The cover artwork for Sir Paul McCartney's upcoming album 'Egypt Station,' set for release on Sept. 7. |
Egypt Station marks McCartney's first new album since 2013's New.
In a statement about his forthcoming LP, McCartney, 76, says: "I liked the words 'Egypt Station.' It reminded me of the album albums we used to make ...'Egypt Station' starts off at the station on the first song and then each song is like a different station. So it gave us some idea to base all the songs around that. It think of it as a dream location that the music emanates from."
I'm really enjoying both new songs, and it's great McCartney has shared a lovely ballad ("I Don't Know") and bona fide rocker ("Come On to Me"), the latter enhanced with a driving beat and artful arrangement.
