Beatles fans have patiently awaited a video compilation from the vaults of Paul McCartney and with the 2007 triple DVD set of The McCartney Years, their patience is rewarded. Going way back to the start with the video for ‘70s “Maybe I’m Amazed,” the three discs cover a remarkable, prodigious output from Paul’s archives. The 406 minute DVD set proves that McCartney, as one quarter of the Beatles magic was also the fab four’s built in A&R producer and multi-instrumentalist / arranger and was way ahead of the pack when it came to recording that hit single and companion video. With over 40 videos to choose from, the triple DVD brings it into the now with McCartney’s headlining performance at the 2004 Glastonbury Festival in the U.K. and the Creating Chaos At Abbey Road documentary of his 2005 album of nearly the same name. While we await dual disc releases and proper mono remasters of the Beatles, The McCartney Years will do fine. www.paulmccartney.com
