Paul McCartney audio from the recent BBC programme

2005-12-30 by Ken Leonard

Someone sent this tidbit to me - I've seen mention of the programme and the 
pics, but I haven't seen mention of the audio on the list.

www.bbc.co.uk/radio2

Click Listen Again, and scroll down to Paul McCartney - Sold on Song.  Use 
the player buttons to shuttle to the 40 minute mark to save listening to 
the whole show if you wish.  Paul mentions his opinion that the 'tron was 
intended to provide 'music on the cheap' to cabarets before giving a demo 
from the left manual and bursting into song!  I think that it will only be 
available for about a week - only audio unfortunately.

This concert was held in EMI studios, Abbey Road, London.  The 'tron 
certainly raised a few laughs in the audience.  Originally shown on BBC TV 
a couple of weeks ago, and repeated on radio yesterday.  The 'tron looks 
like an SFX console incidentally - grey with a black control fascia.

Thanks for the info, Simon, if you're out here!

I don't do RealAudio (I stopped using it when they put suspectware into it 
(if not spyware)---have they cut that crap out yet?)---did someone happen 
to MP3 this section?

Ciao!
