Damon Albarn and Idris Elba among stars reworking Sir Paul tracks
Damon Albarn (Yui Mok/PA) The first offering is out now and comes from US singer and rapper Dominic Fike who has covered The Kiss Of Venus, turning an acoustic ballad into an R&B-tinged track. McCartney III, which was released in December, followed 1970’s McCartney and 1980’s McCartney II. It went to number one in the UK, marking his first chart-topping album in 31 years. The album, written, performed and produced by Sir Paul, coincided with the 50th anniversary of his first self-titled solo endeavour, which featured Maybe I’m Amazed, Every Night and The Lovely Linda.
