Description:

The eleventh release in the Paul McCartney Archive Collection, personally supervised by Paul McCartney. -

Paul McCartney & Wings - "Wild Life (50th Anniversary)" [Half-Speed Master LP] 50th anniversary reissue of Paul McCartney & Wings' 1971 debut album, Wild Life, which found Paul once again redefining his post-Beatles creative identity, this time beginning his tenure as a founding member of Wings. A rollicking left turn from it's predecessors, the album was recorded in barely more than a week, with more than half of the songs captured in a single take. The end result would be eight songs running the gamut from joyous freewheeling jams to proto-chamber pop to spare introspective musings - all bristling with a raw, jagged energy akin to the grungiest of garage bands - whether on the careening blues-rock rave-up of opener "Mumbo," a reggae-tinged reimagining of Mickey & Sylvia's "Love Is Strange," or the plaintive and heart wrenching ballad "Dear Friend." Limited Edition Indie Exclusive pressed using half-speed mastering on a specially adapted Neumann VMS-80 lathe.

50th Anniversary Half-Speed Mastering limited edition reissue. Comes with a Dark Green 'Obi' strip, a plain Yellow Inner sleeve and an (A5-size) 'Half-speed Mastering' Certificate. Originally released in December 1971. This edition was cut by Miles Showell at half speed using high resolution transfers of the original master tapes at Abbey Road Studios, 23rd July 2021. This half-speed master closely references the 2018 remaster by Alex Wharton and Steve Orchard. It was made as a vinyl specific transfer in high resolution and without digital peak limiting for the best possible reproduction. Original Release ? &© 1971 MPL Communications Inc.
