Paul McCartney - Mega-rare restored vinyl "Scrambled Egg" - Back To The Eggs early takes and interview 1978-xx-xx - Speed corrected and rejoined

I've used BootlegZone as the source of legitimacy for posting this early Christmas present on Dime, as it was the only source I could find for this record. The photos are from the site and show a really dirty copy (mine is cleaner). Sorry about that.

According to BootlegZone, these as-yet unidentified tracks are early versions of "Back To The Egg". I picked this super-rare 7" vinyl in a record store in Milan, Italy in 1989. Unidentified means that exact dates and sessions are unknown, but some tracks are listed as being recorded in July and September 1978. It's a great, humorous set with a fine interview bookmarking the tracks.

This EP ran almost a third of a semitone too fast. That's also been corrected.

Setlist (Run time 17m 52s):

Intro Interview (unknown date and interviewer)
Old Siam, Sir (July 1978)
Arrow Through Me (July 1978)
Winter Rose (unknown)
Love Awake (September 1978)
Hoe Down (unknown)
Outro Interview (unknown date and interviewer)

Lineage: MPL001 LP -> sound Forge ->-34.8 cents speed correction ->Track split up ->FLAC via TLH, level 6, sectors aligned and verified, FLAC integrity checked.

Enjoy!
