ONE OF MCCARTNYE'S RAREST EVER UK SINGLE RELEASE!!!
ORIGINAL AND INCREDIBLY RARE 1977 ORIGINAL REGAL ZONOPHONE UK RELEASE.....FACTORY SAMPLE
LESS THAN A MONTH AFTER THE EXCELLENT CHART TOPPING "RAM" ALBUM WAS RELEASED MCCARTNEY FELT THE NEED TO RE-RECORD THE ALBUM AS AN ORCHESTRAL VERSION.
THE RESULTING ALBUM "THRILLINGTON" WAS NOT EVEN ISSUED UNDER HIS OWN NAME BUT AS ONE OF HIS MANY PSEUDONYMS - PERCY "THRILLS" THRILLINGTON AND NOT ONLY THAT BUT IT WASNT RELEASED FOR SIX YEARS AFTER IT WAS RECORDED.
ISSUED ALONG SIDE THE ALBUM WAS THE ONE AND ONLY SINGLE TO BE TAKEN FROM THE ALBUM "UNCLE ALBERT".... BOTH THE SINGLE AND THE ALBUM WHERE RELEASED ON THE EMI/REGAL ZONOPHONE LABEL AND NEITHER RECEIVED HARDLY ANY PUBLICITY OR AIRPLAY, ALSO THE FACT THAT PERCY THRILLINGTON WAS INFACT PAUL MCCARTNEY WAS NEVER PROMOTED. HENCE NEITHER ALBUM OR SINGLE CHARTED IN THE UK AND SALES OF BOTH WERE INCREDIBLY LOW.
