20
YEARS AFTER THE FROG SONG MACCA HUMS NEW SINGLE FOR KIDS
More
on: www.paulmccartney.com
PAUL
McCARTNEY is to release his first single for children in 20
years - recording a flipside to the Frog Song.
Two decades after the original frog song, We
All Stand Together, went to No.3 in the UK charts, Paul is
releasing a new kids song - Tropic Island Hum - for the children
of the children who bought the nursery favourite in 1984.
Tropic Island Hum is the title track of a new children’s
animation film created by Paul McCartney.
Said Paul: “I don’t often write songs deliberately
for children but we made this new film for kids and the film
needed a song. As a songwriter I’m always interested
in trying to write music in different styles, so I took the
challenge of trying to write another one for kids”.
A limited edition single will be issued by EMI Records on
September 20th. The CD will feature Tropic Island Hum along
with the original recording of We All Stand Together, to mark
the 20th anniversary of the long-ago deleted amphibian anthem.
Both songs are written by Paul McCartney and sung by a chorus
of animals.
The film Tropic Island Hum will introduce a new cartoon character,
Wirral the squirrel. The short film, which follows the cheeky
Scouse squirrel on an adventure to an island animal sanctuary,
will be released on DVD on September 27th as one of a package
of three cartoons created by Paul and titled
Paul
McCartney: The Music And Animation Collection.
The
collection will also feature the award-winning Rupert And
The Frog Song and another Macca frog flick, Tuesday.
The
CD single Tropic Island Hum is the first release from Paul
McCartney since he recently headlined the Glastonbury Festival.
Said Paul: “I shouldn’t imagine that too many of
the Glastonbury bands would follow performing Helter Skelter
there with releasing a single for children by a cartoon squirrel,
but it’s ringing the changes like this which keeps me
interested in the possibilities of life”.
Release

2003-September
NEW
BEATLES-release: "LET IT BE...NAKED",
as
it was meant to be...
Release: November 17th, 2003.
Here's
the Beates official website press-release about the new release...
---
AT
LAST AS NATURE INTENDED THE BEATLES' "LET IT BE...NAKED"
At
last revealed - The Beatles album that has taken more than 30
years to finish, Let It Be...Naked, just the bare sound of the
band inside The Beatles. Let It BeŠNaked is the no frills, back-to-basics
album that The Beatles first set out to make back in 1969 -
but which was never released as they intended, the band back
to the bone. Now, through the smart digital technology of Abbey
Road studios, the never-heard band's take of the original sessions
will be finally released worldwide by EMI Records in November.
Naked is Let It Be brought right up to now for the '1 Generation',
de-mixed and re-mixed, un-dubbed of orchestration, choirs and
effects and stripped-back to the raw to reveal The Beatles simply
as what they were very best at being just a great band. "If
we'd have had today's technology back then, it would sound like
this because this is the noise we made in the studio",
said Paul McCartney "It's all exactly as it was in the
room. You're right there now". "When I first heard
it, it was really uplifting. It took you back again to the times
when we were this band, the Beatle band", said Ringo Starr.
When
The Beatles first set out to make the album in 1969, they intended
to record an album that would be a return to live performance
of just the bare necessities of the band, no studio effects
or overdubbing of voices or instruments would be allowed. However,
caught in the turmoil of the break-up of the band, the album
was re-produced by Phil Spector and never released as The Beatles
had originally meant it to sound. Until now. Let It BeŠNaked's
track listing differs from the 1970 release; background dialogue,
'Dig It' and 'Maggie Mae' have been taken off the album and
'Don't Let Me Down' has been added to the running order, which
now is as follows: Get Back, Dig APony, For You Blue, The Long
And Winding Road, Two Of Us, I've Got A Feeling, One After 909,
Don't Let Me Down, I Me Mine, Across The Universe, Let It Be.
Let It BeŠNaked will be issued together with a bonus fly-on-the-wall
disc that features extracts from tapes of The Beatles at the
time of first making the Let It Be album and movie in the Sixties.
The 20-minute bonus disc is a unique insight into The Beatles
at work in rehearsal and in the studios in January 1969. Let
It BeŠNaked will also come with a booklet that features historic
photography of the recording sessions and extracts of band dialogue
from the original booklet that first accompanied early copies
of the 1970 album.
Released
worldwide from November 17th, Let It BeŠNaked is the sound of
The Beatles as nature intended; raw and rocking. "The music
always surpassed any bullshit we were going through; once the
count-in happened we turned back into those brothers and musicians."
RINGO STARR "It's just us playing, in our best voices,
it's very honest".
GEORGE
HARRISON "For all our success The Beatles were always a
great little band. When we sat down to play, we played good".
PAUL
McCARTNEY "In spite of all things, The Beatles could really
play music together"
