  Red Rose Speedway - From book

Originally in 1973 Paul's fourth "solo" album release - this version was the twelfth in the Paul McCartney Archive Collection
For detail of the original 1973 album see here: Red Rose Speedway

The December 2018 archive re-issue was released in multiple formats:
Special Edition 2-CD - the remastered 9-track album on disc one. 17 bonus tracks on disc two.
Deluxe Edition Six discs - 3-CD/2-DVD/1xBlu-Ray;
                          The original 9-track album remastered at Abbey Road,
                          Two bonus audio discs; one with the original proposed double alum, the other 17 unreleased demos and non-album singles,
                          A DVD featuring James Paul McCartney, plus live and music videos, some previously unreleased and exclusive content,
                          A DVD featuring "The Bruce McMouse Show",
                          A Blu-Ray featuring "The Bruce McMouse Show" with 5.1 audio,
                          a 128-page book,
                          a 64-page photo book capturing Wings In Morocco,
                          a Folio containing Paul's original sketches and dialogue for Bruce McMouse, plus other unseen memorabilia (and a download link).
Remastered vinyl 2-LP version containing the contents of the special edition.

Released on the same day as the "Wild Life" Archive Collection which did not chart, this set did enter the chart.
14th December 2018 - Just one week in the chart at a lowly no. 82.

The longest set in the Archive Collection so far, by a long way, at almost six and a half hours.
Although there is quite a bit of repetition - the first album twice, and the Mouse film twice.
Very thick sturdy glossy box though and feels the slickest Archive production so far.
