Album Notes
In 2011 McCartney and McCartney II received the Paul McCartney Archive Collection make-over. McCartney II originally issued in May of 1980 and was Paul’s return to solo work after nine years touring and having released several massively successful albums with Wings. Reaching #1 in the UK, and #3 in the US. The album produced enduring classics such as ‘Coming Up’, ‘Waterfalls’ & ‘Temporary Secretary’. Paul personally supervised all aspects of the re-issue and the remastering work was done at Abbey Road using the same team who remastered the complete Beatles’ catalogue.
McCartney II (Archive Collection) was made available as a 4 disc (3 CD, 1 DVD) Deluxe Edition featuring the original remastered album plus eight bonus tracks including B-Sides and alternative versions. The bonus audio CD includes the hit ‘Coming Up (Live At Glasgow, 1979)’ and holiday perennial ‘Wonderful Christmastime.’ The bonus DVD features rare and previously unseen footage (including performances of ‘Coming Up’ and a new video for the unreleased track ‘Blue Sway’). Additionally, the McCartney II deluxe edition also includes an additional eight rare bonus audio tracks; an extraordinary 128-page hard bound book featuring many previously unpublished photos by Linda McCartney, an illustrated history of the making of the album, and expanded track by track information for all three audio discs plus detailed historical information on the film content.
