but BOY,
it never took long for any Paul Mc C. fan(atic) to go broke collecting every
permutation
of his multiple-issue (not to mention format!) albums and especially single
releases between, very roughly speaking, "Flowers In The Dirt" and "Off The
Ground" (vinyl, Collectors Edition vinyl box sets, 45s, 12-inch, CD-EP's and
even cassingles with ever-changing B-sides and bonus trax, limited-edition
and "official bootleg" releases, "Highlights" single-disc edits, imports,
audiophile
remasters, "dub" mixes, "video" mixes.....)
I've got EIGHT different versions of "Figure Of Eight"....not the least of
which is a 12" single with an etching of eight images of some famous French
deuriograph on the B-side. I also have a 7" single box of "This One" that
comes with a cardboard container, 6 postage stamp sized stickers of each of
McCartney's band members and 6 post-cards with the same images on them. I
only bought this because the B-side is a studio remake of "Long And Winding
Road".....oh, and what do you know....it has strings and female choir on it
too! Methinks Mr. McCartney doth protest too much!
Jaimie Vernon,
Bullseye
