This is a BUNDLE for all five albums on SHM-CD: McCartney (1970) Ram (1971) Wildlife (1971) Red Rose Speedway (1973) Band on the Run (1973) Each are presented as vinyl replica CDs with the usual exacting standards from Japan including OBI-strip, extra booklet with Japanese lyrics, 'rice paper' sleeve for disc protection and re-sealable outer clear sleeve.

Band on the Run features the 9-track UK version of the album (no Helen Wheels). There are only 120 of these bundles available. McCartney Released in 1970, a month before The Beatles’ swansong Let It Be, McCartney was Paul’s first solo album. Notable for the fact that he performed all instruments and vocals himself, aside from some backing vocals performed by Linda, it’s an album rich in experimentation, and the original home of ‘Maybe I’m Amazed’. 2011 remaster. Includes the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics Ram Released in 1971, the only album credited to both Paul and Linda McCartney, RAM reached Number 1 in the UK and stayed in the US Top 10 for five months. Recording after he’d left The Beatles and before the formation of Wings, Paul initially flew with Linda to New York to record the songs they’d written but arrived without a band. 2012 remaster. Includes the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics. Wild Life Released in 1971, like many debut albums, Wings’ Wild Life wasn’t a real reflection of what was to come, its guiding ethos being Paul’s intention to record the entire piece quickly. Taking just two weeks, Wild Life was about spontaneity: the opening track ‘Mumbo’ was recorded in one take. 2018 remaster. Includes 18-page booklet and the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics. Red Rose Speedway Released in 1973, with the addition of Irish guitarist Henry McCullough, Wings plugged away on their second album Red Rose Speedway through most of 1972, a year in which they issued no album (a first for Paul since The Beatles’ debut). By December they’d accumulated a vast amount of songs, though the idea of releasing a double-album was eventually rejected. 2018 remaster. Includes 6-page booklet and the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics Band On The Run Released in 1973, Paul’s fifth album since the break up of The Beatles, Band on the Run was made under difficult circumstances: band members Denny Seiwell and Henry McCullough left before recordings began in Lagos, Nigeria – which itself proved a challenging environment to work in. Despite the setbacks, Paul, Linda and Denny Laine persevered and Band on the Run – complete with its famous celebrity-packed cover art – proved a triumph. The album topped the US chart three separate times; in the UK, it was the biggest selling studio album of 1974 and spent a miraculous 124 weeks on the chart. 2010 remaster. Includes miniature poster, inner-sleeve and the white booklet featuring the Japanese translations of the lyrics.
