Released: 28 sep 2018 sharing a title with one of paul’s own paintings, egypt station is the first full album of all-new mccartney music since 2013’s international chart-topping new.
preceded by two of its tracks just released as double a-sides--plaintive ballad “i don’t know” and raucous stomper “come on to me”—egypt station was recorded between los angeles, london and sussex, and produced by greg kurstin.
egypt station’s 14 songs combine to convey a unique travelogue vibe.
between the opening and closing instrumentals “station i” and “station ii,” each song finds paul capturing a place or moment before transporting the listener seamlessly to the next destination.
