Back catalogue releases related to McCartney's 2016 move back to Capitol - First releases announced*

No, I have all the different variations, Ram was the last single disc issued.

 

I thought so. Thanks for the confirmation.

 

Thanks. The book was from 1997 I do not know if it was ever updated. Amazon link attached. My copy has a pale blue cover.

Soily/Big Barn Bed/When The Night/Seaside Woman/Wildlife/Little Woman Love/C Moon/Maybe I'm Amazed/My Love/Live And Let Die/The Mess/Hi Hi Hi/Long Tall Sally

 

It was definitely repeated in Australia probably around '77 when I was first starting to transition from the The Beatles cartoons to the real Beatles. Even as a nine year old I knew it wasn't very good but I still loved seeing a Beatle on TV. The Ringo special aired the following year I think. I was excited about that because George was in it. It would have been funny if George made a guest appearance in James Paul McCartney as well Soon after these were on Tv out here I remember seeing Wings Over The World (a really big deal at the time) and Let It Be on tv here also not long after.

 

good news! looks like the udiscovermusic orders will be fulfilled after all. The links on paulmccartney.com are working now and they lead you to the udiscover store, for individual colored LPs as well as the bundle. I've already cancelled my netherlands site order.

Edit: I swear I saw them at $30 USD, they're now $35. Bundle also went up from $240 to $248

 

Still not bad considering you'll probably get them.

 

I just checked the link and it's still St $240 when I click it

 

I ordered four. So there!

 

Now back up on the UK Udiscover site and the sister site Sound Of Vinyl. £26.00 each + p&p and the full bundle for £208 + p&p
Sound of vinyl has a 10% voucher on the go just now: SOVMESSENGER

...comes to £187.20 + £6.95 p&p = £194.15

this is odd...

$240 Paul McCartney - 8LP Exclusive Color Vinyl Bundle

$248 LIMITED EDITION PAUL McCARTNEY COLOURED VINYL BUNDLE

 

Here's another clue for you all:

1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4

 

I've been called an SOBMESSENGER, but never an SOVMESSENGER ...

 

That is really odd. Well I would definitely go with the cheaper one

 

I hear there's slightly different EQ between the two - better be on the safe side and get both.

 

And the difference between the two versions is EIGHT dollars...

 

Can't deal with the prices on the colored vinyl. You can get the standard black vinyl on DeepDiscount for 13 bucks and some change if you use their 15% coupon.

 

if you look carefully at the links, they're not the same website.
The first one is the US website, the second link shows me UK Pounds prices,
which if you toggle to US$ it's doing a currency conversion from 208 pounds to get to $248 US.
The difference of $8 has to do with the exchange rate, the US store site is priced at $240.

 

McCartney II and Pipes Of Peace over Red Rose Speedway and London Town?

 

RRS and LT were never going to be part of this campaign, having not (yet!) had an Archive release. This campaign just gets the previously Archived albums (minus Wings Over America) out there with a Capitol label.

 

UDiscover Music in the UK now have the coloured vinyl and black vinyl. The coloured bundles are now showing sold out as are the coloured vinyl debut, Ram Band and Venus.
Interesting that the sold out ones are the earlier albums perhaps that might tell MPL something such as it really is nearly all over.
Just my thoughts but I would bet Wild Life and Red Rose Speedway would outsell anything post McCartney 2.

 

UK Sound of Vinyl appears to be selling out fast on the coloured vinyl:

McCartney, Ram, Band on the Run, Venus & Mars all say Sold Out.

I've just gone for Speed of Sound, McCartney II, and Tug of War - after discount paid £23.40 each

 

I just got in there for the red LP was literally sold out straight after I got a confirmation email, hopefully my order will stand with u discover.

 

It's back up on that Canadian site as well. Code WELCOME (all caps yes) will get you $45 off to make it just about $200 including shipping to the US.

Exclusive Colour Vinyl Bundle

 

Thanks. I just placed an order as a backup if SoundStage Direct cancels.
