If you’re a Paul McCartney fan and a Starbucks addict then you were in luck. If you’re just the latter, well then you probably weren’t too happy yesterday. Starbucks’ music label, Hear Music, co-founded with Concord Music Group launched its sole artist’s, McCartney, new album, Memory Almost Full, on Tuesday. And to make sure it was adequately squashed into their customers’ mind the album was played non-stop for the full day. Starbucks estimated this method of full force sales to reach 6 million sets of ears. Sadly, that’s only half as many sets of eyes which watched “America’s Got Talent” last night.
McCartney described the new album on his website, “In places, it’s a very personal record and a lot of it is retrospective, drawing from memory, like memories from being a kid, from Liverpool and from summers gone.” Hence the name I suppose with all those memory references. Still sounds kinda creepy though, kinda ‘the end is near’ vibe.
