Beatles producer Sir George Martin saluted by major new documentary

A new 90-minute documentary about legendary Beatles record producer Sir George Martin will premiere on Britain's BBC-2 TV network over the Easter weekend. The film is titled "Produced by George Martin" and includes new footage with Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr.

"Produced by George Martin" will air on BBC-2 on Saturday April 23rd, which by coincidence is celebrated in England (and many other European nations) as "St. George's Day," a day commemorated by several nations and cities of whom St. George is the patron saint.

The film documents the six-decade professional history of the 85-year-old knighted record producer who discovered and signed the Beatles in June 1962, and then produced them throughout their recording career, and who also produced several albums with Paul McCartney and Wings. The film features specially-shot new sequences with Sir Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr. Other interviewees include vocalist Cilla Black and Monty Python's Michael Palin.

Londoners may see a sneak preview of the film when it is screened this coming Wednesday (April 13th) at the British Film Institute's flagship National Film Theatre on London's South Bank.

There are preliminary plans for the film to be televised in other countries including the USA in 2012. There are also discussions for the film to be screened at prestigious international film festivals.

In addition to chronicling his pioneering production work with the Beatles, the film looks at his extensive producing experience before and after the Beatles. This includes his early work with classical music - and with comedic performers such as Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan, The Goons and Beyond The Fringe. And a focus on some of his wide-ranging post-Beatles work including film scores and album production for many major musicians.

Among the many artists produced by Sir George during his sixty-year career have been: friends and contemporaries of the Beatles such as Cilla Black, Billy J. Kramer & The Dakotas, Gerry & The Pacemakers, The Fourmost, Mary Hopkin; rock and pop artists such as Jeff Beck, Ultravox, Cheap Trick, John McLaughlin & The Mahavishnu Orchestra, Billy Preston, Sinead O'Connor, Peter Gabriel, Sting, Elton John, Gary Brooker, Jimmy Webb, Neil Sedaka, Stevie Wonder and America; jazz artists such as: Ella Fitzgerald, Cleo Laine, Johnny Dankworth, Humphrey Lyttelton; and vocalists such as: Matt Monro, Kenny Rogers, Tom Jones, Shirley Bassey and Celine Dion.

McCartney & McCartney II Get Deluxe Treatment

We are pleased to announce McCartney and McCartney II as the next releases in the Paul McCartney Archive Collection on June 13th, 2011 (14th June USA). Heralded as one of the most beloved solo debuts of all time, McCartney, the smash # 1 album, originally released April of 1970, yielded the timeless tracks "Every Night" and "Junk" along with the immortal classic "Maybe I’m Amazed." McCartney II originally issued in May of 1980 was McCartney's return to solo work after nine years touring and having released several massively successful albums with Wings. Reaching #1 in the UK, and #3 in the U.S., the album produced enduring classics such as "Coming Up," "Waterfalls," & "Temporary Secretary."

Paul personally supervised all aspects of these two reissues. The remastering work was done at Abbey Road using the same team who recently remastered the complete Beatles' catalogue.

Both McCartney and McCartney II will be available in a variety of formats originating with the single disc digitally remastered Standard Edition version of each album. (Digitally available in USA only)

McCartney will also be made available as a 2-disc (2 CD) Special Edition featuring the original remastered album plus seven bonus audio tracks including the previously unreleased outtakes "Suicide" and "Don’t Cry Baby" plus a rare live 1979 recording of "Maybe I’m Amazed". For collectors, the reissue will additionally be made available as a lavishly packaged 3 disc (2 CD, 1 DVD) Deluxe Edition which includes an exclusive bonus DVD featuring rare and previously unseen footage, an extraordinary 128-page hard bound book containing many exclusive and unpublished photos by Paul and Linda McCartney, original album artwork, downloadable hi-res audio versions of the remastered album and bonus audio tracks, an illustrated history of the making of the album, and expanded track by track information for the two audio discs as well as detailed historical information on the film content.

McCartney II will also be made available as a 2-disc (2 CD) Special Edition featuring the original remastered album plus eight bonus tracks including B-Sides and alternative versions. The bonus audio CD includes the #1 hit "Coming Up (Live At Glasgow, 1979)" and holiday perennial "Wonderful Christmastime."

The lovingly packaged 4 disc (3 CD, 1 DVD) Deluxe Edition of McCartney II not only includes an exclusive bonus DVD featuring rare and previously unseen footage (including performances of 'Coming Up' and the new video for the unreleased track 'Blue Sway') but includes an additional eight rare bonus audio tracks exclusive to this edition. Additionally, the McCartney II deluxe edition contains an extraordinary 128-page hard bound book featuring many previously unpublished photos by Linda McCartney, original album and single artwork, downloadable hi-res audio versions of the remastered album, an illustrated history of the making of the album, and expanded track by track information for all three audio discs plus detailed historical information on the film content.

Both original remastered albums and bonus audio content will also be issued as 2 disc 180gm audiophile vinyl editions which will come with an MP3 download of all included audio. Lastly, the special and deluxe versions of McCartney and McCartney II will be made available digitally worldwide.

The musical achievement of McCartney and McCartney II are noted in the annals of music history as they serve as bookends to the historic first chapter of McCartney’s solo career.

