A crazy mind is content with underachievement

Or is it a cover (or a jacket) as in days gone by - at least to a circle of musical interludes it could be considered that way. 

You were all warned prior to questioning the sanity of oneself.  This SOS came on the date a week forward rather than backwards of the twenty zero in the month known in Nancy, France as août.

What happens next is a bout, but not a boxing match, of sense filled ramblings with creative finger fish. The alternative and misunderstood side is threatening to come up after being kept under cover by herds of fragranced pie - noticed and unwanted but still desired somewhat.

Reviews, shoes, world turning vinyl, vibrant dancing beats of ancient youngness will follow and then explode a shy and retired man of fire to the overground of the sedative underground. He will be forced through (in a peacefully way) a batch of smoking hot fibre away from wandering lustful ships that sail through the day.

A critical and much praiseful look at a hidden world is now all set....just as soon as the Plastic man reveals his intentions.

New Paul McCartney album full details


Not particularly fussed about this album, but down at the bottom 2 bits to get a little excited about - a new version of Baby's Request perhaps? Certainly at 3.30 it is 30 seconds longer than the Back to the Egg version. And what is this more exclusive album new? More on 'Kisses' or something else....the rock album? the Ram remaster?

‘Kisses On The Bottom’
Paul’s tribute to personal favourites & two new self penned compositions out February 6th/7th 
On December 19th 2011 Paul announced that February 2012 would see the release of his brand new studio album. Scores of fans then streamed the new original track ‘My Valentine’, many assuming it would be the new record’s title track.  While a few Twitter hints have been dropped and rumours have run rampant, Paul puts an end to speculation today, confirming that the album will indeed be titled ‘Kisses On The Bottom’.
Paul has apparently had some fun with his choice of album title—while causing some confusion amongst those who have historically subjected his every move to microscopic scrutiny (with many fixating on an anatomical interpretation!). The phrase ‘Kisses On The Bottom,’ however, actually comes from the album’s opener ‘I’m Gonna Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter’. Originally made a big hit by Fats Waller in 1935, the song opens with the lines ‘I’m gonna sit right down and write myself a letter and make believe it came from you.  I’m gonna write words oh so sweet.  They’re gonna knock me off of my feet.  A lot of kisses on the bottom , I’ll be glad I got ‘em’.
‘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.  The full tracklisting reveals that Paul has been both reverent and adventurous in his song choices.

The album artwork concept was conceived by Jonathan Schofield (Visual Director at Stella McCartney) and designed by Matthew Cooper (who has worked with artists such as Arctic Monkeys and Franz Ferdinand).  Paul was photographed by his daughter Mary McCartney for the album sleeve.
