Paul McCartney III Red LP Vinyl Limited Edition. Only 3000 UK Copies Printed, Now sold out.  Condition is "New". Dispatched with Royal Mail Signed For® 2nd Class.

Note: When originally advertised on the Paul McCartney website, it was stated that this release was “‘Limited to 3000 copies worldwide”.  In reality, the first 3000 numbers were used by Third Man Records for their US Red version. The next 6200 numbers (i.e. 3001 to 9200) were used by Optimal Media in Germany and numbered from 3001 to 9200. These German pressed copies were sold via the various EU outlets. Therefore, there were 9200 Red Vinyl copies across the globe and not the 3000 as advertised by PMc.

50 years following the release of his self-titled first solo album McCartney, featuring Paul playing every instrument and writing and recording every song, Paul McCartney will release McCartney III on December 11th. Paul hadn’t planned to release an album in 2020, but in the isolation of 'Rockdown,' he soon found himself fleshing out some existing musical sketches and creating even more new ones. Before long an eclectic collection of spontaneous songs would become McCartney III: a stripped-back, self-produced and, quite literally, solo work marking the opening of a new decade, in the tradition of 1970’s McCartney and 1980’s McCartney II. Recorded earlier this year in Sussex (UK), McCartney III is mostly built from live takes of Paul on vocals and guitar or piano, overdubbing his bass playing, drumming, etc. atop that foundation. McCartney III spans a vast and intimate range of modes and moods, from soul-searching to wistful, from playful to raucous and all points between — captured with some of the same gear from Paul’s Rude Studio used as far back as 1971 Wings sessions. And Paul's array of vintage instruments he played on the new album have an even more storied history, including Bill Black of Elvis Presley's original trio's double bass alongside Paul's own iconic Hofner violin bass, and a mellotron from Abbey Road Studios used on Beatles recordings, to name but a few. Just as McCartney’s 1970 release marked Paul’s return to basics in the wake of the biggest band break-up in musical history, and the 1980 avant-garde masterpiece McCartney II rose from the ashes of Wings, McCartney III finds Paul back on his own, turning unexpected circumstances into a personal snapshot of a timeless artist at a unique point in history.

Combined Postage
TO UK ADDRESSES: I am very happy to combine postage for two or more items. For delivery to UK addresses, all you need to do is add the items you want to your shopping basket and then select Request total from seller. I will then send you an invoice with the new combined and reduced postage cost.

TO INTERNATIONAL ADDRESSES: Unfortunately, international sales via eBays GSP (Global Selling Programme) will not allow combined postage. Therefore, the only way I can offer this service is to relist the items you wish to purchase as a Job Lot/Bundle at the combined price. I will then add the revised postal charge for sending the items in a single package. This should reduce your overall postage charges whilst still utilising the security of eBays GSP (Global Selling Programme). If you would like to go ahead with this option, please email me the items you would like to purchase. I will then end these items on eBay and relist together as a single listing that you can purchase.