McCartney & McCartney II mark the second and third releases from the Paul McCartney Archive Collection, an ambitious reissue program that encompasses 41 years of cherished, classic material from the most successful songwriter and recording artist in music history. In November of 2010, the inaugural title in the Archive Collection, Paul McCartney & Wings' 1973 classic Band on the Run was released to worldwide acclaim.

8 Reasons To Celebrate Wings

In the late 1970s, there'd been a joke that Paul McCartney had been waiting to use for the inevitable break-up of his band: "Wings fold." "But as it turned out, Wings didn't actually fold," McCartney later said. "It sort of dissolved, like sugar in tea."

Sugar may not have been the most appropriate additive. On April 27, 1981, Denny Laine, fed up with being underpaid and underappreciated, announced he was leaving the group. Drummer Steve Holly and guitarist Laurence Juber learned of this through the newspaper. When they phoned McCartney, he said, "Yeah, well, I've been meaning to call you..."

Ten years, seven albums and five line-up changes after Wings had lifted off, it was all over. McCartney was relieved. He would later describe his emotional state through the decade as "hanging in there". After shouldering the blame for The Beatles' break-up, it couldn't have been much fun playing the critics' favorite whipping boy. Even Wings' masterpiece Band On The Run was met with a kind of grudging acknowledgement that Paul might still have a little Fabness up his sleeve.

But what if Paul had never been a Beatle? Wings would probably have been hailed as one of the most important and beloved bands of the 1970s. Thirty years on, it's time to admit that they probably were anyway. While not forgetting embarrassing missteps like Bip Bop and Cook Of The House, here are eight among many reasons to celebrate Paul McCartney's other band:

1. Wild Life wasn't a total disaster

Never was there such a critical pile-on as when Wings released their 1971 debut Wild Life: "Third rate suburban pop"... "Vacuous and flaccid"... "McCartney is a spent force"... Ouch, ouch, ouch. Twenty years later, even Paul agreed. "I admit, you must like me to like the album." And yet, buried near the end of this rough-and-ready disc is Tomorrow. A vocal tour de force, with Paul's casual rasp climbing through lush oohs and aahs to a thrilling '50s doo-wop climax, it's worth the price of admission.

2. Paul's drumming on the Band On The Run LP

Back in The Beatles' Hamburg days, Tony Sheridan's drummer once got sick and Paul filled in for a week. In the studio, Paul had also occasionally taken Ringo's place, notably on Dear Prudence and The Ballad Of John And Yoko. But when Denny Seiwell quit Wings the night before the band flew to Lagos to record their new album, Paul became a full-time drummer by default. Supplementing a small kit with what sound like cardboard boxes and bottles, he plays exquisitely musical parts that groove without calling attention to themselves. Check out the way he uses the toms on Band On The Run.

3. Jimmy McCulloch's solo on Junior's Farm

"Take me down, Jimmy!" With those four words, McCartney unleashed Wings' new lead guitarist Jimmy McCulloch on the world. At 21, the boy wonder was already a seasoned pro, having played with Thunderclap Newman and Blue. On Junior's Farm, McCulloch peels off smokin' hot country-blues licks that ooze attitude. Listen for the way he bends the string at 1:16. It's the guitar equivalent of a scream by Otis Redding.

4. Denny Laine's Finest Moment

"I'm kind of an odd-job man in this group," Denny Laine said of his role in Wings. With McCartney at the helm, one job that was well-covered was the songwriting. Yet as the band matured, Paul became more democratic, letting the members have a track or two on each album. Laine's first contribution, No Words, co-written with McCartney, is Band On The Run's hidden treasure. And with its slide guitar harmonies and major-minor shifts, it's also strangely reminiscent of a George Harrison song.

5. Those tossed off ditties

As far back as the White Album, McCartney had been sprinkling brief throwaway tunes into the mix. Charming palate cleansers, these gave the listener a moment to refresh before the next song proper. From the Wings catalogue, there are such winning examples as We're Open Tonight and Backwards Traveler. But none are more endearing than Red Rose Speedway's Single Pigeon.

6. Linda pulled her weight

The infamous - and most likely bogus - "Hey Jude" tape ruined any chance of Linda McCartney being taken seriously. But she could sing. Listen to her voice, up in the harmony mix on Silly Love Songs or Helen Wheels. There was no digital pitch correct back then. She also had good ideas as a songwriter, the best of which was the reggae-flavoured bridge on Live And Let Die. Here's Linda doing a little casual harmonizing on Bluebird.

7. Tony Dorsey's horn arrangements on Venus And Mars

One of the best things that happened to Wings during their 1974 working vacation in Nashville was meeting Tony Dorsey. A trombonist/horn arranger best-known for his work with Joe Tex, Dorsey joined Wings for Venus And Mars, and the subsequent world tour. On the bluesy Letting Go and Call Me Back Again, his arrangements added brassy exclamation marks and jazzy counterpoints that perfectly matched Macca's raw vocals.

8. Back To The Egg

Wings' final album was greeted with more invective than any of their six previous releases. "Just about the sorriest grab bag of dreck in recent memory," griped one critic. Even McCartney, when later asked if it was a concept album, joked that it was a "bomb-cept". That said, minus a track or two, this album is bursting with great stuff. The driving pop of Getting Closer. The disco-fied R& strut of Arrow Through Me. And one of Paul's best vocal performances of the '70s on After The Ball / Million Miles.
