Paul's twenty-eigth solo single.
Credited to "Paul McCartney"
The third single to be released to promote the "McCartney II" album, although the B-side was another one of the
unreleased recordings from the solo sessions.
This was Paul's ONLY single to be released on 12" ONLY ... and even then at a limited amount
of just 25,000, not surpringly it failed to chart ... but it's scarcity makes it his most valuable "normal" release at £25
a copy.
The B-side is the longest song Paul has ever officially released at 10 and a half minutes long !
The single was released in a picture sleeve, with a drawing of Paul by Hipgnosis artist, Jeff Cummins, on the front (with
additional "artwork"(?) by Paul, and the B-side photograph (an excellent shot of Paul) was NOT taken by Linda, but was
taken by David Thorpe.
There is also a rare promo of "Temporary Secretary", which is a ONE-SIDED 7" and no picture sleeve ... but is worth about £40.
