Paul McCartney Issues “Flaming Pie” Collector’s Edition

Paul McCartney is continuing his Archive Collection series with its thirteenth installment. This time he revisits Flaming Pie in a limited 4LP/5CD/2DVD Collector’s Edition that includes a remastered version of the original album and 32 bonus tracks of home recordings, demos, rough mixes, and more.

“Originally released May 5, 1997, Flaming Pie ended a four-year gap between McCartney studio albums and was shaped by the experience of recording The Beatles Anthology series,” the liner notes explain. “The album would become Paul’s most commercially successful release of the ‘90s.”

In addition to the music, the Collector’s Edition includes a 128-page book and two DVDs with mini-documentaries, music promos, EPKs, artwork, and interviews. It will have a marbled art print portfolio of six silkscreened Linda McCartney art prints and “The Ballad of the Skeletons,” which was the bassist’s 1996 collaboration with Allen Ginsberg, Philip Glass, and Lenny Kaye. That project is being released for the first time on vinyl and cut at 45 RPM with vinyl etching and poster.

Flaming Pie is out now in the Collector’s Edition as well as a Deluxe Box Set and digital versions (iTunes and Amazon MP3).
