PAUL McCARTNEY
Paul McCartney - The 7inch Singles Box [2022] (80 x Singles)
The new Paul McCartney box set includes more than 50 years of singles – 65 re-creations of previous 7-inch releases and 15 new ones, plus a book – in a wood crate that comes with straps to make it easier to lift. Have silly love songs ever weighed so much? It’s the ultimate way to preserve, and sell, a music format that was originally intended to be disposable.
All told, The 7” Singles Box makes a solid case for McCartney as the auteur of the three-minute pop song. In The Beatles, McCartney helped remake the album as an ambitious art form – but he remains devoted enough to singles to keep a jukebox in his London office. By some measures, he’s the most successful singles artist of all time: The Beatles are No. 1 on Billboard’s ranking of the top-charting Hot 100 acts of all time and McCartney is No. 13 as a solo artist (including his work with Wings). When it came out, “Mull of Kintyre” was the best-selling single in U.K. history – and it may not even be one of the dozen best songs here.
Appropriately for its focus on singles, this set offers a refreshingly warts-and-all picture of McCartney’s post-Beatles career. (McCartney owns the rights to his solo recordings, so the decision was his, and it’s a good one.) At a time when most of his ’60s and ’70s peers are editing their legacies, McCartney includes everything, from the sublime (“Band on the Run,” “My Brave Face,” a live version of “Maybe I’m Amazed” and much more) to the silly (“Ode to a Koala Bear;” “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reggae,” the bass-heavy B-side of “Wonderful Christmastime”).
More than any other major artist, McCartney proved that pop music could be both artistically ambitious and awfully silly – sometimes even both at once – and succeed on its own terms either way. Not all of these songs were received well when they were released, but many deserve another listen – especially as singles. So does the music McCartney continues to make. As big as this box is, “it doesn’t include my latest single,” McCartney writes in the foreword, “because I haven’t written that one yet.” (Billboard)

Holy Cr%P! Many, many thx, BB! While I understand some of the vitriol thrown his way, just a quick scan of the songs included here include so many gems that its hard to believe that there's an entire collection of amazing songs that precede this.
ReplyDeleteHi pmac.
DeleteThis is a brilliant set. Enjoy!
Cheers.
Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Gummo.
DeleteCheers.
I prefer him with his old band. The one before Wings.
ReplyDeleteThanks BB
Hi lemonflag,
DeleteMcCartney never sounded like The Beatles to me, but without him The Beatles would not have flourished as they did. This set just shows his brilliance. Beatles are the best.
Cheers.
It' an interesting listen one after another in order!
ReplyDeleteI have this and have'nt gone through the whole list in a while,
Some Brilliant ones in here and then theres the ....."Pauls granny music" John Lennon
Many are timeless and I'm sure will always be with us.
Lennon next!?
Cheers
Stephen
Thanks Stephen,
DeleteIt is a great set to listen too in one sitting. I have also done this and still find new things to like about his music.
Cheers.
Oh Wow, this is wonderful (big fan of PM, saw him live in 2017, amazing concert) thank you so much BB.
