Description:
Limited 180gm vinyl LP pressing in gatefold jacket. Esoteric Recordings is pleased to announce the release of a newly remastered edition of the album, McGear by Mike McGear. Originally released in 1974, McGear was the second solo album by Mike McGear (McCartney) and was a more "serious" record than his work with the Liverpool satirical trio Scaffold, or his work with Roger McGough on the McGough & McGear album. Recorded at Strawberry studios in Stockport, (the musical home of the band 10cc), the album was produced by Paul McCartney (who also played on the album and co-wrote most of the material with Mike) and featured Linda McCartney and members of Wings, along with guests such as Paddy ("Pipes") Moloney of The Chieftains. The album featured a selection of tremendous songs such as 'Rainbow Lady', 'Simply Love You', 'Givin' Grease a Ride' and 'The Man Who Found God on the Moon'. McGear also featured an inspired cover of the Roxy Music song 'Sea Breezes', the evocative 'The Casket' and the hit single 'Leave It'.
Gatefold sleeve with fold-out Lyric insert. Made in the EU. Re-mastered from the original master tapes by Paschal Byrne at the Audio Archiving Company, Hertfordshire. Vinyl cut done at Abbey Road Studios by Christian Wright. 2019 artwork done by Phil Smee at Waldo's Design & Dream Emporium, St. Albans.
