COLLECT ‘EM ALL Series. Official Bootleg Edition.
BBC ELECTRIC PROMS is a relatively new festival organized and hosted by the British Broadcasting Company. In only the second year they managed to present Paul McCartney for this full length show at the Roundhouse in Camden, London. The artists who participate for the Electric Proms are encouraged to do something different and out of the ordinary. McCartney, like other artists, plays some of the songs accompanied by the BBC Concert Orchestra along with his back up band: Paul Wickens (keyboards), Rusty Anderson and Brian Ray (guitars), and Abe Laboriel Jr. (drums). Unlike the secret gigs with “Drive My Car” or the iTunes Festival with “Coming Up”, he chooses to employ the 2005 set list double salvo of Magical Mystery Tour and Flaming Pie as the opener. The Beatle who wrote ''When I’m Sixty-Four'', now has been there done that. Such is the longevity of Sir Paul McCartney’s music career. McCartney released Memory Almost Full his 21st solo album earlier this year to a resounding response, having sold over a million copies worldwide. His new material embraces his past, present and has him exploring how he would like to be remembered. Still a master at simple melodies, McCartney learnt to play the mandolin for this project, the result being the infectious ''Dance Tonight'' which featured in a high profile iTunes campaign. 40 years after Sgt Pepper’s and keen to explore new directions with his music, McCartney’s appearance at this year’s BBC ELECTRIC PROMS, promises to be a truly memorable event. It is a question all artists must learn to resolve: can their art survive the vicissitudes of their daily lives? Or must domestic disturbance always sap their creative powers? Paul McCartney gives every impression that the traumas of his well-publicised divorce can be subsumed – temporarily at least – by taking to the stage of an evening and zipping effortlessly through his peerless back catalogue. He didn’t exactly put a foot wrong in Thursday’s BBC ELECTRIC PROMS at the Roundhouse, he is too professional for that, but there was something distinctly careworn in his demeanour. He swapped jokes with the rowdier elements in his audience, but they lacked sparkle. His set was almost wilfully perverse in its pacing. It was that sort of evening. “House Of Wax” was the only contemporary song to show any dynamic range. For the most part, McCartney was happier indulging in a mid-tempo groove that made few demands on his occasionally hoarse voice. It is almost as if McCartney constantly feels the need to lighten the load of his classic material with these moments of spontaneous stagecraft, but it all feels a little contrived, and we are left wishing for a more measured treatment of pop music’s greatest songbook. The finale was assured: “Hey Jude” turned into the obligatory sing-along, and then it was classics all the way: “Lady Madonna”, “I Saw Her Standing There”, “Get Back”. On the way out, you'll bump into George Martin with a broad smile on his face, which was probably the most touching moment of the evening. If even he can’t get enough of his erstwhile protégé, then we shouldn’t complain too loudly.
