Parkinson (1999)

Paul opens up like never before with an interviewer like no other in this December 2, 1999 special. The result: a frank and relaxed chat on everything from coping with Linda's death to the secret of song writing. Look out for an early, in-progress version of Your Loving Flame (with David Gilmour on guitar) and the only performance till date of New York Cabaret Song.

Run Devil Run videos

I intended this to be a music-only blog, but I'm tempted to post some videos. Here are two from Macca's 1999 album Run Devil Run.

No Other Baby
(avi, 41.4 mb)

The Piano Tape

Another perennial favourite over the years, this one finds Paul sitting down at his piano sometime in 1978 and running through a whole bunch of songs, some of which he would record decades later, and some never at all. The sound quality isn't good because only a portable recorder was used, but it's a great insight into the creative process of the great Macca!
