Paul McCartney Archive Collection - 'Forthcoming Releases' [2019+]

Because... McCartney! Film!

 

Apparently Pharrell Williams is an alias for Paul McCartney. Who knew?

 

They snuck it in:

November, 2115.

 

Lee Eastman II is John Eastman's son and law partner (and Paul's nephew).

 

Another Lee!

Good detective work.

 

What the... "Pending release, the film is being kept in a high-tech safe behind bulletproof glass that will open automatically on November 18, 2115, the day of the film's premiere."
A high-tech safe that will be very old-fashioned for the people then.

 

Why is all this being discussed in the Archive thread? There is already a proper thread for these discussions.

Current Paul McCartney news thread (interviews, articles, miscellaneous)

 

So, is there hope for an Archive Edition announcement early next year?
Would be cool if it's Flaming Pie this time, but I'd take Back To The Egg, too.

 

This is a High In The Clouds Archive Release.

In addition to a lavish reproduction of the book, the bonus features include and entirely never before released film as well as companion soundtrack.

 

Well Mike C gave us a clue that something could be coming "Paul wise" before Let It Be 50.....but he said "not Archive wise"......that leaves a million possibilities...………

 

Yup. Paul has teased a "soundcheck" release, guitar concerto, High In The Clouds now... [not counting It's A Wonderful Life..]

Edit: probably be more colored vinyl reissues...

 

Colored Vinyl- Ho Hum...…..

He also commented in the past about a Christmas album since he has done Christmas songs for his family the past 50 years...………..

 

Yeh, that's one I forgot to mention. I doubt that would ever be a spring release, though... more likely a fall/winter.

 

What? You don't need six LP multi-colored vinyl release of Pure McCartney...?

 

well, let's look ahead to 2020 (a mixture of fact, rumor and guess)

High in the Clouds obviously coming on Netflix/ we know there were songs recorded for a soundtrack so ? there
The thing Mike C alluded to which is none of these
I'd be surprised if the Cavern show from last year that was filmed doesn't make an appearance
Let It be everything that I've heard is May (but I think somebody here mentioned that the original film may have a later in the year release)
If true (and I stress IF) archive release early summer

Rumors on the board of a George "All Things Must Pass"and "McCartney" anniversary so who knows if they show up

we have tours by both Paul and Ringo
We know that additional work will be done on "It's A Wonderful Life" to get it ready for 2021
Record Store Day on April 18th (will we get a special release?)

passed that, who knows at the moment. But shaping up to possibly be another busy year

 

I would love colored wax editions of 'Wildlife' & 'Red Rose'.

 

Apparently Ringo is going to ask Paul to delay the reissue of McCartney after Let It Be

 

It's a Film list...

100 years Film: Across The Universe
Jojo Rabbit Film: Komm, gib mir deine Hand
Yesterday Film: Several Lennon and McCartney songs
Live and Let Die Film: Live and Let Die
Vanilla Sky Film: Vanilla Sky

 

Guess they wanted to avoid mentioning Give My Regards To Broad Street...

 

An improved deluxe edition of Paul's first solo album? Oh man, I'd love that!

 

On the one hand, so would I.

On the other hand, feels like a worrying precedent for what might follow it if he's potentially starting again with "improved" alternatives to the Archive Collections.

 

I still say a release of session takes would be the best way to go about it. All new, and not re-selling us what we already had with the Archive.

 

I really don’t see them working backwards with McCartney. A reissue at the very best if anything at all.

 

That would be useless, considering the 2017 reissue. But if MPL wants to throw away an opportunity to make some good money...

 

Well they've thrown away the Christmas market, given that rumours suggest that FP, LT/BTTE are oven ready.
