Kisses On The Bottom is a collection of standards Paul grew up listening to in his childhood as well as the two new McCartney compositions “My Valentine” and “Only Our Hearts.” With the help of Grammy Award-winning producer Tommy LiPuma and Diana Krall and her band–as well as guest appearances from Eric Clapton and Stevie Wonder, McCartney’s new album is a deeply personal journey through classic American compositions that, in some cases, a young Paul first heard his father perform on piano at home. This limited edition version includes the exclusive bonus tracks “Baby’s Request” and “My One And Only Love”. (more…)

McCartney’s debut into the world of ballet is a story of good and evil, love and war that takes place in the depths of the ocean. An hour long score featuring four stunning movements – “Ocean’s Kingdom,” “Hall of Dance,” “Imprisonment” and “Moonrise” – the ballet tells of a love story within the story of an underwater world whose people are threatened by the humans of Earth. A potently expressive and richly varied work, the score is Paul’s most challenging and emotionally complex yet.
Commissioned by New York City Ballet, the music draws on late Romanic composers while maintaining McCartney’s genius for simplicity and melody. The result is a breathtaking and imaginative orchestral work—one that proves yet another artistic facet of the legendary musician.

Paul McCartney Live Kisses finds the legendary musician recreating his album Kisses From the Bottom in the equally legendary Capitol Records studios where it was originally created, interspersed with some really nice talking head segments featuring Sir Paul himself as well as his collaborators and other hangers-on. One of the nicest segments here is a too brief look back at the history of the Capitol studios, including some kind of funny archival footage. Part of the charm of this outing is seeing Paul in such an evocative setting, helped by the use of some vintage microphones which lend an appropriately retro look to the performances.
The most remarkable thing about the actual performance sections and the album itself is Sir Paul’s rather unusual song choices. A lot of artists revisit The Great American Songbook, but few have shown the rather prevalent whimsy that McCartney has in this grouping of songs. While there are evergreens like the absolutely lovely “My One and Only Love” or “I’m Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter”, it’s a testament to McCartney’s fecund knowledge of pop music that we also get lesser known gems like “Home (When Shadows Fall)”. As becomes quite evident in some of the interview segments which act as interstitials between the songs, most if not all of the cover tunes included here have had a special place in McCartney’s heart for decades for a variety of reasons, and that emotional connection comes through loudly and clearly in the performances. McCartney’s voice may have started to crack a bit with age, but he manages to be a rather credible “crooner”, backed by one of the most elegant assemblages of musical giants imaginable.
The songs performed here are:
- 01. I’m Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a Letter
- 02. Home (When Shadows Fall)
- 03. It’s Only a Paper Moon
- 04. The Glory of Love
- 05. More I Cannot Wish You
- 06. We Three (My Echo, My Shadow and Me)
- 07. Ac-Cent-Tchuate the Positive
- 08. My Valentine
- 09. Always
- 10. My Very Good Friend the Milkman
- 11. Bye Bye Blackbird
- 12. Get Yourself Another Fool
- 13. My One and Only Love
