There has been a lot of speculation about the forthcoming documentary film, Paul McCartney – Man On The Run. Would there, or wouldn’t there, be an accompanying soundtrack release on physical media?

Director Morgan Neville dropped a hint a few weeks ago saying yes, there would be one. But many fans figured he was simply referring to last year’s Wings triple LP band retrospective. Well, it turns out he was correct as the McCartney camp has today announced a single LP (or CD) 12-song Man On The Run soundtrack album. There are just three rarities on it though alongside more standard back-catalogue songs which all collectors no doubt already have – probably many times over. The rarities are ‘Silly Love Songs (Demo)’; ‘Gotta Sing Gotta Dance’ (from the 1973 James Paul McCartney TV special); and a version of ‘Live and Let Die’ (taken from the live video, Rockshow)

The version that is already sold out is a limited “New York Taxi Yellow” edition, pressed by Third Man Records. This was limited to just 3,500 copies:
