there is a tribute album being released in November that is a tribute to
Sir Paul McCartney, and features Macca covers by other artists...
there will be a single cd disc,a double and also a 'boxset', the boxset contains
three discs and a 'making of...' dvd apparently...
now, im not a huge fan of covers but occasionally we do find the odd little gem
that is fantastic, judging by the song and artist list, this will be a pretty darn good
set of covers....and why not, Macca is afterall, the most successful songwriter in the history
of popular music and already, there have literally been, many thousands of covers of his songs
already recorded....

the tracklisting is,IMO, pretty impressive, and the covers are actually played, by artists
whom i think have chosen the songs that best suit them...
artists include:
KISS,Bob Dylan,Steve Miller,Jeff Lynne, Yusuf(cat stevens),Cure, Roger Daltry and Dr.John to name a few...
for a complete track/artist breakdown click on the link to the NME official webpage....
