Paul McCartney’s critically acclaimed 1989 album ‘Flowers in the Dirt’ is to be reissued next March, it has been confirmed.
Fans of Sir Paul McCartney will be excited to learn that the remastered version of his eighth solo studio album, which went to number one in the UK charts on its original release in 1989, includes previously unreleased demos recorded with Elvis Costello.
“I hadn’t listened to them in ages but when I did I knew we had to put them out,” says the ex-Beatles star.
“We made a little tape of them and sent them to Elvis, who loved them too. We said we should put out an EP or something and now the moment’s finally arrived.”
There will be various versions released of the remastered album, including an exciting DVD edition that will come with extra demos, b-sides, remixes, single edits. It will also have three new short films, music videos and the 1989 documentary ‘Put It There’.
