Paul McCartney – Paul Is Live – Double 180 Gram Vinyl Records
Paul Is Live is a live album by Paul McCartney, released in 1993.
Paul Is Live was released on November 8, 1993. The album features recordings from various concerts during Paul McCartney’s New World Tour in 1993.
The band lineup during the New World Tour included: Paul McCartney (vocals, bass, guitar, piano), Linda McCartney (keyboards, backing vocals), Robbie McIntosh (guitar), Hamish Stuart (guitar), Paul “Wix” Wickens (keyboards) and Blair Cunningham (drums).
Paul Is Live includes live renditions of songs from different phases of McCartney’s career, including his time with The Beatles, Wings, and his solo work.
The album cover features a photo of Paul McCartney with his dog, Martha. The image is a play on the infamous “Paul Is Dead” rumors that circulated during The Beatles’ career. The title, “Paul Is Live,” is a playful reference to the “Paul Is Dead” conspiracy theory, which claimed that Paul McCartney had died in the late 1960s.
The album includes live versions of songs such as “Drive My Car,” “Can’t Buy Me Love,” “Let It Be,” and “Hey Jude.”
Paul Is Live received mixed reviews from critics. Some praised the energetic performances and the selection of songs, while others felt it didn’t offer a significant departure from McCartney’s previous live albums. The album performed moderately well commercially, but it didn’t reach the same level of success as some of McCartney’s earlier live releases.
While not as prominent in McCartney’s discography as some other live albums, Paul Is Live remains a document of his 1993 tour and provides fans with live versions of classic songs.
Paul Is Live captures a moment in Paul McCartney’s solo career, showcasing live renditions of iconic songs. The album’s title and cover art playfully reference the “Paul Is Dead” rumors that had circulated decades earlier.
