe edition and it says made in China, is yours the same if you bought one?, or am I being ripped off ?

How much would you pay for a 4 disc set, where you could pick your set list from a large list of remastered songs. I would pay more than usual...wish they had something like that!!

I got mine yesterday delivered from Amazon and it does say manufactured in China on the back. I would say that you're not being ripped off. This is a legitimate release you have.

Thanks, I do feel better. although the sound is great on them I thought they were authentic, just surprised that he moved to China to make his albums now, At The Speed of Sound and Venus and Mars also were made in China, it used to be EU, as long as they sound great as they are supposed to be I am fine, I guess they want to save money as they don't expect them to sell a lot, imagine, I bought mine at HMV Toronto, Canada, and they only received 2 copies, glad I got one, I am debating whether to buy the Vinyl, it's $75, I will wait to see the reviews if it is worth it.

Here's my Pure Bonus Disc . I made to go into the box set... Whole Life Rainclouds Hope Of Deliverance Footprints Helen Wheels However Absurd Love In Song Figure Of Eight Little Lamb Dragonfly Flying To My Home Getting Closer Ever Present Past Summer's Day Song Run Devil Run My Brave Face Mama's Little Girl Girls' School I feel better now...

Since Paul was insistent in including very recent music with his classic stuff, I'm surprised 'I Want To Come Home' was not included...not because I think it's a great song (although I like it)...but it seems to fit in the same mold of the 'recent' inclusions...and it's no where on CD yet
-
For those that got the 2 cd version as well it reads Manufactured in Poland.

I ripped the 4CD deluxe on my laptop to listen to them on the phone and in the car with USB, there was no media info for the first 2 CDs. like track names or album title, it just said track 1, track 2, etc... CD 3 and 4 were fine with track titles and the Album title, very strange, did anybody try that ?

Came across a peculiar story on the Net somewhere, about the idea for "Pure McCartney" springing just from a requested playlist by Paul's "New York office worker" for lots of his songs for a road trip she planned to take. So Paul and she sat down and came up with some, and then he decided to use them for this compilation. I doubt that's how this came about. Don't you? :

No it is true, Paul said it himself in an interview I listened to yesterday in a program called All songs+1, he talked about it and about songwriting, that's why Pure McCartney is not really a best of or Anthology like a lot of people think it was meant to be, it is actually songs for a road trip idea by a worker in his office, he said and he though it was a great idea and he chose the songs he would like to listen to if he was on a road trip and he did, that's what he said.

I think Paul just came up with that...as a nice little story and easy explanation for the project. It was, no doubt, a bit more calculated than that. Paul sometimes says things....like he once said some fan in a car in Los Angeles, in reference to "Wild Life", called out to him: "Love your new record, man". The story just didn't ring true. Paul wanted to make himself feel better. I think it helps Paul to place attention elsewhere....as a way to justify what he wants to believe or for others to believe....on something he has decided to do or has done. Just an opinion.

I think that could be quite possible. I speculated in a similar kind too.

My copy should be arriving tomorrow! (got the 4 disc set)

Listening to the 4 CD version. Great stuff Paul has been long overdue a best of collection. Ok there are a few glaring omissions my brave face and hope of deliverance being an example. Some nice photos in the booklet but I would like to have had more information about the songs the story behind them for example. We know the story behind every Beatles song but Paul's solo career is poorly documented.
