(POLL) Paul McCartney Fans: What Do You Want Next?

I know, another Paul McCartney thread, but I'm curious..

There has been talk about when the next up in the Archive Collection will see release, and since the contract announcement, everything is up in the air.

What would you like to see next?

 

New album.

 

A proper collection of outtakes

 

A vinyl box set of his solo albums.

 

Red Rose, London Town, Egg Archive sets.

 

I don't care, I just want it out before the end of the year.

 

I'm voting: OTHER.

I want a 36-CD boxed set just like Dylan is releasing. I don't care what Paul includes on those 36 CDs. I just want 36 CDs of Paul...

 

Love me Paulie. Just want another similar McCartney 1 or Ram album, a mixture of both album styles in one new album if need be.


Reality is I don't need nothing from Paulie only to stay healthy and just be Paul. Albums and concerts are secondary all in the name of Paulies health. I want Paulie around for a long time more, we all lost John much horribly and tragically to soon. Miss me Georgie all the same.

 

I probably shouldn't tell you this, but one is coming out New Years Day. 36 CD's containing one word each.

You. Bought. This. HA. Wow. You'll. Buy. Anything. You. Are. A. Sucker. Wow. This. Reminded. Me. Of. Working. With. The. Beatles. Did. You. Check. The. Coming. Soon. Card. And. The. Mail. In. For. Tote. Bags. Hey. Jude.

 

New album. I wish he'd get his skates on with this.

I'd like more Archive releases too. Not stoked about Flowers In The Dirt.. The most disappointing one to date. I can't wait for it to come out so I can (hopefully) start looking forward to the next one.

 

Anything just Inspired.

 

"Flowers In the Dirt" & "Off the Ground" archive collection releases!

 

I voted Flowers, but only because we know it's DONE. It's just sitting, gathering (figurative) dust, unlike his new album which we know is NOT complete. I'd opt for new material first otherwise.

 

I don't believe you. Because your post has 37 words.

 

Red Rose Deluxe box!

 

That's the deluxe edition. Will come with 3 numbered pictures as well

 

Wild Life deluxe edition, Red Rose Speedway (remixed!) deluxe edition.

 

Wild Life 2 cd set like the Bob Dylan Another Self Portrait release. Live tracks, B-sides, demos, alt takes, sessions that would appear on Red Rose Speedway etc..

 

ha! beat me to it.

 

I would love to see brand new McCartney compositions performed by young (but musically sympathetic) artists. Bands with great harmonies and production like Grizzly Bear or Dawes or Haim or Grohl even. I would like this album to (and all of the young social media impressions it collects) precede McCartney's own version of these very same songs. He's had such a hard time creating a new song that is perceived as a classic. He's still working My Valentine, hoping it will catch on. As one of the greatest songwriters of any era, it is a shame (to me) that he focuses so much on being a performing artists or even celebrity. It is tragic, but unlikely that he will be able to get any song (no matter how brilliant) to seriously catch on if he attempts to perform it. Let young artists copy his demos, not only will McCartney fans flock to hear what he's written, but so too will eager and active fans of the young artists. Let the song gain traction on social media and perhaps even the charts, before we hear McCartney's own version.

Worst case scenario, none of it catches on. However, just imagine if a young band has a hit, one they feel compelled to play live. Too me, this is the only winning options. Septuagenarians may have number 1 albums (for a week) but they never have number 1 songs. He is a songwriter after all.

 

I would like a heavily acoustic album featuring only him on instruments and production

 

That's because the 37th word is on the bonus 7".

 

I want a 100% analog edition - straight from the tapes- vinyl edition of Ram. The same way they did the Beatles in mono.

 

I'd like him to play bass in the Stones. Maybe even help them a bit with the lack of melodic content. He's got melodies leaking out from under his fingernails, but needs to work with a tougher rhythm section that will push him. The Stones need some semblance of melody if the 'songs' on ABB are any indication. Like with Elvis, a few songs go on Pauls album, a few for the Stones.

 

The reissues can wait until after he's dead. I'm sorry, but if it were up to me, he'd be releasing a new album every year like he did in the 70's.

The Fireman proved that stuff that the guy makes up on the spot is better than a lot of the stuff that's out there.
