Paul McCartney Album To Be Given Away With Newspaper

Sir Paul McCartney is to give away his latest album, ‘Memory Almost Full’, with editions of the Mail on Sunday, it’s been announced.

The former Beatle’s album, which was originally released on Starbucks’ Hear Music label last year, will come free with the May 18th edition of the newspaper.

McCartney is the latest big name artist to complete a deal with the paper, who last year gave away Prince’s ‘Planet Earth’ for free.

More recently, UB40 gave fans with a ten track sampler of their new album ‘Twentyfourseven’ as one of the paper's supplements.

When it was released last year, McCartney’s album charted at number five in the UK, selling over 100,000 copies, reports Music Week.

What a sad state the music business has become. Artists who are now in the twilight of their careers are giving away their records in a bid to remain famous and chart active.
